Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short Course in Qualitative Analysis In preparing a new edition of this work, the editor has made no essential alternation of the plan adopted by Professor Crafts in the previous editions. He has endeavored, however, as far as possible, to embody the practical results of the great advance made in both theoretical and practical chemistry within the past ten years. The few important changes thereby rendered necessary may be briefly specified. Chapter II., on chemical nomenclature, has been entirely rewritten. The usefulness of the work has been somewhat extended by the introduction of several elements not included in the previous editions, viz.: strontium, cadmium, iodine, and bromine. Further changes have been made in the methods of separation and detection of several of the elements; more reliable processes being substituted for those which in the hands of students were found not to be entirely satisfactory. The editor desires especially to acknowledge his obligation to his friend and colleague, Dr. G. C. Caldwell, for numerous valuable suggestions of which he has availed himself.
