Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Methods of Inorganic Chemistry In the training of chemists great attention is always paid, in organic chemistry, to preparative work, but for some reason or other this class of work has been very largely neglected in the teaching of inorganic chemistry. Whether this is due to a mistaken idea that the inorganic compounds are very easy of preparation, or to the difficulty of systematising inorganic chemistry, it is hard to say, but at any rate the fact remains that if a student is called upon to prepare an inorganic compound, he is very often unable to do so. It will generally be found that students are much more interested in organic than in inorganic chemistry, because they have prepared the organic compounds, and they therefore have a better understanding of their nature and properties. My own experience is, and I am sure it is shared by others, that when students have done inorganic preparatory work they become less mechanical and take a more intense interest in the work than when inorganic chemistry is simply represented by a laboratory course of analysis and the cramming up of a text-book of combined theory and manufacturing processes.
