Excerpt from Chemistry in Its Relation to the Arts and ManufacturesThe possibility of producing our own sugar supply from beets is at present loom i'ng large in the public' eye. Given a proper supply of home-grown beets, there is no reason why the industry should not, in time, become a very large one. The chem istry of the sugars has now reached a high state of perfection, and much is known regarding the different kinds of sugars. Nevertheless...

Excerpt from The Action of Nitrate of Silver on Disodium Orthophosphate in Dilute SolutionIt will be seen from (1) and (a). Which are typical of a large number of determinations, that the endpoint occurs at a stage in the reaction where only a partial separation of the phosporie acid as the silver salt has taken place. The resulting solution is acid to litmus, which acidity is due to the dihydrogen sodium orthophosphate no free nitric acid cou...
