Abstract
A GREAT deal of work has been done by Höber, Cremer and many other investigators on the so-called ‘oil-potential’, that is, the potential difference (P.D.) between two aqueous solutions, separated by some water-insoluble organic fluid. The latter is for abbreviation called the ‘oil’. The simplest type of such a cell is the following, a concentration cell:
