240 OXIDES, EAETIIS, AND ACIDS. feet; r, indistinet. Fracture conclioidal. Opaque. Lustre metallic, imperfect. Iron-black, sometimes passing into steel- grey. Streak black, in the variety from Spessart and St. Gotthardt brown. Brittle, h = 5'0...6'0. g = 4-66...6-31. More or less magnetic. Infusible before the blowpipe. With salt of phosphorus in the inner flame forms a red glass. Imparts a blue colour to hot concentrated sulphuric acid without dissolving. In fine powder soluble in concentrated hydrochloric acid. When the solution is concentrated as much as possible without being decomposed, it yields a precipitate of titanic acid on being largely diluted with water and boiled for a considerable time.
