Ampere's paper: pp. Some scattered brownspots. First appearance of Amperes second paper on molecular physics."The noumenal aspect of chemistry fascinated Ampère. Although his derivation of Avogadro’s law came three years after Avogadro had enunciated it the law is known today in France as the Avogadro-Ampère law. This was Ampère’s first excursion into molecular physics and was followed almost immediately by a second. In 1815 he published a paper demonstrating the relation between Mariotte’s Boyle’s law and volumes and pressures of gases at the same temperature. The paper is of some interest as a pioneer effort along with Laplac’s great papers on capillarity in the application of Mathematical analysis to the molecular realm."DSB.The volume contains 3 importent papers by Jean-Baptiste Biot on polarisation of light and Berzelius "Experiences pour déterminer les proportions définies dans lequelles les élémens de la nature organique sont combinés" "Suite." 1-2 pp. 5-33 pp. 170-190 a. pp. 296-232 unknown
1799rif. 44095Halle Rengerschen Buchhandlung 1799 1800. Without wrappers extracted from "Annalen der Physik. Herausgegeben von Ludwig Wilhelm Gilbert" Bd. 2. p. 483 one page. and Bd. 6 pp. 105-115. Some scattered brownspots. First German translation of Davy's announcement the announcement on 1 page of his discovery of the unusual anaesthetic effects of nitrous oxide which on being inhaled gave rise to a giddy intoxicated feeling. On announcing his discovery he says that he will publish a paper discribing the experiments with the gas later. This is the paper offered here also in the first German version. Both the announcement and the paper were issued in the "Annalen" the same year as they appeared in Nicholson's Journal.The gas was first synthesized by English natural philosopher and chemist Joseph Priestley in 1772 who called it phlogisticated nitrous air."Following Priestley's discovery Humphry Davy of the Pneumatic Institute in Bristol England experimented with the physiological properties of the gas such as its effects upon respiration. He even administered the gas to visitors to the institute and after watching the amusing effects on people who inhaled it coined the term 'laughing gas'! Davy even noted the anaesthetic effects of the gas: "As nitrous oxide in its extensive operation appears capable of destroying physical pain it may probably be used with advantage during surgical operations in which no great effusion of blood takes place".Wikipedia."Davy discovered the anaesthetic properties of nitrous oxide and suggested its use during surgiical operations a suggestion which was not turned to useful account until 1844."Garrison & Morton 5646 not mentioning the announcing of its discovery in 1799. unknown
