What reading level is The New Chemistry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The gas we call carbonic dioxide, which is the only product of the burning of pure coal, weighs more than the coal, and, since this excess of weight is exactly equal to tLit of the oxygen consumed in the burning, we conclude that, in this process, the coal has combined with oxygen, and that the carbonic dioxide is a compound of these two substances.
Thus arise our scientific conceptions of combina- tion and decomposition, of synthesis and analysis.
When we say that sugar is composed of charcoal... and water, we mean merely that these two substances may be evolved from sugar ; and the evidence that they are the only constituents of sugar is that the sum of the weights of the two products equals the weight of the sugar. When we say that water is composed of oxy- gen and hydrogen, we merely mean that these two substances may be educed from water, and that, as be- fore, the weight of the two products exactly equals the weight of the water. When we say that carbonic di- oxide is composed of charcoal and oxygen, our asser- tion is based on the fact that, in the process of burning, the oxygen gas appears to absorb charcoal, and that the resulting gas weighs more than the oxygen by the WEIGHT THE MEASURE OF MATERIAL.
