Abstract

"In this Thesis my object has been to ascertain the silver losses in cupellation with different kinds of cupel material, thereby determining the effeciency [sic] of the materials in the four kinds of cupels used. When I began the work I though the losses would be about equal in all cupels, but was surprised to find such a great difference. I refer the reader to the curves to see what really happened" – page i.
