4. Summary
The paper reports the results of an investigation on the Raman spectra of eleven solid hydroxides using the λ 2536·5 resonance radiation of mercury arc for the excitation of the Raman effect. The cases studied (most of them for the first time) consist of the hydroxides of Li, Na and K and their monohydrates, the hydroxides of Ca, Mg and Al, and the octahydrated hydroxides of Sr and Ba. The facts of observation are discussed in relation to the crystal structure and the infra-red absorption data of these crystals in two separate parts following this paper.
