Excerpt from A Compend of Inorganic Chemistry
Chemistry is that science which investigates the laws governing the movements of the atoms and molecules of which all things, animate and inanimate, are composed; and has been divided into organic and in organic. The first named dealing with the carbon compounds that are or have been impressed with life force. The second confines itself to inani mate existence.
All substances may be divided chemically into compound and simple. A compound body can be separated and its constituents shown; a simple one cannot. Elementary or simple bodies are 68 in number, and differ widely in their normal physical condition; thus, some are gases, one is a liquid, but the greater number are solids.
