Nitroprussic :: Nitroprussic (a.) Pertaining to, derived from, or designating, a complex acid called nitroprussic acid, obtained indirectly by the action of nitric acid on potassium ferrocyanide (yellow prussiate), as a red crystalline unstable substance. It forms salts called nitroprussides, which give a rich purple color with alkaline subphides..

Ferro- :: Ferro- () A prefix, or combining form, indicating ferrous iron as an ingredient; as, ferrocyanide..

Carbamine :: Carbamine (n.) An isocyanide of a hydrocarbon radical. The carbamines are liquids, usually colorless, and of unendurable odor..

Nitrogen :: Nitrogen (n.) A colorless nonmetallic element, tasteless and odorless, comprising four fifths of the atmosphere by volume. It is chemically very inert in the free state, and as such is incapable of supporting life (hence the name azote still used by French chemists); but it forms many important compounds, as ammonia, nitric acid, the cyanides, etc, and is a constituent of all organized living tissues, animal or vegetable. Symbol N. Atomic weight 14. It was formerly regarded as a permanent noncon

Cyanotype :: Cyanotype (n.) A photographic picture obtained by the use of a cyanide.

Ferrocyanate :: Ferrocyanate (n.) A salt of ferrocyanic acid; a ferrocyanide.

Ferricyanide :: Ferricyanide (n.) One of a complex series of double cyanides of ferric iron and some other base.

Aurocyanide :: Aurocyanide (n.) A double cyanide of gold and some other metal or radical; -- called also cyanaurate.

Ferri- :: Ferri- () A combining form indicating ferric iron as an ingredient; as, ferricyanide..

Hydrocyanide :: Hydrocyanide (n.) A compound of hydrocyanic acid with a base; -- distinguished from a cyanide, in which only the cyanogen so combines..

Sulphocyanogen :: Sulphocyanide (n.) See Sulphocyanate.
