Meaning of "cadmia" in English

"Cadmia" refers to an ancient term for a type of zinc carbonate or oxide. Historically, it was used in alchemy and early chemistry to describe the mineral residue found in zinc ore or the by-product of zinc smelting. In alchemical texts, cadmia was often associated with the refining processes and was sometimes considered impure forms of zinc. The term has largely fallen out of modern scientific usage but remains an interesting part of historical studies in metallurgy and chemistry.

Meaning of "cadmia" in French

"Cadmia" in French is a term used similarly to its English counterpart to describe the mineral deposits found on the walls of furnaces during the smelting of zinc. It is related to alchemical and early chemical processes where such mineral by-products were significant. Much like in English, the term is somewhat archaic and primarily of historical and educational interest, reflecting the evolution of chemical sciences in both language contexts.
