...exposed to various flames, such as sulphur, bisulphide of carbon, alcohol, or coal-gas, produce no change upon the position of the bright lines in the spectrum, which are characteristic of each metal. I need not, before such an audience, enlarge on the importance which these discoveries bear on chemistry... | |
