On poisons in relation to medical jurisprudence and medicine . Crystals of acetate of lead, magnified Crystals of acetate of lead magnified 30 diameters. 80 diameters. Acetate of Lead in Solution.—If acetate of lead is presented in a stateof solution, or if the solid salt is dissolved in water for the purpose ofmaking a further examination, we should note the following points :1. A small quantity, slowly evaporated on a glass-slide, will give whiteand opaque prismatic crystals (Figs. 35 and 36), which are turnedyellow by iodide of potassium, and black by sulphide of solution is said to be neutral. The common acetate has both anacid and an alkaline reaction, i. e., it reddens litmus-paper and rendersturmeric brown, a circumstance which might create some embarrassmentin an analysis. 2. Diluted sulphuric acid produces a white precipitate,soluble in hydrochloric acid and in a large excess of caustic It is precipitated of a bright-yellow color by the iodide of potassium ;the yellow iodide of lead is soluble in caustic potash a
