Abstract
THE effect of anions on the R F value of cations is in most cases ignored, since little interaction has ever been found to exist. Pollard et al. 1 refer to the different R F'S of various cupric salts and also demonstrate that lead, sodium and potassium move separately from their respective anions. Lederer2 states that butanol saturated with 0.5 N ammonium hydroxide keeps halide salts completely in the ionic form and that they move as ions. Others3 have noted different R F' with several salts of acetylcholine.
