Advanced Chemistry In Creation PDF Download

Excerpt from The Chemistry of Creation: Being a Sketch of the Chief Chemical and Physical Phenomena The description and explanation of the Chemical Phenomena of our Earth would require not one volume only, but many volumes. Notwithstanding the exercise of much labour and thought during the progress of this volume through the press, in the endeavour to bring it below its present limits, the importance and variety of the subjects on which it treats have precluded the possibility of curtailment. When the students of nature investigate the connexions and natural dependencies of those kingdoms which together constitute the system of creation, and even when they regard these connexions in one aspect and direction only, as in the present case, they find the subject to be exhaustless. In numerous instances, too, we should have to confess our ignorance of the actual economy of nature, and to hazard many conjectures; for the Chemistry of some of the very commonest natural processes is as yet but imperfectly understood. We have still much to learn as to the formation and fall of rain, the nutrition of plants and animals, the production of minerals, and many other important matters.
