Abstract
THIS book embodies the material usually included in a complete course of elementary instruction in Quantitative analysis. It is divided into five parts. Part I. treats of the balance, the determination of physical constants, the purification of substances, and preliminary analytical processes generally. The more important simple gravimetric estimations are grouped in Part II.; and are followed, in Part III., by descriptions of the methods and the more common determinations comprised under volumetric analysis. In Part IV. are classed more complex exercises, involving both gravimetric and volumetric processes. Here are to be found analyses of ores, technical products, fuel, articles of food and drink, including complete analyses of milk, butter, sugar, and partial analyses of wine, beer, and tea. The valuations of tannins and soaps are next given, and the part concludes with a section on the typical methods of organic analysis. Part V. is devoted to a description of the ordinary methods of technical gas analysis.
