Q

Analytical Chemistry, or the art of recognizing different substances and determining their constituents, takes a
prominent position among applications of science, since the questions which it enables us to answer arise wherever chemical processes are employed for scientific or technical purposes. Its supreme importance has caused it to be assiduously cultivated from a very early period in the history of chemistry, and its records comprise a large part of the quantitative work which is spread over the whole domain of science.”
