Most abundant of theelements, comprising one-fifth of the air, eighth-ninths of water,one-half of the crust of the earth, and three-fourths of allorganized bodies. Preparation.—Made most easily by heating potassium chlorate Fig. (Fig. 8), and decomposing it into potassium chloride and oxygen,thus : KC103 = KC1 + Physical Properties.—A colorless, odorless and tasteless gas, alittle heavier ( times) than air. Under a pressure of and at a temperature of —136 C, it condenses into 17 Grind in a mortar some potassium chlorate with half as much manganesedioxide, a black powder that facilitates the evolution of the oxygen. Heat this10 a side-neck test-tube as in Fig. 8, or in an open test-tube. Recognize theoxygen by the energetic combustion when a match, or even the glowring endof the charred stick is introduced. Note.—Experiments 18, 19 and 20 are to be performed by the instructor. 22 ESSENTIALS OF CHEMISTRY. Fig. 9.
