Essential reference for chemical tables and practical data
This nineteenth-century work collects a wide range of prepared tables for chemical analysis, measurements, and physical properties. It explains the aim to render figures accurate and useful, with many new tables added to extend standard references. Suitable for students and professionals, it offers a compact source of data drawn from original sources and cross‑checked for reliability.
The book emphasizes practical use: it aligns gases and densities with a single reference unit, offers wave-length data for spectroscopy, and provides methods to interpolate observed values. It also includes instructions and tables that support indirect estimation, solution concentrations, and the conversion of common measurements, all designed to support laboratory work and analysis planning.
- Ready reference for elemental equivalents, weights, and log values
- Tables for densities, specific heats, and thermodynamic data
- Guides for diluting solutions and calculating proportions
- Wave lengths, refractive indices, and related physical constants
Ideal for readers who need fast access to dependable data in everyday chemistry, lab work, or teaching contexts. The edition aims to support precise calculations and practical experimentation without excessive theory.
