This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1830 edition. Excerpt: ...proper metallic oxides, would be covered by these characters, e. g. the oxides of columhium, titanium and cerium; but still, most of our artificial divisions, fail of rigorous exactness; the oxides themselves graduate into the acids, but no one for that reason thinks, of blending them. There can be no good objection to dividing the numerous class of oxides into convenient orders, which are also in a great measure natural. See Introduction, p. 3. e.) Not volatile by any heat hitherto applied. Form soaps with oils. g. In common with the other earths, combine with acids and form sa.lts. EARTH OF A MIXED CHARACTER-iNAMELY, MAGNESIA a. Not acrid or caustic. b. Applied in substance, affects the vegetable colors. c. Nearly insoluble in water, but absorbs it. d.) Equally difficult to fuse as lime, not volatile. e.) Combines readily with acids to form salts. Combines indirectly with oils to form soap. Destitute of alkaline properties, except that (a.) They unite with acids, and form salts; silica combines permanently with only one acid; i. e. the fluoric. b.) Insoluble in water; but most of them absorb it. c.) Tasteless, innoxious, inodorous. rl.) No effect on test colors. e.) Very diflicult to melt, but less so than the alkaline earths; still the alkaline earths are powerful fluxes of the earths proper, and of common metallic oxides. Not volatile by heat. g.) In their pure state, do not combine with oils to form soap. 1. Drscovnnr.-Familiarly known from the remotest ages. 2. Pnnranarron.. "(a.) By thoroughly igniting, in a good furnace, in a covered crucible, small fragments of marble, chalk, I or shells, or other pure calcareous carbonate of lime, (Carrara and Parian marble are preferred, ) these substances lose half their weight or more in...
