Electro-negative :: Electro-negative (n.) A body which passes to the positive pole in electrolysis.

Electro-stereotype :: Electro-stereotype (n.) Same as Electrotype.

Halogen :: Halogen (n.) An electro-negative element or radical, which, by combination with a metal, forms a haloid salt; especially, chlorine, bromine, and iodine; sometimes, also, fluorine and cyanogen. See Chlorine family, under Chlorine..

Basylous :: Basylous (a.) Pertaining to, or having the nature of, a basyle; electro-positive; basic; -- opposed to chlorous..
