Excerpt from Elements of Chemistry, Vol. 2 of 2: For the Use of Colleges, Academies, and Schools § 732. Although the metals described in the second part of this work are never technically employed in the metallic state, they still find very extensive application in the state of various compounds, all of which are manufactured in chemical works by processes similar to those employed for obtaining them in the laboratory on a smaller scale. Among the metals yet remaining for our examination, however, a considerable number are employed in the metallic state, and are extracted from their ores by processes of a particular kind, called metallurgical processes. In every case when they are to be used in the metallic state they must fulfil all the conditions enumerated (§ 276); which, however, many do not, as some are of rare occurrence, while the extracting of others presents too great practical difficulties, and still others have as yet found no technical application, being, therefore, of purely scientific interest. Nevertheless, on account of the great analogy existing between them in a chemical point of view, the study of those which find a technical application cannot be separated from that of those which are not so applied. The latter will, therefore, occupy our attention as well as the former, but to a much more limited extent. Mechanical Preparation of Ores. § 733. Under the general name of ores are comprised such combinations of metals, occurring in nature, as contain a sufficient proportion of metal to be worked with profit. The proportion varies with the marketable value of the metal, and according to the greater or less facility with which it can be obtained from its combination in the ore: iron ores, for instance, the commercial price of which metal is very low, must therefore be very rich if they are to be profitably worked.

Book Description
Excerpt from Elements of Chemistry, Vol. 1 of 2 The principal power productive of chemical phenomena, is that species of attraction, exerted between the parti. Cles of bodies, which brings them into intimate and per manent union. From its exertion between particles of a similar nature, arise -the forms under which bodies exist, and many of the physical qualities of which they are pos sessed. And from its exertion between particles of differ ent kinds, are derived the greater number of substances which compose our globe, - these consisting of certain ele ments retained by this power in a state of combination.

Book Description
Comprehensive Inorganic Chemistry II, Nine Volume Set reviews and examines topics of relevance to today’s inorganic chemists. Covering more interdisciplinary and high impact areas, Comprehensive Inorganic Chemistry II includes biological inorganic chemistry, solid state chemistry, materials chemistry, and nanoscience. The work is designed to follow on, with a different viewpoint and format, from our 1973 work, Comprehensive Inorganic Chemistry, edited by Bailar, Emeléus, Nyholm, and Trotman-Dickenson, which has received over 2,000 citations. The new work will also complement other recent Elsevier works in this area, Comprehensive Coordination Chemistry and Comprehensive Organometallic Chemistry, to form a trio of works covering the whole of modern inorganic chemistry. Chapters are designed to provide a valuable, long-standing scientific resource for both advanced students new to an area and researchers who need further background or answers to a particular problem on the elements, their compounds, or applications. Chapters are written by teams of leading experts, under the guidance of the Volume Editors and the Editors-in-Chief. The articles are written at a level that allows undergraduate students to understand the material, while providing active researchers with a ready reference resource for information in the field. The chapters will not provide basic data on the elements, which is available from many sources (and the original work), but instead concentrate on applications of the elements and their compounds. Provides a comprehensive review which serves to put many advances in perspective and allows the reader to make connections to related fields, such as: biological inorganic chemistry, materials chemistry, solid state chemistry and nanoscience Inorganic chemistry is rapidly developing, which brings about the need for a reference resource such as this that summarise recent developments and simultaneously provide background information Forms the new definitive source for researchers interested in elements and their applications; completely replacing the highly cited first edition, which published in 1973
