Catalytic Poisons and Magnetic Susceptibility

Abstract
A finely divided sample of palladium powder (prepared by reduction of palladium chloride in glycerine by hydrogen gas at 150 C.) was evacuated in an ampoule at 150 C, sealed off, and its susceptibility measured by the Sucksmith method3. The ampoule was then reattached to the vacuum apparatus and the palladium saturated with dimethyl sulphide gas at 20 C. The amount adsorbed was measured, the ampoule resealed and measured in the magnetic balance. Column 2 of the accompanying table shows the change in susceptibility of the palladium powder expressed as a percentage change on the original value ?.
