The following is the result of the analysis of the inorganic 

 constituents of peas : — 



In the aqueous extract of the carbonized peas 23*61 per cent. 



In the muriatic extract 21-48 ... 



In the ash of the carbonized mass . . . 55-36 ... 



100-45 



The total amount of inorganic constituents of the peas was 

 1-64 per cent. 



Hence the constituents obtained in the three operations 

 were — 



Chloride of potass 

 Chloride of sodiun 

 Potash . . . 

 Soda .... 

 Lime .... 

 Magnesia 

 Peroxide of iron 

 Phosphoric acid 

 Sulphuric acid . 

 Carbonic acid .

 The pea-straw yielded — 



Extracted by water from the carbonized mass 27*00 per cent. 



Extracted by muriatic acid 65-87 ... 



Ash of the residuary carbonized mass . . 7*13 ... 



100*00 



The total amount of inorganic constituents of the pea-straw 

 amounted to 5-25 per cent. 



The constituents obtained in the three divisions of the ana- 

 lysis yielded —
