Inorganic General, Medical and Pharmaceutical Chemistry, Theoretical and Practical: A Text-Book and Laboratory Manual, Containing Theoretical, ... Chemistry, Vol. 1 of 2 (Classic Reprint)

The laws and conditions which govern chemical reactions and their direction, velocity and relative approach to completion have been treated of in the first volume, including the necessary conditions of success in preparation work so far as they may be indicated by general principles. The materials and methods employed for the production of inorganic pharmaceutical preparations were pointed out in a general way, the subject of oxidation and reduction was fully discussed, and the use of chemical equations and stoechiometry explained and exemplified. Part I of the second volume discusses more fully the intelligent choice of methods, materials and apparatus, and the practical manipulations of actual laboratory operations in the production of inorganic preparations, and Part II contains detailed descriptions of the modes of preparation of five hundred inorganic chemicals. These processes should be of practical value to pharmacists and manufacturing chemists as well as to teachers and students. Chemical laboratory work in the schools has in the past been almost exclusively analytical work; but the at least equal value and importance of practical work in the production of chemical compounds is now fully recognized.
