hydrochloric \hy`drochlo"ric\, a. hydro-, 2 + chloric: cf. f.
   hydrochlorique. chem.
   pertaining to, or compounded of, chlorine and hydrogen gas;
   as, hydrochloric acid; chlorhydric.
   1913 webster

   hydrochloric acid chem., hydrogen chloride; a colorless,
      corrosive gas, hcl, of pungent, suffocating odor. it is
      made in great quantities in the soda process, by the
      action of sulphuric acid on common salt. it has a great
      affinity for water, and the commercial article is a strong
      solution of the gas in water. it is a typical acid, and is
      an indispensable agent in commercial and general chemical
      work. called also muriatic acid and chlorhydric acid.

ion \i"on\ imac"o^n, n. gr. 'io`n, neut, of 'iw`n, p. pr.
   of 'ie`nai to go.
   1. elec. chem. an atom or goup of atoms radical carrying
      an electrical charge. it is contrasted with neutral atoms
      or molecules, and free radicals. certain compounds, such
      as sodium chloride, are composed of complementary ions in
      the solid crystalline as well as in solution. others,
      notably acids such as hydrogen chloride, may occur as
      neutral molecules in the pure liquid or gas forms, and
      ionize almost completely in dilute aqueous solutions. in
      solutions as in water ions are frequently bound
      non-covalently with the molecules of solvent, and in that
      case are said to be solvated. according to the
      electrolytic dissociation theory, the molecules of
      electrolytes are divided into ions by water and other
      solvents. an ion consists of one or more atoms and carries
      one unit charges of electricity, 3.4 x 10^-10
      electrostatic units, or a multiple of this. those which
      are positively electrified hydrogen and the metals are
      called cations; negative ions hydroxyl and acidic atoms
      or groups are called anions.

   note: thus, hydrochloric acid hcl dissociates, in aqueous
         solution, into the hydrogen ion, h+, and the chlorine
         ion, cl-; ferric nitrate, feno33, yields the
         ferric ion, fe+++, and nitrate ions, no3-, no3-,
         no3-. when a solution containing ions is made part of
         an electric circuit, the cations move toward the
         cathode, the anions toward the anode. this movement is
         called migration, and the velocity of it differs for
         different kinds of ions. if the electromotive force is
         sufficient, electrolysis ensues: cations give up their
         charge at the cathode and separate in metallic form or
         decompose water, forming hydrogen and alkali;
         similarly, at the anode the element of the anion
         separates, or the metal of the anode is dissolved, or
         decomposition occurs. aluminum and chlorine are
         elements prepared predominantly by such electrolysis,
         and depends on dissolving compounds in a solvent where
         the element forms ions. electrolysis is also used in
         refining other metals, such as copper and silver. cf.
         anion, cation.

   2. one of the small electrified particles into which the
      molecules of a gas are broken up under the action of the
      electric current, of ultraviolet and certain other rays,
      and of high temperatures. to the properties and behavior
      of ions the phenomena of the electric discharge through
      rarefied gases and many other important effects are
      ascribed. at low pressures the negative ions appear to be
      electrons; the positive ions, atoms minus an electron. at
      ordinary pressures each ion seems to include also a number
      of attached molecules. ions may be formed in a gas in
      various ways.

   point system of type bodies type founding, a system
      adopted by the type founders of the united states by which
      the various sizes of type have been so modified and
      changed that each size bears an exact proportional
      relation to every other size. the system is a modification
      of a french system, and is based on the pica body. this
      pica body is divided into twelfths, which are termed
      "points," and every type body consist of a given number of
      these points. many of the type founders indicate the new
      sizes of type by the number of points, and the old names
      are gradually being done away with. by the point system
      type founders cast type of a uniform size and height,
      whereas formerly fonts of pica or other type made by
      different founders would often vary slightly so that they
      could not be used together. there are no type in actual
      use corresponding to the smaller theoretical sizes of the
      point system. in some cases, as in that of ruby, the term
      used designates a different size from that heretofore so
      called.
