The next table contains the known combinations of oxygen with sulphur, 



forming oxides and acids : 



Sulphurous anhydride, aset. 



Sulphurous acid, elasit. 



Sulphuric anhydride, asit. 



Nordhausen sulphuric acid, alese.at. 

 Sulphuric acid (oil of vitriol), elasot. 

 Trithronic anhydride, isut. 



Hyposulphurous acid, elesit. 



Hyposulphuric acid, eleseat. 



Trithionic acid, eliseat. 



Tetrathionic acid, eloseat. 



Peutathionic acid, eluseat. 



In these acids or salts of hydrogen, el may replaced by a dyad metal, or, 

 atom for atom, by a monad metal, thus forming metallic salts.

A few other terminals of salts may be thus briefly enumerated, a monad 

 metal being denoted by am :
