Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exercises in Elementary Quantitative Chemical Analysis: For Students of Agriculture Owing to the growing demand for quantitative analytical chemistry by those engaged in the study of agriculture, it seemed to the authors that the presentation of the fundamental methods of agricultural analysis as carried out in the laboratories of the American Experiment Stations would be desirable. While this book is designed primarily as an elementary quantitative guide for the use of agricultural students, it may also be used for the work in general elementary quantitative analysis. This text-book is the outgrowth of several years' experience in teaching quantitative analysis to students specializing in Agriculture, Chemistry, Medicine, and Household Science. No attempt has been made to present a complete treatise on quantitative analysis; but a few typical exercises have been chosen to illustrate the fundamental principles and the most important methods of manipulation. To further the interest in this work, the student should be encouraged to do considerable outside reading, and there should be available for his use a number of the best books of reference. In the Appendix will be found a list of some of the most important works having a bearing on this subject, while throughout the text reference is made to the original literature. The gravimetric exercises and the work outlined under Acidimetry and Alkalimetry, together with the analysis of Milk or Feeding Material and Fertilizer, comprise the work usually accomplished by the agricultural students in one semester. Those students who desire more quantitative analysis complete the remainder of the exercises in another semester. Owing to the importance of the calculation of analytical data, this subject has been treated in considerable detail in Part V (Stoichiometry). The matter presented is arranged to be studied in conjunction with the regular laboratory exercises. In addition to the methods of solving problems, a large number of problems is given for practice.
