TitlePaper, 'On a series of salts and of a base containing chromium and urea (No. 1)' by W J [William James] Sell
CreatorSell; William James (1847-1915); British chemist
Date1882
DescriptionSell writes: 'Various compounds of urea with metallic salts and oxides have been described by Werther and Liebig. Some of these are suggestive of an analogy between urea and ammonia, while others seem altogether anomalous. The following account of some chromium compounds of urea may help to throw some light on the nature of such compounds, for they appear to show that a very definite base is formed by a combination of urea with chromium.'
