Página 8 - Specific weight, or specific gravity, is the number which expresses the ratio which the weight of a cubic inch of the body bears to the weight of a cubic inch of distilled water at a temperature of 15-5° C.
Página 182 - Brass consists of about 30 parts ofzinc'and 70 of copper. Copper is sometimes externally converted into brass by exposure, when at a red heat, to the vapour of zinc. The gold wire of Lyons is manufactured from copper bars prepared in this manner. Gun metal consists of 90 parts of copper and 10 of tin. Bell metal contains a larger proportion of tin. Bronze consists of 91 parts of copper, 2 of tin, 6 of zinc, and I of lead.

In this state it forms large blue crystals, which have a nauseous metallic taste, and a density of 2.27. It is soluble in between two and three times its weight of water at the ordinary temperature, and in less than its own weight of boiling water: the solution has a blue color, and a distinctly acid reaction. At a temperature of about 204° C. (400° F.) the salt becomes anhydrous and crumbles...
