Excerpt from Outlines of Qualitative Chemical Analysis This brief outline of methods in Qualitative Analysis is the outcome of many years' experience in college teaching. While it has been prepared to meet the requirements of that larger class whose concern is chiefly with the disciplinary side of the study or with general preparation for other lines of work, the needs of the specialist in exact analysis have likewise been considered. So far as possible simple methods of treatment are presented; but certainty of result under all circumstances has been made the main issue. To this end, some more elaborate processes, like the basic acetate process for the separation of aluminium, iron, and chromium from the elements of the calcium group, in presence or absence of phosphates, have been introduced in the interest of exactness as well as directness, experience having shown that the properly instructed beginner finds little difficulty and much advantage in such methods, frequently shunned in elementary work though indispensable to the practical chemist.
