...: 49-73 oxide of copper : : 501-17 sulphuric acid : X =495-7 equivalent of oxide of copper. 199. As the equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its elements, it is easy, when the number is known, to calculate the number of the equivalents of each...

...quantity which unites with an equivalent of any acid, in order to form a neutral salt. • 194. As the equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its elements, it is easy, when the number is known, to calculate the number of the equivalents of each...

...substance, or the number of equivalents of each constituent contained in one equivalent of the compound. The equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its constituents; if, therefore, the equivalent of a compound be 100, the per-centage amount of any one...

...also unite with potash and form a bicarbonate, or a double carbonate of potash. The equivalent number of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its elements. Take, for example, carbonate of potash in which the equivalent number of the elements are...

...grs. of soda are required. Hence, 31 is the equivalent of the base, soda or oxide of sodium. Since the equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its constituents, it follows, that if we know the equivalent of a compound and the relative proportions...

...= 3P Hyponitrous acid - - - 14 + 24 = 38 Nitrous acid - - - - 14 + 32 = 46 Nitric acid 14 + 40 = 54 The equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its elements : thus the equivalent of carbonic oxide is 14, this number being the sum of 6 and 8 : thus...

...the proportions remain unchanged. It is only the equivalent of arsenic which requires to be altered.* The equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the...potassium, 39, and 1 eq. of oxygen, 8, its equivalent is 39 -f- 8 = 47. Sulphuric acid is composed of J eq. of sulphur, 16, and 3 eq. of oxygen, 24 ; and, consequently,...

...compound body will of course be compound, as an atom of water, or of sulphuric acid; so also, the chemical equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its constituents; thus the equivalent of water is 9 (8-j-1); that of sulphuric acid 40 (16+24) ; and so...

...body will of course be compound, as an atom of water, or of sulphuric acid ; so also, the chemical equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its constituents; thus the equivalent of water is 9 (8-fl); that of sulphuric acid 40 (16+24) ; and so...

...with nitrogen and sulphur, to which we refer. Another necessary consequence would be the law, that the equivalent of a compound body is the sum of the equivalents of its components, for since the atoms are indivisible, the compound atom produced by their union must have...
