Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a systematic outline of chemistry focused on non-metals, providing a foundation for understanding the chemical composition of matter. The book begins by examining the historical origins of chemistry, where scientists first began to observe and experiment with the composition of matter. The author then guides the reader through the fundamental principles of chemistry by performing varied experiments and classifying observations. The reader will learn about the properties of gases, compounds of hydrogen with oxygen and sulfur, oxides and oxy-acids of halogens, as well as the properties of various elements such as carbon and silicon. The author also discusses chemical calculations and the importance of understanding the nature of chemical reactions, including the conservation of energy and the law of definite and multiple proportions. The book concludes by exploring the broader context of chemistry, such as its relationship to physics and the impact of experimental inquiry on our understanding of the world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book determines atomic weights, which are critical to classifying chemical compounds. As the main measure of an element's presence in a molecule, atomic weight plays a central role in chemistry. The author presents methods for direct and indirect determination of atomic weights. By examining the composition and volume relations of gaseous compounds and related physical properties, the author demonstrates the calculation and estimation of the atomic weight of individual elements. The significance of this book lies not only in its detailed overview of atomic weight determination but also for its insight into period systems and the periodic table, predicting the existence of undiscovered elements and their properties.
