"FRANKLAND, E. (EDWARD). - INTRODUCING ""VALENCY"" IN CHEMISTRY.
Reference : 42941
(1852)
On a New Series of Organic Bodies containing Metals. Received May 10,- Read June 17,1852.
London, Richard Taylor and William Francis, 1852 4to. No wrappers as extracted from ""Philosophical Transactions"" 1852 - Part II. With titlepage to Part II., pp. 417-444, textillustr. Fine and clean.
First appearance of an extremely importent paper in the histroy of chemistry as Frankland here introduced the concept of 'VALENCY' - he called it 'atomicity' - to explain the capacity of atoms to combine with other atoms. ""This led not only to the Kekulé structures, but also to the periodic table of Mendeléev, since that table was based on the regular change of valence with atomic weight.""(Asimov).""On May 10 1852 Frankland read to the Royal Society a paper on organic metallic compounds (the paper offered) in which he made the emperical observation that elements possessed fixed combining powers, or ""only room, so to speak, for the attachement of a fixed and definite number of the atoms of other elements."" The expression ""valence"" or ""Valency"" began to be used by other chemists only after 1865, wheras Frankland tended to use the misleading term ""atomicity""....Frankland's teching position at the Royal College of Chemistry and his influence on the Department of Sciences and Art science examinations enembled him to spread the idea through the younger generation of British chemists.""(DSB V, p. 126).The exact inception, however, of the theory of chemical valencies can be traced to an 1852 paper by Edward Frankland, in which he combined the older theories of free radicals and ""type theory"" with thoughts on chemical affinity to show that certain elements have the tendency to combine with other elements to form compounds containing 3, i.e. in the three atom groups (e.g. NO3, NH3, NI3, etc.) or 5, i.e. in the five atom groups (e.g. NO5, NH4O, PO5, etc.), equivalents of the attached elements. It is in this manner, according to Frankland, that their affinities are best satisfied. (Wikepedia).

Emmenologia in qua Fluxus Muliebris Menstrui. Phænomena, Periodi, Vitia, cum Medendi Methodo, ad Rationes Mechanicas exiguntur. Huic Editioni accedunt ejusdam Authoris Prælectiones Chymicæ.
Paris, G. Cavelier, 1727. Cont. full mottled calf, raised bands, richly gilt back. Top of spine chipped. (14),238,(22) pp. and bound with: FREIND, JOH. Prælectiones Chymicæ, in quibus omnes fere Operationes Chymicæ. Ad vera Principia, & ipsius Naturæ Leges rediguntur. Editio nova, auctior & emandatior. Paris, G. Cavelier, 1727. (2),XIV,102 pp. + Appendix Paris, 1727. 32 pp. (Authors reply to critics).
Emmenologia has been considered a remarkable exposition from the iatro-mathematical or mechanical point of view. In 1704 he was appointed to the chair of Chemistry in Oxford and delivered lectures theron in the Asmolean Museum, and in 1705 went as army physician to Spain with the Earl of Peterborough. (Ferguson I:290-91). Freind is furthermore considered the first English historian of medicine.

Modifications que la Chaleur fait éprouver aux Acides Tartrique et Paratartrique.
(Paris, Crochard, 1838). No wrappers in ""Annales de Chimie et de Physique"", 2. Series, Tome 68, Cahier 4 (entire issue offered). Pp. 353-446. Fremy's paper: pp. 353-387.
""Frémy’s first project was to continue Pelouze’s studies of iron oxides, and he expanded them to include oxides of chromium, tin, and antimony that form salts with alkalies in the same way as manganese. In 1835 he published a memoir in the Annales de chimie on the splitting of fats by sulfuric acid, a process that was adopted by French industry. From then on, Frémy pursued scientific investigations as professor and industrial work as consultant (later as administrator of the Compagnie de Saint-Gobin). He proposed improvements in the chamber process for making sulfuric acid (low temperature and ample air and water), and he introduced the residue from burning pyrites as the raw material for iron production. From research on the setting of hydraulic cement, Frémy proceeded to the synthesis of rubies by heating alumina with potassium chromate and barium fluoride.""(DSB).
"FREMY, EDMOND. - TOWARDS ISOLATION OF FLUORINE FREMY'S SALT.

Recherches sur les Fluorures. Premier Mémoire.
Paris, Victor Masson, 1856. No wrappers. Extracted from: ""Annales de Chimie et de Physique"", 3e Series - Tome 47. Pp. 5-50. Textillustr. With titlepage to vol. 47. Some scattered brownspots.
First appearance of Fremy's importent paper on the isolation of fluorine, a historic paper in electro-chemistry. The existence of the element fluorine had been well known for many years (since 1813, Davy), but all attempts to isolate it had failed and some experimenters had died in the attempt.""The history of fluorine is a tragic record. Marggraf described hydrofluoric acid in 1768, and Scheele studied it three years later. Lavoisier..., thought that all acids contain oxygen, but Davy showed that this one does not. Ampere suggested to Davy that hydrofluoric acid must be composed of hydrogen and an unknown element. Poul Schutzenberger expressed the belief that this unknown substance, fluorine, would be found to be the most active of all elements, and correctly predicted some of its properties. Ti is this extreme activity of the element that made its liberation such a difficult and dangerous task and brought agony and death to some of the pioneer investigators.""(Weeks p. 266-67). ""An important step was made by Frémy, Moissan’s first mentor, when he succeeded in preparing pure, anhydrous HF and also KHF2, so-called Frémy’s salt, expressed ""KFl.HFl"" using the notations of that time. Frémy had come very close to finding the solution by electrolysing anhydrous HF, molten calcium fluoride or potassium fluoride, but he seemed not to have had the idea of replacing these compounds by KHF2, perhaps because of the high melting point of the compound, TF = 293°C, which would have led to insurmountable technical difficulties.""
