Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pharmaceutical and Chemical Problems and Exercises, With Explanatory d104: Including Pharmaceutical and Chemical Arithmetic, Weights and Measures, Specific Density and Specific Volume, and Chemical Notation and Nomenclature, Chemical Equations, Problems in Oxidation and Reduction, and St chiometry; Together With the Elementary T Three editions of this little book are exhausted. A fourth edition is hereby offered fully revised and containing much new matter. The lack of a suitable text book on the subject with sufficient exercises in pharmaceutical and chemical arithmetic, chemical notation and nomenclature, chemical equations and stoechiometric problems has prompted me to this effort to supply the want. Thirty-five years' experience as a teacher has convinced me that it is impossible to give students the required amount and variety of practical work of this nature without the aid of a text book, since the time and labor necessary to prepare needed examples from lesson to lesson are far greater than the teacher can bestow. Students of pharmacy have had the arithmetic taught in the secondary schools before taking up their special technical courses, but so many of them are deficient in it that a review with further practice is often indispensable. The problems and exercises of Parts I to VI may be undertaken without previous instruction in pharmacy or chemistry. The chemical problems and exercises may be employed either concurrently with, or after, the first years course in chemistry. Notation and equation writing are given a large share of attention. The eighty pages devoted to theoretical chemistry, the law of periodicity, and the classification of inorganic compounds, have been written for the express purpose of preparing the student to intelligently grasp the system of chemical notation and the method of writing equations. The manner of treatment of these subjects is in some respects new. Those who can not understand and quickly solve such problems as are presented in this book can not be competent practical pharmacists or chemists.
