Silver (Ag, [Kr]4 /I05.s 1), name from Anglo-Saxon seolfor or siolfur (silver), symbol from the Latin argentum (from Greek dp os, shiny). Known since ancient times.

Chlorinity When a sample of sea water is titrated with silver nitrate, bromides and iodides, as well as chlorides are precipitated. In calculating the chlorinity (Cl), the entire halogen content is taken as chloride, and chlorinity is defined as the weight in grams of silver required for precipitation of total halogen content per kilogram of sea water, multiplied by 0-328 533. (Chlorinity is always expressed as parts per thousand, using the symbol %o.)... 

Just like chemists today, ancient Egyptians also used symbols as well as words to represent common elements and compounds. Electrum is an alloy of silver and gold.

The first and third examples illustrate a nuance of the naming rules. Iron and silver in anionic complexes are named by their Latin roots,/err- and argent-, from which their symbols (Fe and Ag) are derived. Metals taking their Latin names in anionic coordination complexes are listed in Table 20-4. 

The name copper and the symbol Cu are derived from the Latin cuprum, after the island of Cyprus, where the Romans first obtained copper metal. The symbols Ag and Au for silver and gold come from the Latin names for these elements argentum... 

Mercury (chemical symbol Hg, from the Latin name of the metal, hydrar-gyrium, liquid silver), previously also known as quicksilver is, at ordinary temperatures, a silvery white liquid metal that boils at 360°C. The metal is occasionally found in nature in the native state. Most mercury has been derived, however, from the red mineral cinnabar (composed of mercuric sulfide) that was also used in the past as a red pigment known as vermilion (see Textbox 41). The Greek philosopher Aristotle, writing in the fourth... 

Copper was called cuprum in Latin, hence its symbol, Cu. It is used in the minting of one cent pieces and for pans, but an even more important use is in the wires and switches that carry electricity. Copper is the second-best conductor of electricity (silver is first). It is alloyed with other metals to make bronze and brass. The Cu+2 ion is necessary in the human body, in very small, or trace, amounts, as a catalyst in making blood. At ordinary temperatures, copper is the best conductor of heat. 

The atomic number 47 is that of the element silver. Thus the symbol is ° Ag. 

Silver has the symbol Ag because its Latin name is argentium, itself derived from the Greek for money, argu-rion. The Spanish colonized parts of South America in the 16th century. They named it Argentina (dog-Latin for silver land ) when they discovered its vast reserves of silver. 

It will take some practice to build this hall imaginatively and establish it firmly. Figure 2 may be useful for memorizing the various details (see above). You will know you have succeeded when the symbols spontaneously emit light and radiance within the meditation. This indicates that the details are now fixed, that they have been accepted by your personal subconscious. For example, you may find yourself gazing with pleasure at the way the twelve silver lines on the table s surface gleam in... 

Perform the preliminary exercises and then project the Table Round. Take your place at your siege. Observe that you are clothed in a hooded robe of deep blue-violet, the indigo color of Akasha. The hood is a symbol of impersonality, the necessary attitude of mind for this work. There are silver sandals, the magical tool of Yesod, upon your feet, for you are walking the shining Paths of the Tree. This robe and these sandals should be your usual inner attire when working within the Tower. 

The Regent invariably appears in male guise, robed in white, and wearing a silver circlet upon his head engraved with the astrological symbol of Mercury jl. 

You are brought down as you were lifted up. Assisted by the Regent, Menes sanctifies you with the oil of consecration, visible symbol of the Mezla. Then, robed again in white and shod in silver, they escort you back into the Great Hall and the gathered assembly. 

Mercury (Hg, [Xe + 4/14]5 /l06.v2), named after the planet Mercury (dedicated to the Roman God Mercurius), the symbol came from the Latin name hydrargyrum (liquid silver). Known since ancient times. 

Mercury - the atomic number is 80 and the chemical symbol is Hg. The name derives from the Roman god Mercury , the nimble messenger of the gods, since the ancients used that name for the element, which was known from prehistoric times. The chemical symbol, Hg, derives from the Greek hydragyrium for liquid silver or quick silver.
