This course consists of three lessons a week throughout the session,
after each of which the students spend three or four hours in
practical experiments in the Laboratory. A course in Chemical
Manipulation is first given, then Blowpipe Analysis, Recognition of
Ores, Fire Assaying of Ores of Lead, Gold, and Silver, and a systematic
course in Inorganic Qualitative Analysis, followed by practice
in the analysis of salts, alloys, and ores, and the examination of potable
water, coal, limestone, clay, and so on, including some simpler
quantitative determinations. Weekly written exercises are required.
