Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of the Chemical Society of London, 1868, Vol. 21 In an early essay shown to friends privately, but never printed, he established the fact that bisulphate of potash con sists of sulphate of potassium combined with sulphate of hydrogen. Thence he assumed that all the acid salts are similarly constituted, for example, the bichromate of potash. On experiment, he found that this salt contained no hydrogen, and belonged to a class containing more than one equivalent of acid without the elements of water. He, consequently, lost faith in his theories, and shrunk from their consequences. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
