37682If no man ever thought himself to be avaricious, or cruel, can it be expected that any person should ever discover that he is too self- conceited?
29734May not plants also restore air diminished by putrefaction by absorbing part of the phlogiston with which it is loaded?
29734May not this phlogistic matter be even the most essential part of the food and support of both vegetable and animal bodies?
29734May not water impregnated with phlogiston from calcined metals, or by any other method, be of some use in medicine?
29734May we not presume that the same remedy would be equally useful in the DYSENTERY?
29734Might it not however give additional efficacy to this remedy, if instead of simple water, the infusion of malt were to be employed?
30775In what ratio does the mercury in the barometer descend in proportion to its elevation?

46998But what Oil?
46998Can it be a substance of the same nature with Æther, a kind of solid Æther, an Æther in a concrete form?
46998Can this arise from hence, that Cream of Tartar, after dissolving a certain quantity of the reguline substance, separates from it afterwards?
46998For how are vegetable substances converted into Chyle and Milk in an animal body?
46998May it not be the Acid of the Spirit of Wine itself, resulting from the decomposition of that mixt in the distillation?
46998May it not be the Marine Acid, but altered by the union it has contracted with the Phlogiston?
46998Now whence can this difference arise?
46998Or is the Cream of Tartar itself decomposed by too long boiling?
46998Or may it not be, with respect to Phosphorus, what the volatile sulphureous spirit is, with respect to Sulphur?
46998What Acid?
46998What is it that is kindled in this case?
46998What must be the consequence, therefore, of mixing these two saline matters together?
46998What then is this singular body?
46998Why doth this Oil take fire?
46998Why then, in this experiment of Mr. Hellot''s, do we obtain only a Spirit of Wine replete with Æther, while none of the other productions appear?
46998and how are they united?
46998or would it produce the same, if it were only a mere Absorbent Earth?

38246What''s in a name?
38246*****_ Sub._ And what''s your mercury?
38246But how was this assumption to be proved or disproved?
38246But if this be so, why, he asked, does not water mechanically dissolve the same bulk of every kind of gas?
38246But what, one may ask, is an alkali, of which mention is so often made by Boyle?
38246But why does rapid burning only take place in air?
38246But why is it that certain elementary atoms exhibit affinity for certain others?
38246He seemed, therefore, to have a large experimental basis for his answer to the question,"What happens when a substance burns?"
38246How was this number obtained?
38246Let us shortly review Priestley''s answer to the question,"What happens when a substance burns in air?"
38246Might he not triumphantly assert that he had transmuted lead into silver?
38246Now, could you be at my disposal, say from six in the morning till midnight?''"
38246Or, again, what could any reasonable man make of this?
38246Or, when two compounds are known containing the same pair of elements, why must one be binary and the other ternary?
38246The old difficulty still stares us in the face-- how can we find the number of elementary atoms in the molecule of a given compound?
38246What could this experiment teach save that water was changed into earth and air?
38246What is this but common air completely deprived of phlogiston?
38246What then becomes of this phlogiston?
38246What then, he asks, is this"principle"which can so escape, and be so restored by the action of various substances?
38246Why may it not be ternary or quaternary?
38246Why must the atom of water be built up of one atom of hydrogen combined with one atom of oxygen?
38246Will you act as my cicerone?
38246_ Sub._ And when comes vivification?
38246_ Sub._ How know you him?
38246_ Sub._ What''s cohobation?
38246_ Why_ are acids acid, and_ why_ are alkalis alkaline?
38246and has he not also been taught that every honest effort made to extend the boundaries of natural knowledge must advance that knowledge a little way?
38246and, What can this compound do; how does it react towards other bodies?
14474What happens?
14474Am I right in supposing that anybody here has played at snapdragon?
14474And going out, why?
14474And how are these candles made?
14474And what do you think the bulk of that water is when it assumes the vaporous condition?
14474And where does all this go?
14474And you might say,"It is nothing; it is not worth chemical attention; what does it do in the air?"
