DETECTION or ACIDS

In lecture on Qualitative ANALYSIS"
delivered before the Boston Polytechnic
institute. Professor John c. Olsen, Ph.D.,
spoke on Thine Detection OF Acids, SAYS
the Brooklyn Citizen. On the table before
him were number OF Jars and retorts,
and each experiment mentioned was A.
lustrated by demonstration made with
the fine new apparatus the Polytechnic
Chemical department. Pointing TO certain
tubes. Professor Olsen said: III the SUBJ
stance is in the water solution tests are
made for acid irons just as in testing
for metals we test for the metallcion.
AS salts in water solution decompose In.
10 acid and basic ions the acid ion gives
the same reaction no matter what the
basic ion may be. Solutions OF barlum
chloride. iron chlorldes. and hydrochloric
acid give the same name white precipi-
tate with silver nitrat solution"
The lecturer then showed that II vas
by no means possible TO have a given met
al present with any given acid. Attempts
To mix sodium carbonate with borium sui
phate resulted in the precipitation Of tho
borium and tho carbonic acid as well as
the lead and the sulphuric acid respec-
lively.
The next experiment shows that the
chemist Is In many cases absolutely un-
able TO say what substances have been
mixed to form solution even after
complete analysis. A solution which gave
tests for sodium. hydrochlorlc acid aud
sulphuric acid by mixing sodium chloride
With sulphuric acid. sulphuric and hydro
chloric acids and sodium carbonate. In
many cases the chemist can only say
what Is present in the solution and can
only guess az which ones ~ number of
substances were used in making the solu-
ton
Another method % testing for acids
depends on the fact that most acids give
