Observations upon Camphoric Acid, and its Combinations with Salifiable Bases[49].
Observations upon Camphoric Acid, and its Combinations with Salifiable Bases, 276 SECT.
By treating turpentine with an equal bulk of warm water, and shaking it in a large bottle with air, camphoric acid and peroxide of hydrogen are formed.
By distillation, camphoric acid yields a colourless, crystalline, neutral substance, which has been improperly called anhydrouscamphoric acid.
The crystals are purified by washing with cold distilled water, solution in boiling water, and evaporating the solution until a pellicle forms; crystals of pure camphoric acid are formed as the liquid cools.
It is known to chemists that turpentine when oxidised in a current of air in presence of water, yields peroxide of hydrogen, camphoric acid, acetic acid, camphor, and certain other less defined substances.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "camphoric" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
