To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The mouth of the beaker is now loosely covered * with a piece of filter-paper, which prevents flames 90 SURFACE COMBUSTION from rising, and platinum glows brightly as the alcohol burns upon its surface (see Fig. 23).
\JUUUUUUUU CH 3 OH FIG. 23.
This experiment is merely a modification of a well-known method of preparing formaldehyde, which consists in passing a mixture of air and methyl alcohol vapour over a heated platinum wire. 2 The reaction is usually represented by the equation CH 3 OH = H
...CHO + H 2 .
Formaldehyde This is followed by a certain amount of further dehydrogenation 3 HCHO = and subsequent oxidation, which may be more or less complete according to circumstances. Thus : = H 2 O + CO 2 .
The reaction, when once started, is self-supporting and lamps have been constructed for this purpose. 4 A pretty variation of this experiment for popular demonstration, consists in suspending by means of SURFACE CATALYSIS 91 a copper wire a star-shaped piece of platinum-foil from a glass support in a tumbler or other suitable glass vessel, containing some perfumed alcohol.
