Excerpt from Laboratory Exercises in General Chemistry This pamphlet claims to present nothing that is new and untried. Beginners in chemistry need such experiments as give certain and well-defined results. The pamphlet has been prepared to use in the laboratory in connection with Storer & Lindsay's "Manual of Chemistry" in the class room, hence the greater number of the experiments have been drawn from that work, yet many from other sources have been included. A large number of manuals have been examined in the preparation of the pamphlet, but the compiler is particularly indebted to those of Williams and Remsen. The raison d'etre for tho book is simply that of facilitating work in the laboratory by having before the student only such matter as is necessary for the work in hand. It has been the endeavor of the compiler to include only such experiments as are truly instructive and well illustrate the subject, and which lead up easily and naturally to a knowledge of the science. The book is to be used in a laboratory in which an instructor is always present with the class to furnish such individual direction as may be necessary. Most of the experiments should be performed on the lecture table before they are attempted by the student. Any text-book may be consulted outside the laboratory; in the laboratory itself no other book than this is allowed.
