Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on autocatalytic decomposition of silver oxide. The author, an expert in chemistry, reveals that this singular phenomenon was initially discovered as part of an experiment in which silver oxide was heated at a constant temperature to observe its decomposition pressure. Using a thermostat and manometer to monitor the decomposition, the author witnessed an unexpected reaction: the rate of decomposition accelerated as the reaction progressed. This acceleration prompted further investigation. One by one, potential causes were eliminated. Ultimately, the author suggests the presence of metallic silver as a catalyst for the reaction. Later experiments with mixed silver oxide and metallic silver confirmed the catalytic action. Through carefully designed experiments and analysis of reaction velocity curves, the author reveals the intricacies of this decomposition and its similarity to homogeneous reactions, which stands out as unique among heterogeneous systems. The author goes on to study the influence of temperature and the nature of the silver oxide, identifying key factors that affect the rate of decomposition. The author's findings provide valuable insights into the behavior of solid substances in heterogeneous systems and have implications for understanding reactions involving solids. Moreover, the work highlights the importance of considering the physical and chemical changes that can occur in solids, which may have broader applications in various fields such as materials science and catalysis.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book embarks on a captivating exploration of the fundamental concepts that underpin our understanding of the natural world. Delving into the realms of science and philosophy, the author examines the historical development and evolution of key ideas such as space, time, matter, and number. Drawing upon a rich tapestry of scientific and mathematical discoveries, the author sheds light on the methods and tools employed by scientists in their quest for knowledge. With insightful anecdotes and thought-provoking examples, the author demystifies complex concepts, making them accessible to a wide audience. The book challenges traditional notions of absolute truth and reality, emphasizing the ever-evolving nature of scientific understanding. It explores the interplay between the objective and subjective, highlighting the role of human perception and interpretation in shaping our knowledge of the world. Through engaging discussions on topics like non-Euclidean geometry and the limitations of arithmetic, the author invites readers to question their own assumptions and embrace the inherent dynamism of scientific thought. Ultimately, this book offers a profound reflection on the nature of scientific inquiry and the intricate relationship between the human mind and the universe we seek to comprehend.

Hardcover. Condición: Fine. Gilbert N. Lewis and Richard C. Tolman, The Principle of Relativity and Non-Newtonian Mechanics. In: the full volume of the London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science; London. Taylor & Francis, 1909. Vol. 18, Sixth Series, viii, 944 pp., 28 plates, with the Lewis/Tolman on pp 510-523. Beautifully rebound in half-morocco over marbled boards, with new endpapers and pastedowns, and with subtly-decorated dentelles with raised bands, and spine labels in red and black. The text is clean and bright, and the binding outstanding. [++] First appearance of this paper published outside the U.S.[++] "In 1909, Lewis and Tolman, then physical chemists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, wrote a paper which built on an earlier paper by Lewis. This gave a more mechanics based approach to the subject, in contrast to Einstein's original work which drew on electrodynamics. This work played a significant role in the early development of special relativity theory, then only four years old and still under heated discussion worldwide. This paper with Tolman, though a relatively minor part of Lewis's overall work, has historical and pedagogical value and gives a glimpse of his breadth, early growth and influence as a scientist."--"G N Lewis and Special Relativity. A Little Known Side of a Great Chemist" by Rajaram Nityananda in "Resonance", July 2019. [++]"The publication of Einstein's theory of relativity (1905) and his mass-energy equation renewed Lewis' interest in his early speculations on radiation. He derived the mass-energy equation from his early idea of the pressure of light without using the principle of relativity (1908). This striking concurrence of his view with Einstein's convinced Lewis of the value of his youthful ideas and made him one of the very few early supporters of Einstein and relativity in America. A second paper with Richard Tolman (1912), deriving Einstein's equation from conservation laws and the principle of relativity, illustrates Lewis' delight in the bizarre paradoxes of relativity theory that most people found so profoundly disturbing: Lewis was an iconoclast and reveled in the overthrow of long-established ideas."--Complete DSB online (Lewis) [++] Relativistic Mass concept. "In the first years after 1905, following Lorentz and Einstein, the terms longitudinal and transverse mass were still in use. However, those expressions were replaced by the concept of relativistic mass, an expression which was first defined by Gilbert N. Lewis and Richard C. Tolman in 1909."--Wikipedia  (The first appearance of this paper was 1909, "The Principle of Relativity, and Non-Newtonian Mechanics," Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 44 (25): 709726.) [++] Gilbert N. Lewis (1875-1964) "physical chemist best known for his contributions to chemical thermodynamics, the electron-pair model of the covalent bond, the electronic theory of acids and bases, the separation and study of deuterium and its compounds, and his work on phosphorescence and the triplet state (in which the quantum number for total spin angular momentum is 1.While still a student at Harvard, he had postulated that light could exert a pressure on dilute matter in outer space, and he later introduced the term photon to describe the particulate nature of electromagnetic radiation.
