1803Best.-Nr. 44130Halle Rengerschen Buchhandlung 1803. Without wrappers as extracted from "Annalen der Physik. Herausgegeben von Ludwig Wilhelm Gilbert" Bd. 12. Pp. 257-291 a. 1 folded engraved plate showing the experimental apparatus used. First appearance in German of this extremely important paper in which Gay-Lussac first formulated the law the Gay-Lussac's Law stating that if the mass and pressure of a gas are held constant then gas volume increases linearly as the temperature rises. This is sometimes written as V = k T where k is a constant dependent on the type mass and pressure of the gas and T is temperature on an absolute scale. In terms of the ideal gas law k = n R / P."In 1802 he Gay-Lussac showed that different gases all expanded by equal amounts with rise in temperature. Charles had made the same discovery some years earlier but had not published it; the credit therefore belongs to Gay-Lussac at least as much and probably more. This was an extremely importent discovery which Avogadro was to use within the decade to formulate hid long-neglected hypothesis that equal volumes of different gases at equal temperatures contained equal numbers of particles."Asimov.Magie "A Source Book in Physics" p.165-172 - Leicester & Klickstein "A Source Book of Chemistry" p. 374-379. - Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1802 C. unknown
