The elements of medical chemistry : embracing only those branches of chemical science which are calculated to illustrate or explain the different objects of medicine, and to furnish a chemical grammar to the author's Pharmacologia . hich has been called t FAR1S;S MLDICAL CHEMISTRY. - 371 Horn-silver, or Luna Cornea. This substance has the pro-perty of absorbing a considerable quantity of ammoniacal gas(325, note) which is again driven off by the apppliation ofheat. The aolution of nitrate of silver is also decomposedby sulphuric acid and its salts, which produce a nearly insolubleSulphate, of Silver, requiring for its solution 90 parts of waterat 60°. By adding carbonate of potass to the same solution,we obtain an insoluble Carbonate of Silver. Salts of Platinum. 871. These have been but little examined. 872. Muriate of Platinum. Nitro-muriatic acid is thereadiest solvent of this metal; and we obtain a solution whichis of use to the Chemist as a test for the presence of potass,with which it produces a yellow precipitate soluble in water. 873. Sulphate of Platinum is formed by acidifying thesulphuret by means of nitric acid. It is soluble in water, andaccording to Mr. E. Davy is a very delicate test for • PART III. ORGANIC CHEMISTRY.
