Abstract
THIS book contains an account of the source, preparation, application and tests for some scores of indicators and test papers which have been proposed for use chiefly in determining the end-point in volumetric chemical analyses. The book opens with a general discussion of the action, use, and theory of indicators, and ends with four useful tables and a good index. The first table is Trommsdorff's showing the sensitiveness of indicators to acids and alkalis,the second is R. T.Thomson's (hitherto the chief English guide), the third is Dieterich's table showing the sensitiveness of various test-papers, and the fourth is a tabular summary of the principal indicators by the author.
