Transcriber’s Notes
Inconsistent and unusual spelling and hyphenation (including those of proper and geographical names) have been retained, except as mentioned below.
Depending on the hard- and software used and their settings, not all elements may display as intended.
Hyperlinks have been provided for explicit internal references, except where the intended target is unclear or non-existent, or where the reference may refer to multiple targets.
Texts in a dotted box have been transcribed from the illustration for the sake of clarity.
Lists of elements were printed both with and without separating commas (for example, R´´ = Ca, Fe´´, Be and R´ = NH₄,K,Rb,Cs); these have not been standardised.
Pages 34, weighing 200 lb.: later (page 41) referred to as weighing 300 lb.
Some tables appear to use nm, others Å; this has not been standardised.
Page 181, table: 5923·35 may be an error; it is out of sequence.
