By methods which need not be described here , the whole of the gas which is in
the flask and exit tube when the experiment is finished is driven into the
graduated cylinder . The white solid in the flask is now weighed ; the small
quantity of air ...

Neither iron nor sulphur has yet been separated into unlike parts ; the methods
which succeed in separating iron sulphide into iron and sulphur fail to separate
iron or sulphur into kinds of matter different from iron or sulphur . Bromine

The property possessed by hydrogen of diffusing four times more rapidly than
oxygen through a porous plate gave us a method for approximately separating a
mixture of hydrogen and oxygen into its constituents . But if a compound is to be ...
