Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex chemical processes involved in the extraction and manipulation of oxygen from the Earth's atmosphere. The author, a respected chemist of the era, provides a detailed account of his groundbreaking experiments using baryta, a compound derived from barium, to isolate and collect oxygen gas. Through meticulous observation and experimentation, the author unveils the conditions under which baryta can absorb and release oxygen, ultimately leading to the development of a method for separating oxygen from nitrogen in the air. This discovery not only advanced the understanding of gas chemistry but also laid the groundwork for future advancements in fields such as metallurgy and combustion, shaping our ability to harness and utilize oxygen's properties.
