A rodof zinc throws down metallic antimony, as ablack powder, from all its solutions not con-taining free nitric acid. If the experiment bemade with a few drops of a solution of anti-mony containing a little free hydrochloric acid,and a small platinum dish or capsule be em-ployed, the part covered by the liquid is soonstained brown or blackish, and the stain isirremovable by cold hydrochloric acid, but maybe easily removed by warm nitric acid:—5.
