ABSTRACT
Elements in an electric field carry ions. The interelectrode transfer of ions in gases was determined by the change in the mass of the melt, the electricity produced, and the electric field strength at different polarities of the melt. If the interelectrode transfer of elements coincides with evaporation, the measured mass change is greater than the interelectrode transfer and less when the opposite occurs. The interelectrode transfer, determined by the change in the mass of the melt, is equal to the product of the number and atomic mass of the transferred ion. The number of ions corresponded to the production of the past electricity and the proportion of ions. The proportion of ions was determined by the ratio of the ion’s velocity to the sum of its velocity and the electron’s velocity. The ion velocity was found by the product of the mobility and electric field strength. The mobility of ions was calculated from the known movements of alkali metals close in atomic mass. The electron velocity in gases depends mainly on the electric field strength, its values are given in the literature. The atomic mass of ions of the transported elements was determined by the interelectrode transfer of ions and their electricity. The transfer of elements occurred from the surface layers at lower ionization potentials than those of the filler gases. Reducing the speed of mass transfer from copper and silver melts with an increase in the inter-electrode voltage makes it necessary to clean the surface. When the speed was constant, the melt cleaning ended and the transfer of its own metal ions began. The sufficient reliability of certain interelectrode transfers is confirmed by the multiple numerical correspondence of the atomic masses of the transferred ions to the atomic weight of the elements and the molecular compounds of the equilibrium melts.
