P.S. Wollen Sie gütigst Herrn Bredig folgendes übermitteln? Ohne Zweifel sind Salze wie Anilinchlorhydrat in 1/50 Lösung zu ein oder paar Prozent hydrolysiert. Dadurch entsteht eine grosse Korrektion im Endwert μ ∞, welches wiederum stark auf die Berechnung des Dissozationsgrades von Wasser einwirkt. Dadurch wird Bredigs Ziffer stark vermindert werden und sich meinen und Wyss‘ Wert annähern.
From Dr. Arrhenius
P.S. Would you kindly convey the following news to Mr. Bredig? Undoubtedly, salts like aniline chlorohydrate are hydrolyzed at one or a few percent in 1/50 solution. This yields a substantial correction in the final value μ ∞, which in turn has a strong effect on the calculation of the degree of water dissociation. As a result, Mr. Bredig's value will decrease and will come closer to the one determined by me and Mr. Wys.
From Dr. Arrhenius
