This Introductory Course of Quantitative Analysis has been prepared to meet the needs of students who are just entering upon the subject, after a course of qualitative analysis. It is primarily intended to enable the student to work successfully and intelligently, without the necessity for a larger measure of personal assistance and supervision than can reasonably be given to each member of a large class. To this end the directions are given in Such detail that there is very little opportunity for the student to go astray; but the manual is not, the author believes, on this account less adapted for use with small classes, where the instructor, by greater personal influence, can stimulate independent thought on the part of the pupil. The method of presentation of the subject is that suggested by Prof. A. A. Noyes excellent manual of Qualitative A nalysis. For each analysis the procedure is given in considerable detail, and this is accompanied by explanatory notes, which are believed to be sufficiently expanded to enable the student to understand fully the underlying reason for each step prescribed. The use of the book should nevertheless be supplemented by classroom instruction, mainly of the character of recitations, and the student should be taught to consult the larger works, such as those of Fresenius, Mohr, and Sutton. The general directions of Part I are intended to emphasize those matters upon which the beginner in quantitative analysis must bestow special care, and to offer some helpful suggestions.
