The change from a binary compound, that is, one containing two elements, to a ternary compound in which these two elements are associated with a third, sometimes affords a very good test for the theory.
He does not give reasons for his assertion that "when only one combination of two bodies can be obtained, it must be presumed to be a binary one.
Or, when two compounds are known containing the same pair of elements, why must one be binary and the other ternary?
Only one compound of hydrogen and oxygen was then known; hence it was presumed to be a binary compound, i.

This was a subroutines program within a program that you could sometimes integrate into many different programs--to translate binary numbers that the computer gave you into regular decimal numbers.
From the binary stars came a whisper across the vast abyss of space.
But till these binary stars were discovered we had no means of guessing that this law had any force beyond our own solar system.
There is no doubt that each pair is a binary star, that is, the two stars move round each other very slowly, and possibly both pairs may also revolve round a common centre.
The list of binary stars, however, increases every year as they are carefully examined, and probably about one star in three over the whole sky is made up of more than one sun.
The active and passive properties existed in binary combinations, one of which is characteristic, i.
In a small telescope the star Castor will be found double, the components, one of which is brighter than the other, forming a binary system.
The method of detecting binary stars by means of the spectroscope is an application of Doppler's principle.
It is a binary system, the component bodies revolving around their common centre of gravity in a period of about two hundred years.
Sirius is also a binary system; but it is what is called a "visual" one, for its component stars may be seen separately in very large telescopes.
It is only in the case of binary systems that we can discover the masses of stars at all.
A pairing of stars in this way, though often casually alluded to as a double star, is properly termed a "binary," or binary system.
The researches into binary systems--both those which can be seen with the eye and those which can be observed by means of the spectroscope, ought to impress upon us very forcibly the wide sway of the law of gravitation.
The spectroscope shows that the brighter of these stars is again a binary system of two huge suns, the components revolving around each other in a period of about twenty days.
Among the numerousbinary stars the orbits of some fifty have been satisfactorily determined.
By means of the spectroscope Capella is shown to be really composed of two stars (one about twice as bright as the other) situated very close together and forming a binary system.
This binary nomenclature immediately proved of such great practical assistance that it was universally accepted, and is still always followed in zoological and botanical classification.
As the best practical aid in that attempt he introduced the well-known double or binary nomenclature; to each kind of animals and plants he gave a particular specific name, and added to it the wider-reaching name of the genus.

They show, making allowance for the greater number of columns (three and a third times as many) required by the binary plan, a saving of nearly half; but they also illustrate the necessity of practice.
These statistics prove the existence of a class of persons who can do faster and more reliable work by the binary reckoning.
In the binary figures she made three additions in between seven and eight minutes, with but one place wrong in the three.
With four of the observers the binarynotation required nearly double the time.
A bold double-billeted moulding is continued below the clerestory, whose windows adapt themselves to the binary arrangement of the bays.
His greatest work was his study of binarystars and the demonstration of his belief that the law of gravitation is universal in its application.
Fragment V") The poems also have a discernible rhythmical pattern; the tendency of the lines to form pairs is obvious enough when there is semantic or grammatical parallelism, but there is a general binary pattern throughout.
I have rearranged the following lines and in the other passages relating to the structure of the poems in order to call attention to the binary quality of Macpherson's verse: Repetition Who can reach the source of thy race, O Connal?
Defn: A binary compound of nitrogen with a more metallic element or radical; as, boric nitride.
Defn: A binary compound of sulphion, or one so regarded; thus, sulphuric acid, Hsulphionide.
Defn: A binary compound of sulphur, or one so regarded; -- formerly called sulphuret.
Defn: Any compound of ethyl of a binary type; as, potassium ethide.
The machine mulled the information over, tossed electrons back and forth, chewed and digested a ream of binary digits, and handed forth a strip of paper printed with an entire set of coordinates in decimal angles.
It blinded him; luckily the beautiful binary of Alpha Centauri was behind the little planet and he was saved the hurt of looking at that brilliance.
It will be remembered that, after the fixed alkalies had been found to contain oxygen, Davy was very naturally led to enquire whether ammonia might not also contain the same element, or be an oxide with a binary base.
Out of the binary combination the quiescent bodies originate, for they are only a part of the planet--Minerals, Earths.
The earth is the æther represented as centre in the Material, or it is the identification of all polar binary division in the Terrestrial, independently of oxydation; therefore its parts are motionless, be they dust or compact masses.
There is no substance called light, but the æther is illuminant through its binary division.
