CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL GROUP 103 tubes and a large retort for making pure hydrofluoric acid, Kahlbaums mercurial air pumps, Schmidt and Haensch saccharimeters of three different styles, complete sets of Hofmann's and Lepsius's apparatus for lecture demonstrations, Orsat's and Hempel's apparatus for gas analysis, microscopes, spectroscopes, apparatus for electrolytic analysis, etc.; for work in physical chemistry there are thermostats, Abbe's and Pulfrich's refractometers, Kriiss's universal spectral apparatus with all attachments, two calorimetric bombs, one of which is lined with platinum, Beckmann's apparatus, Dumas', Hofmann's, and Meyer's vapor density apparatus, apparatus for determination of electrical conductivities. The laboratory is provided with its own dynamo, a large storage battery, and an excellent projection lantern. A very important feature of the equipment consists of the chemical library, which, in addition to all the modern, standard chemical texts, dictionaries, and encyclopedias, includes complete sets of nearly all the more important chemical journals, especially the German and the English. The current numbers of many others are regularly received. EQUIPMENT FOR PHYSICS For the equipment in physics see p. 94. CHEMICAL COURSES CLASSIFICATION OF SUBJECTS Prescribed 1.
