Lessons in Chemistry

Excerpt from Lessons in Chemistry

Most conspicuous among these is the replacement of the frontispiece by and entirely new plate of spectra which, it is believed, is greatly supervisor to the old one, and includes also the more characteristic spectra of gaseous elements.

In preparing the present edition, the aim has been chiefly to make such corrections and arrangement, which have proved satisfactory in the experience of the editor as well as that of the author, have not been materially modified: a few of the chapters have been partly rewritten, and a brief explanation of streoisomerism is given in the Appendix.
