It is hghter thanRa, but still verv hea^y. The atomic weight of the lost hehum being fourunits and that of radium 226-4, the new substance has an atomic weight of226-4 - 4 or 222-4. It has been called the emanation, and is itself radio-active. Radium emanation can be collected, transferred, and generallymanipulated like any other gas, and the apparatus for this purpose is shownin Figs. 221 and 222.
