Page 23 - By dividing the weight of the gas by the weight of the air, we find the specific gravity of the gas as compared with the air.
Page 185 - If a solution of barium chloride is added to a solution of a sulphate, what takes place ? 5.
Page 44 - Kerr effect. kettle stitch In hand-binding, a special end stitch taken near the head and foot of each section to lock the sewing thread after it passes down the fold, linking adjacent sections through their folds and producing two rows of kettle stitches perpendicular to the binding edge, one near the top and the other at the bottom of the spine. In some editions, a shallow groove called a kerf is cut into the binding edge at each end of the spine to recess the kettle stitching. Synonymous with catch...
Page 62 - Volume of an element, as a gas, is the same as the molecular volume of hydrogen at the same temperature and pressure.
Page 145 - These are usually termed the laws of chemical combination. (9) The first of these laws is the law of Definite Proportions, which although of great simplicity, is one of fundamental importance to the science of chemistry. This law may be stated in very few words ; it is as follows — In every chemical compound the nature and the proportions of its constituent elements are fixed, definite, and invariable. For instance, 100 parts of water contain 88•9 of oxygen and 1 1 • 1 of hydrogen.
Page 94 - How much pure air ought to be mixed with 100 measures of firedamp (marsh gas) in a coal-mine, in order to supply material for the complete combustion of the marsh gas during explosion ? CHLORINE.
Page 31 - Into this tube, standing over water, pass about half a cubic inch of a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen gases ; in the proportion of two measures of the former to one of the latter. Hold the tube firmly, and pass an electric spark through the mixed gases.
Page 146 - Each elementary substance in combining with other elements, or in displacing others from their combinations, does so in a fixed proportion, which may be represented numerically.
Page 146 - ... each are very simply related. The law of multiple proportion may be thus stated: — If two elements, A and B, unite together in more proportions than one, on comparing together quantities of the different compounds, each of which contains the same amount of A, the quantities of B will bear a very simple relation to each other ; such as...
