 the Manipulations common to a great number of Analyses. 



Ch. II. On the Analysis of Gases — Distinctive Properties of 

 the Gases : § 1 . A Gas being given, how to ascertain its nature : 

 § 2. A Mixture of Gases being given, to determine what they 

 are. Analysis of a Mixture of two Gases, — one comprised in 

 the series oxvgen, hydrogen, carbureted hydrogen, phosphureted 

 hydrogen, arsenureted hydrogen, oxide of carbon, azote, deut- 

 oxide and protoxide of azote : and the other, in the series, 

 nitrous, sulphurous, muriatic, fluo-boric, hydriodic, siUcated 

 fluoric, carbo- muriatic, oxymuriatic, hyperoxymuriatic, and car- 

 bonic acids, sulphureted hydrogen, tellureted hydrogen, and am- 

 monia. — Analysis of a Mixture of two Gases belonging to the first 

 of the two preceding series. — Analysis of a Mixture of two Gases 

 belonging to the second of the two preceding series. — Analysis of 

 a Mixture of three Gases, the one absorbable by alkalies, and the 

 two others not absorbable by those bodies. — Analysis of a Mix- 

 ture of five Gases, not absorbable by alkalies ; namely, Hydrg- 

 gen, Azote, Oxygen, carbureted Hydrogen, Oxide of Carbon. 



Analysis of a Mixture of four Gases, absorbable by alkalies.
