Depositing Liquids.--For the benefit of the practical depositor--to whom a general knowledge of all solutions from which ordinary metals may be deposited, with their respective advantages and disadvantages, is of considerable importance--we will give a description of those solutions in regular order, making such remarks in our progress as will be likely to assist him in the selection of those most suitable for his particular purposes. 97. Antimony Solutions.--The most common salts of antimony are the sulphide, terchloride, and potassio-tartrate. The hydrochlorate of terchloride of antimony, i.e., the ordinary chloride of antimony, as prepared for pharmaceutical purposes, is formed by chemical means thus: --Take one pound of black sulphide of antimony, add to it four pints of hydrochloric acid, gently heat the mixture with constant stirring, until the gas evolved decreases, then boil it slowly down to two pints, keeping it partly covered all the time; cool it, filter it through calico, and keep it in a stoppered bottle. It is now a yellowish red liquid, of specific gravity l-47, but becomes nearly colourless by depositing antimony from it by the battery process. The commercial article contains much dissolved iron. A similar solution may be made by the battery method; this consists in passing a current from several pairs of batteries through strong hydrochloric acid by a large anode of antimony, until a good deposit is obtained; this liquid is nearly free from iron. The chloride of antimony is an excellent conductor of electricity, it dissolves the anode freely, yields plenty of bright re..
