To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such elements are said to belong to the same "family, " or " group, " and it will be observed that there are eight families of this sort in the table. All members of one family tend to have the same combining power, or "valency" (see Section 34, below), and their compounds with other elements tend to resemble each other closely. Thus hi the second column, lithium, so- dium, potassium, rubidium and caesium are all metals forming strongly alkaline compounds with hydrogen and oxygen, of which ordi...nary "washing soda" is an ex- ample. Each of these elements has normally a combin- ing power of one, that is one atom of each of them will unite with one atom of such an element as chlorine, which in turn unites with one atom of hydrogen. As we pass from left to right in the table the combining power of the represented elements increases and then diminishes, periodically. Copper, silver and gold which are classed in the second family differ from the other five elements in the family but form a transition group to those in the third column.
