PHOSPHORUS: Left segment 50 atoms Right segment 43 " -- 93 6 funnels of 93 atoms 558 Atomic weight 30.77 Number weight 558/18 31.00 ARSENIC (Plate XIV, 2) resembles aluminium in having eight internal sub-divisions in a funnel, and the ovoids which form the top ring are identical, save for a minute difference that in aluminium the ovoids stand the reverse way from those in arsenic. It will be noted that in the former the top and bottom triangles of atoms have the apices upwards, and the middle one has its apex downwards. In arsenic, the top and bottom ones point downwards, and the middle one upwards. Arsenic inserts sixteen spheres between the ovoids and globe shown in aluminium, and thus adds no less than one hundred and forty-four atoms to each funnel. ARSENIC: 6 funnels of 225 atoms 1350 Atomic weight 74.45 Number weight 1350/18 75.00 ANTIMONY (Plate XIV, 3) is a close copy of indium, and the arrangement of types A and B in the funnels is identical. In the middle rings of both A and B a triplet is substituted for a unit at the centre of the larger globe. In the lowest body of type A the "cigar" has vanished, and is represented by a seven-atomed crystalline form.

BORON (Plate III, 4, and Plate XI, 1). [Illustration] The disintegration of boron is very simple: the funnels are set free and assume the spherical form, showing a central "cigar" and four globes each containing two triplets. The central globe is also set free with its four quintets, and breaks at once in two. On the meta level the "cigar" breaks up as usual, and the triplets separate. On the hyper level, the "cigar" follows its usual course, and the triplets become duads and units. The globe forms two quintets on the meta level, and these are resolved into triplets and duads. SCANDIUM (Plate XI, 2). In funnel A the "cigar" and the ovoids behave as in boron, but the "balloon," _a_ 110 (XI, 4), escapes from the funnel as it changes to a sphere, and holds together on the proto level; on the meta, it yields six globes each containing seven duads, and these are all set free as duads on the hyper level; the ovoid is also set free on the meta level becoming a sphere, and on the hyper level liberates its contained bodies, as two triplets, two quartets and two sextets.
