[41] AgNO3 + KAgCy2 = 2 AgCy + KNO3.
[42] AgNO3 + KI = AgI + KNO3.
[43] See pp. 322, 323, and 324 for a description of the methods for measuring the quantity of acid or alkali.
[44] KCN + HCl = KCl + HCN
[45] Taking 16.0 grams of ore, each c.c. = 1 lb. of soda to the short ton. The corresponding figures for the long ton are 12.544 grams for lime and 17.92 grams for soda.
[46] In which case each .01 gram of metal found equals 1 lb to the short ton of solution.
[47] 100 c.c. of water dissolves 0.66 gram of the salt; it is almost insoluble in alcohol or in solutions of ammonic chloride.
[48] According to Personne mercuric chloride is not volatilised from boiling solutions when alkaline chlorides are present.
[49] The solution should contain about 0.25 gram of mercury, and a large excess of nitric acid must be avoided.
