Notes:
Experimental molecular weights in the range 200 to 100,000 Daltons have been determined by vapor pressure osmometry using three different solvents. For all values in excess of 10,000, molecular weights were also determined by membrane osmometry. The general agreement found for molecular weights determined under a variety of conditions, leads to the conclusion that values as high as 100,000 Daltons can be determined by at least one type of vapor pressure osmometer when it is calibrated with a material of 200 Daltons. Thermistor self-heating and diffusion in the liquid phase are shown to be unimportant for this particular instrument.
