Synopsis
A General System Of Chemical Knowledge: And Its Application To The Phenomena Of Nature And Art. In Eleven Vols by Comte Antoine-François De Fourcroy. The volume presented here is a translation of Fourcroy’s expansive treatise and forms part of a larger eleven-volume project. It surveys foundational chemical principles in a systematic, pedagogical manner, beginning with general considerations on combustion and the formation of oxides and acids, including distinctions between oxides and acids and the role of water as the oxide of hydrogen. It proceeds to an in-depth treatment of Acids in General, detailing the carbonic, phosphoric, phosphoreous, sulfuric, sulfurous, nitric, nitrous, and metallic acids, with emphasis on radical theory and acidification. The text then moves to Earthy and Alkaline Salifiable Bases (lime, magnesia, barytes, potash, soda, strontian, ammonia), examining their properties, interactions, and industrial applications. A substantial portion is devoted to lithology, the analysis of stones, and the methods of chemical analysis, culminating in tables of stone analyses. The work presents a rigorous, theory-driven corpus of chemistry intended to advance both natural philosophy and practical arts.
