The word "strontia" in example sentences

To justify its name, should be a chromate of strontia, a compound very slightly soluble in water, and not more stable than the zinc chromate. ❋ George Field (N/A)

It states that if 10 per cent. of burnt magnesia, or even baryta, or strontia, is mixed (cold) with ordinary linseed-oil paint, and then enough mineral oil to envelop the alkaline earth, the free acid of the paint will be neutralized, while the iron will be protected by the permanent alkaline action of the paint. ❋ Various (N/A)

Weigh five ounces of dry nitrate of strontia, one ounce and a half of finely-powdered sulphur, five drams of chlorate of potash, and four drams of sulphuret of antimony. ❋ James H. Head (N/A)

Among them may be mentioned a red purpurate of lead, a purple-red and a rose-coloured purpurate of mercury, a purple-red purpurate of silver, a dark red-brown purpurate of strontia, a crystalline red purpurate of cobalt, a scarlet purpurate of platinum, a yellow purpurate of zinc, and a green purpurate of baryta. ❋ George Field (N/A)

It is advantageous to add to the wash water powdered carbonate of baryta, strontia, magnesia, or preferably lime, and subsequently to rinse in pure water. ❋ Various (N/A)

The pigment, however, now sold as strontian yellow is usually formed by admixture, and contains no strontia whatever. ❋ George Field (N/A)

The paper is then saturated with chlorate of strontia, or chlorate of baryta, or nitrate of copper, by immersion in a warm solution of these salts (See Chemical News, vol. i., p. 36.) [back] ❋ Unknown (1909)

Here is some which has been soaked in nitrate of strontia: you will see the beautiful red color of its flame; and here is another which I think contains baryta, which gives that fine green light; and I have here some more which has been soaked in nitrate of copper: it does not burn quite so brightly, but still very beautifully. ❋ Unknown (1909)

This contains 56.4 per cent. of strontia (SrO); or 47.7 per cent. of strontium. ❋ Cornelius Beringer (1886)

In the absence of baryta or lime it is filtered off, and weighed as strontium carbonate, which contains 70.17 per cent. of strontia. ❋ Cornelius Beringer (1886)

The strontia is precipitated from the filtrate by boiling for some time with a strong solution of ammonic sulphate and a little ammonia. ❋ Cornelius Beringer (1886)

The determination of strontia in pure solutions is best made by adding sulphuric acid in excess and alcohol in volume equal to that of the solution. ❋ Cornelius Beringer (1886)

The residue will contain the strontia as carbonate, which is readily soluble in dilute hydrochloric or nitric acid. ❋ Cornelius Beringer (1886)

Lead salts must be absent in the titration, and so must strontia and lime. ❋ Cornelius Beringer (1886)

The gravimetric determination of baryta, when lime and strontia are absent, is as follows: -- The solution, if it contains much free acid, is nearly neutralised with ammonia, and then diluted to 100 or 200 c.c. It is heated to boiling, and dilute sulphuric acid is added till no further precipitation takes place. ❋ Cornelius Beringer (1886)

Fifty parts of ammonic sulphate are required for each part of strontia or lime present. ❋ Cornelius Beringer (1886)

Again, burn salt in a white flame, and it turns to yellow; mix alcohol and boracic acid, ignite them, and a beautiful green flame results; alcohol and nitrate of strontia give red flame; alcohol and nitrate of barytes give yellow flame. ❋ Henry White Warren (1871)

In the third case (40) are some remarkable varieties of silicates, which contain borates from Norway and other countries; and in the fourth case (41) are the first in order, of the carbonates, including carbonates of soda, the beautiful crystals of carbonate of baryta, carbonate of strontia and aragonites, from Aragon, Hungary, ❋ W. Blanchard Jerrold (1855)

Cyanine appears to behave as an acid, at least it forms with lime, baryta, strontia, oxide of lead, &c., green compounds insoluble in water. ❋ George William Septimus Piesse (1851)

The converse of this is also true: nitrate of strontia becomes quite dissimilar to its common state if a certain proportion of water is taken into its composition. ❋ Justus Freiherr Von Liebig (1838)
