Basylous Elements

When united exclusively with basylous elements or radicals, sulphur is almost invariably a dyad and it is then the analogue of oxygen, as will be seen from the following formuher -... 

If to a solution of a salt whose acid is insoluble in the mlvent used, an acid be added capable of forming a soluble salt with the basylous element, such soluble salt is formed and e acid is deposited ... 

If to a salt whose acid is volatile at the existing temperature, an acid capable of forming with the basylous element a salt fixed at the same temperature be added, the fixed salt is formed and the volatile acid expelled. Thus, with the application of heat ... 

The following eight elements are negative or chlorous towards the remaining fifty-four elements, which are more or less positive or basylous —... 

It has already been mentioned that the elements may be divided into two great classes, the metals and the non-metals or metalloids. A second division into positive or basylous and negative or chlorous elements has also been explained. A thi and still more important classification is founded upon the atomicity of the elements. In the following classified Table all three methods are embodied, the metalloids being printed... 

COMPOUNDS OF SULPHUR WITH BASYLOUS OR POSITIVE ELEMENTS. 

Salts are substances formed by the substitution of basylous radicals or elements for a part or all of the replaceable hydrogen of an acid. They are always formed, therefore, when bases and... 

The simple ethers are the oxids of the alcoholic radicals. They bear the same relation to the alcohols that the oxids of the basyl-ous elements bear to their hydroxide ...
