Magnetic susceptibilities of a number of pure mercuric and mercurous salts of inorganic and organic acids have been measured and it has been shown that Ikenmeyer's relation does not hold true in these compounds. A linear relation has been established between the molecular susceptibilities of salts of Mg, Zn, Cd, and Hg (ic) containing the same anion and the number of electrons contained in the cations. The significance of this relation is discussed in detail primarily with a view to finding out the susceptibilities of mercuric and mercurous ions.
