Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chemistry for Young People After this general acquaintance is secured, the commoner elements are taken up, and the reader is told those more important. Facts about each which should be known, even to one who desires no ex pert knowledge of their qualities. After obtain ing such general knowledge of these elements, their qualities and their uses, the reader is led to enter a little more deeply into the greater principles that enable us to understand their action one upon an other, and to become acquainted with the Periodi cal Tables wherein the relations of all elements to one another is shown to depend upon their atomic weight. These relations include the subjects of valence, of atomic heat, and, generally, of chemical action as classified by modern chemists. To the enormous subject of organic chemistry, or the chemistry of carbon compounds, but one chapter is given; but in this are set forth such general laws and rules as enable the reader to comprehend the complexity of the subject and the methods by which chemists are able to make new compounds and to predict their qualities. After this general review of the subject, there follows a discussion of the history of chemistry and of its relation to human progress, which con tains, though in brief form, the important facts enabling young readers to know the importance of the part played by modern scientific chemistry in practical life. Then follows a set of tables which give in a complete way the essential facts in relation to all elements, thus completing those tables which in the earlier part of the book are confined to the more familiar elements.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on the Science of Human Life Thus, of those foims of mattei which in chemistry are at present considered elements, different aggregations of the same molecules make substances not only of entiiely ditierent natures, but of propemes as different as those of aquafortis and the ba! My air which we breathe; of sugar and vinegar; otcha1coal and diamond. And thus again, by differently arranging the same molecules of matter, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and other colors and tints are produced; and in like manner, are formed the most flagrant and most offensive odor; and the different qualities of sweet and sour and bitter, etc. And there are reasons for believing that light and heat, and electricity and magnetism, instead of being essentially different substances, are but the results of particular aggregations or arrangements and conditions of the same primary atoms of matter.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Experimental Guide to Chemistry Since then there are numerous occupations in life where this knowledge is indispensable and as a branch of general information, it possesses claims upon all intelligent persons; it is not surprising that it should become more and more studied every day, and that it should now be so much introduced into schools, where it answers most fully the double purpose of recreation and instruction. When Chemistry shall have its due rank assigned to it, as one of the most valuable branches of human knowledge, there cannot be a doubt that this will be still more universally the case.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chemistry in the Service of Man But the end and aim of chemistry is not merely material. Chemistry offers its contribution also to the deeper interests of the human mind. Occupied as he is with the study of material substances and of the marvellous transformations which he is able to bring about in them, the thinking chemist is forced to look below the surface of things and to seek an answer to the fundamental questions relating to the ultimate constitution and structure of matter, and to the forces which govern the changes and transformations which he observes in his laboratory, or which are wrought out in the larger laboratory of Nature. The study, not merely of the products but also of the principles and laws underlying the processes of chemical change, forms the work of the modern chemist. 'in its wider sweep, chemistry ignores the conventional and artificial frontiers which mark it off from the other branches of science, more especially physics; and in the last quarter of a century there has been no more fruitful region of experimental and speculative activity than that common territory where the sciences of chemistry and physics overlap.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Elementary Study of Chemistry Since the study of nature is divided in this way for mere convenience, and not because there is any division in nature itself, it often happens that the different sciences are very intimately related, and a thorough knowledge of any one of them involves a considerable acquaintance with several others. Thus the botanist must know something about animals as well as about plants; the student of human physiology must know something about physics as well as about the parts of the body.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chemical Relations of the Human Body With Surrounding Agents: A Lecture Introductory to a Course on Medical Chemistry in the Medical Department of Pennsylvania College, for the Session of 1845-46 These are respectively composed of carbon and oxygen, and of hydro gen and oxygen, so that it is plain that carbon and hydrogen are the elements, which, meeting the inspired oxygen, form new compounds with it within the body, and are conveyed again into the exterior world through the lungs. This carbon and hydrogen of the organic tissue, having been removed by the agency of oxygen, must again be replaced by food containing the same elements. Thus it becomes evident that a large portion of the nutritive substances which we con sume, goes to sustain the process of respiration, and that the amount of such nutrition must be proportioned to that of the oxygen inspired - else the excess of the elements of respiration must produce repletion of the system, or a superabundance of oxygen, a proportionate waste of fibre, and in either case acting injuriously upon the healthy functions.