14474And, now that I have immersed it in spirit and applied a light to it, in what way does it differ from an ordinary candle?
14474But can it be steam?
14474But how does the flame get hold of the fuel?
14474But if I shut it off, what becomes of the lamp?
14474But is there nothing else there than nitrogen?
14474But then you have a right to ask me,"How is it that the air and the oxygen do not equally well burn the candle?"
14474But then, beyond that, how is it that the candle does not burn in air as well as in oxygen?
14474But what can this be which we find as the other constituent in water, and which must therefore be that substance which made the hydrogen burn?
14474But what is that black substance?
14474But what will you say when I tell you that my breath will put out that candle?
14474But why does it not burn in that way now, when it is lying in a mass?
14474But, now, what will you think of this fact?
14474By what?
14474Can we get it from the air?
14474Could you do that?
14474Did you see that brilliant light?
14474Do I get carbonic acid?
14474Do you not see that it is_ not_ in the inside?
14474Do you remember this kind of experiment?
14474Do you see that the water has become quite milky?
14474Do you see what happens?
14474Does not that shew you what a large bulk of matter is being evolved?
14474Have you ever seen it?
14474Here it is seeming to boil up famously; but does it boil?
14474How burned?
14474How comes it out of the candle?
14474How is it that this solid gets there, it not being a fluid?
14474How shall we get at this?
14474If I shut the air off, look how it smokes; and why?
14474If the carbon had been like the lead which I shewed you, or the iron which, in burning, produces a solid substance, what would happen?
14474Is it anything else?
14474Is it hydrogen?
14474Is it not beautiful to think that such a process is going on, and that such a dirty thing as charcoal can become so incandescent?
14474Is not that a very pretty experiment?
14474It evidently comes, as to part of it, from the candle; but is it within the candle beforehand?
14474Now, I have no doubt you will ask, how is it that the oil, which will not burn of itself, gets up to the top of the cotton, where it will burn?
14474Now, what is the circumstance which makes the lead and carbon differ in this respect?
14474Now, why is this?
14474Now, why is this?
14474Oxygen, as you will immediately imagine, exists in the atmosphere; for how should the candle burn to produce water without it?
14474Suppose I take this candle, and hold a piece of paper close upon the flame, where is the heat of that flame?
14474Suppose, in place of having nitrogen, or nitrogen and oxygen, we had pure oxygen as our atmosphere; what would become of us?
14474Then, what becomes of it?
14474There is our candle burning in the air: how will it burn in oxygen?
14474There it is standing over the water, and it can not therefore be steam, but must be a permanent gas of some sort What is it?
14474This is a very combustible substance; and if it be so combustible in air, what might you expect it would be in oxygen?
14474This is the first part of our experiment; and now, what follows?
14474We find one of these is hydrogen: what must that other be which was in the water before the experiment, and which we now have by itself?
14474What diamond can shine like flame?
14474What do you think of the contents of that box above there, which I have had made for the purpose?
14474What is all that smoke?
14474What is its nature?
14474What is set free when I put it in the water, as I am about to do again?
14474What shall we call it, A, B, or C?
14474What, then, are the comparative weights of these substances?
14474What, then, is happening?
14474When you have put the spirit into the dish, you have the cup and the fuel; and are not the raisins acting like the wicks?
14474Where, then, is this water which we get from a candle?
14474Why does a piece of potassium decompose water?
14474Why does it hold?
14474Why does it occur?"
14474Why is my hand fastened to this place, and why am I able to pull this pump about?
14474Why is that?
14474Why is this?
14474Why?
14474You have asked me several times, and I am very glad you have,"How do you weigh gases?"
14474You have here a solid substance with no vessel to contain it; and how is it that this solid substance can get up to the place where the flame is?
14474You would be puzzled for a good while if I asked you what the state of this vessel is, what is inside it, and why it is there?
14474[ A light was then applied, when the hydrogen burnt] What is there now in the other jar?
14474how is it that I can hardly get my hand away?
14474or, when it is made a fluid, then how is it that it keeps together?
