To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The carbonic acid gas, perfectly pure and dry, is drawn from a reservoir through a tube not represented in the figure, and is forced into the condenser K, which is cooled by the liquid sul- phurous acid, to a temperature of 65, and is there liquefied. H is a tube of stout copper in connection with the condenser K by a narrow tube k. When a sufficient quantity of car- bonic acid has been liquefied, the connection with the gasholder is cut off, and by working the pumps, E and F, a vacuum is creat...ed over the liquid carbonic acid in H, which produces so great a cold as to solidify it. L is a stout wrought-iron retort capable of standing a pressure of 1, 500 atmospheres. In it are placed the substances by whose chemical actions the gas is produced ; potassium chlorate in the case of oxygen. This retort is closed by a strong copper tube in which the actual condensation is effected, near the end of which is a specially-constructed manometer R, and which is closed by a stopcock X. When the four pumps are set in action, for which a steam engine of 1 5 horse-power is required, heat is applied to the retort.