Download or read book Practical Physiological Chemistry Classic Reprint written by Sydney William Cole and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Physiological Chemistry MY colleague's book, in its earlier editions, received so hearty and so general a welcome that any personal words of recommendation seem now uncalled for. In this edition, however, it emerges as a work of a somewhat different order. Like all good books which deal with a progressive subject, it has felt the growth impulse, and, notwithstanding the exceptional nature of the times, material for growth has during the last few years accumulated in abundance. If this edition has largely out grown its predecessors the increase is not only desirable, but, in my Opinion, necessary. Progress in any science calls continuously for new methods, and for extension and improvement in technique. In the growth of any branch of knowledge there are, indeed, periods when the development of technique becomes the most pressing of needs, and its success the best measure of progress. Biochemistry has been successfully passing through such a period. Its methods have been greatly multiplied, extended and improved. We are now beginning to reap the reward in the accumulation of accurate quantitative data. One need peculiar to biochemistry, that of following changes in living tissues without terminating the life of the animal, or harming the human subject, has now been largely met, at least so far as studies of the blood are concerned. This is due to the success of micro-methods of analysis. 80 significant are some of the results which can be obtained that we may hope to see the methods become as general in connexion with medical diagnosis as the use of the stethoscope or the electrocardiogram.

Taken literally means, that branch of science, which treats of the composition of living substances in both man and animal, and of the pro cesses of their formation. Today we find the definition of Bio chemistry has resolved itself into a science, which treats of the composition of the bodies of animals and vegetables, the pro cess by which the different fluids and tissues are formed, the nature and causes of the abnormal conditions called disease, and the restoration of health by supplying to the body the deficient minerals. The chemical composition of nearly every fluid and tissue in the human body has long been known, but until Bio-chemistry was introduced, no practical use had been made of this knowledge in the treatment of the sick.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chemistry of Plant Life Second, the purpose of the writer will not have been fully accomplished unless the book shall serve also as a stimulus to further study in a fascinating field. Even the most casual perusal of many of its chapters cannot fail to make clear how incomplete is our present knowledge of the chemical changes by which the plant cell performs many of the processes which result in the pro duction of so many substances which are vital to the comfort and pleasure of human life. Studies of the chemistry of animal life have resulted in many discoveries of utmost importance to human life and health. It requires no great stretch of the imagination to conceive that similar studies of plant life might result in similar or even greater benefit to human life, or society, since it is upon the results of plant growth that we are dependent for most of our food, clothing, and fuel, as well as for many of the luxuries Of life.

This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chemistry of Life and Health The vast importance of the study of the Laws of Health is becoming so generally recognised that in the future no System of Education will be considered complete which does not embrace this subject in its curriculum. Great difficulties, however, present themselves to the average reader of works on Hygiene, bemuse an acquaint ance with various branches of Natural Science is necessary in order to follow intelligently certain portions of such books. Thus it is impossible to understand clearly the important changes going on in respiration without some knowledge of the structure of the lungs, and the nature of the gases taking part in the process. I have endeavoured in this little book to remove these difficulties by giving sufficient information on the particular portions of the sciences involved to enable readers, other than experts, to appreciate fully the fundamental principles of Hygiene. Considerable prominence has been given to the chemical changes which play such an important part in questions of Life and Health, and also to the impurities which occur in air, water, and articles of diet, and the methods which should be adopted for their detection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chemical Atlas: Or the Chemistry of Familiar Objects Of the value and importance of some such plan of illustrating Chemistry there can be no longer a doubt. Indeed, the surprise almost universally expressed is, that something of the kind was not devised and adopted long ago. The superiority of the eye over all other senses, as a means of edu cation, is undeniable. The beginning of the intellectual progress of the human race consisted in the invention of letters and words as visible symbols of sound and thought and to teach those symbols remains still the starting point of education. So also with music it rose to the dignity of a regular art only when musical notes were invented. By which it became possible to express harmonies of sound to the eye. The symbolism in both cases is perfectly arbitrary nevertheless, when once acquired, it becomes an instrument of wonderful intellectual power. But if the mind is capable of being thus greatly aided by ocular signs, when there is no natural relation between them and the objects they represent, how much more must its power be multiplied when the symbols it employs assume the pictorial character, and become in a manner actual imitations of the things to be considered.
