Página 13 - Affinity but with one of the compounding fubftances only. To produce fuch an effecl:, it is fufficient that one of the two compounding fubftances have to the third body a Relation equal, or nearly equal, to that which it has to the other compounding fubftance with which it is already combined. Thence it follows, that two fubftances, which, when apart from all others, are incapable of contracting any union, may be rendered capable of incorporating together in fome meafure, and becoming parts of the...

For after our utmost endeavours to purify them, the earths we obtain from different compounds are found to have different properties according to the different bodies from which they are procured, or else, if those earths...

This order, which I have laid down for my rule, hath obliged me to begin with examining the most simple substances that we know and...
Página 9 - It produces no change in its state, whether of solidity or fluidity ; go that a solid body does not become fluid by the accession of the Phlogiston, and vice versa ; the solid bodies to which it is joined being only rendered thereby more apt to be fused by the force of the culinary fire. 3. We can convey it from the body with which it is joined, into another body, so that it shall enter into the composition thereof, and remain fixed in it.

The fame thing may alfo happen even when the third fubftance hath no Affinity but with one of the compounding fubftances only.

Página 1 - The Object, and chief End of Chymistry is to separate the different substances that enter into the composition of bodies; to examine each of them apart; to discover their properties and relations; to decompose those very substances, if possible; to compare them together, and combine them with others; to reunite them again into one body, so as to reproduce the original compound with all its properties; or even to produce new compounds that never existed among the works of nature, from mixtures of...

If an acid be poured into a solution of this combination of gold and liver of sulphur, the acid unites with the alkali of the ' hepar,' and the gold falls to the bottom of the liquor along with the sulphur, which doth not quit it. The sulphur thus precipitated with the gold is easily carried off by a slight torréfaction, after which the gold remains exceedingly comminuted. " The sulphur of this compound may also be destroyed by...

This effect, whatever be its caufe, will enable us to account for, and connect together, all the phenomena that Chymiftry produces. The nature of this univerfal affection...
