Manual of Qualitative Chemical Analysis (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from Manual of Qualitative Chemical Analysis

During the fourteen years that have elapsed since the appearance of the last American edition of this work, two revised German editions (the fifteenth and sixteenth) have been published, embracing so many additions and other improvements that the need of a new translation has been felt. With the consent of the author (given only a few months before his death), and also with the permission of Prof. S. W. Johnson, editor of the preceding American editions, this translation has therefore been undertaken.

Except in regard to nomenclature and chemical formulas, the present work faithfully represents the recent sixteenth German edition. The example of the previous American issue has been followed in giving modern chemical formulas (fresenius, in recent editions, has given both old and new), and in modernizing the greater part of the nomenclature. The few additions made to the text are enclosed in brackets, in nearly all cases.
