Excerpt from A Systematic Handbook of Volumetric Analysis, or the Quantitative Estimation of Chemical Substances by Measure, Applied to Liquids, Solids, and Gases: Adapted to the Requirements of Pure Chemical Research, Pathological Chemistry, Pharmacy, Metallurgy, Manufacturing, Chemistry, Photography, Etc., And for the Valuation of Substances Used in Commerce, Agriculture, and the Arts
The five years which have elapsed since the publication of the second edition of this work, have resulted in the production of some new methods in Volumetric Analysis, together with the verification and improvement of those previously in use. I have endeavoured to embody in the present edition all such novelties and modifications as experiment have proved to be worthy of notice.
The book has been out of print nearly two years, owing to lack of time and the pressure of other matters, so that the necessary experiments for verification of results could not be carried out. I regret that there is still much to be done in the minute examination of individual processes, for it is only by careful detailed investigation of methods that their merits or demerits can be established.
The important sections on the Analysis of Potable Waters and Sewage, 76, 77, 78, originally contributed to the second edition by Mr. W. Thorp, B.se., late principal assistant chemist to the Royal Commission on the Pollution of Rivers, have been thoroughly revised, and considerably augmented, by that gentleman.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to volumetric analysis, a technique which revolutionized quantitative chemical science. Volumetric analysis provides simpler, faster, and more accurate methods of determining the composition of substances than earlier gravimetric methods, and has numerous applications in pure and applied chemistry, from medicine to metallurgy. The author was pivotal in developing volumetric analysis techniques, and presents methods for using the technique in the quantitative analysis of a range of substances, including water, sewage, and various commercial products. The book discusses methodologies for dealing with variable temperatures, using different types of flasks and pipettes, and accurately reading graduated instruments. It also addresses the preparation of standard solutions, and systematically describes the processes for analyzing numerous substances, including alkalis, acids, salts, and various metals. The techniques for using volumetric analysis described in this book are still used by chemists today, and this edition includes insights and improvements developed by practitioners over the years. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of chemistry, or in understanding the techniques used to determine the composition of a substance. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Codice articolo 9781528200622_0
