Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Experimental Study of Gases: An Account of the Experimental Methods Involved in the Determination of the Properties of Gases, and of the More Important Researches Connected With the Subject
It is probable that in no other section of chemistry or physics do such discrepancies occur as exist among the experi mental values assigned by different investigators to the physical constants relating to gases. The existence of such irregularities renders the treatment of the subject rather difficult; and as in many cases the methods of manipulation, and the manner in which the gases experimented upon were prepared, are only briefly described in the original papers, it is often impossible to arrive at the probable sources of error. In stating results I have in many instances attempted to indicate to what extent they may be relied upon.

Excerpt from Study of Gases: An Account of the Experimental Methods Involved in the Determination of the Properties of Gases, and of the More Important Researches, Connected With the Subject
The manipulation of gases has been the object of attention at various epochs of chemical history. Scheele collected his gases in bladders; Priestley, unconsciously imitating Mayow, brought the pneumatic trough into use; and Bunsen devised processes still employed in analysis of gases. The device of Sprengel's pump, and later that of Töpler, has placed a new instrument at the disposal of chemists; and the ingenious methods of Hampson and Linde of producing liquid air in quantity has made it possible to deal with gases as easily, if not more so, as with liquids. In the research on the gases of the helium series a number of workers, including Lord Rayleigh, and Drs. Collie and Travers, have made use of apparatus, a description of which does not always appear in the original papers on the subject, but which will be found treated of in this volume. Dr. Travers has also taken the opportunity of tabulating the more important constants relating to gases; and what is perhaps of still greater moment, of directing the attention of chemists and physicists to lacunæ in knowledge, which suggest subject for research.

Calificación del vendedor: 4 de 5 estrellas
Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed exploration of the experimental methods used to study gases, a field that has fascinated scientists for centuries. From the early days of collecting gases in bladders to the ingenious techniques developed for liquefying air, the author meticulously traces the evolution of gas manipulation. He delves into the fundamental gas laws and their practical applications, highlighting the discrepancies that often arise in experimental values. The book provides an invaluable guide to the intricacies of gas manipulation, with insightful descriptions of mercury pumps, stopcocks, and other essential equipment. It also sheds light on the challenges and triumphs of scientists in their pursuit of understanding the properties of gases, particularly the gases of the helium group, a discovery that revolutionized our understanding of the periodic table. The authorââ â¢s deep knowledge of the subject, coupled with his clear and engaging writing style, makes this book a must -read for anyone seeking to gain a comprehensive understanding of the history and methods of gas research. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
