Excerpt from Experiments Arranged for Students in General Chemistry This little work is designed as a guide for beginners in chemistry. The authors have found the course of instruction as arranged in the following pages productive of good; its object is not to dispense with the supervision of an instructor, but rather to assist him. The present edition differs from its predecessors in that new experiments have been introduced, while others described in former editions have been modified in accordance with the experience obtained in the daily use of the book with large classes. Although reference is frequently made to Richter's "Inorganic Chemistry," fifth edition, any other text-book on the subject can be employed in its stead. The experiments have been collected from various sources, and no claim is made for originality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
