 Muriatic extract. — It was composed of- 



287 



100-00 

 Part of the phosphoric acid is combined with the bases in 

 the form of b- and part in that of a-phosphates. It is not 

 easy to explain why these are not extracted from the carbo- 

 nized mass with the other a-phosphates by water. The cal- 

 culated salts are — 



Bibasic phosphate of potash . 

 Monobasic phosphate of potash 

 Monobasic phosphate of soda . 

 Bibasic phosphate of lime . . 

 Bibasic phosphate of magnesia 

 Perphosphate of iron . . . 

 Sulphate of potash ....

The phosphate of lime is in this case assumed as having 

 the same composition as that precipitated from the muriatic 

 solution by ammonia.
