The Laws of Gases: Memoirs by Robert Boyle and E. H. Amagat (1899)

The Laws of Gases: Memoirs by Robert Boyle and E.H. Amagat (1899) is a book edited by Carl Barus. The book contains two memoirs written by Robert Boyle and E.H. Amagat, two prominent scientists who made significant contributions to the study of gases. The first memoir, written by Boyle, is titled ""New Experiments Physico-Mechanical, Touching the Spring of the Air, and Its Effects."" In this memoir, Boyle describes his experiments with gases and his discovery of Boyle's Law, which states that the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional at a constant temperature. The second memoir, written by Amagat, is titled ""On the Constitution of the Dense Gases."" In this memoir, Amagat describes his experiments with dense gases and his discovery of Amagat's Law, which states that the volume of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the volumes of the individual gases at the same temperature and pressure. The Laws of Gases: Memoirs by Robert Boyle and E.H. Amagat (1899) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science and the study of gases.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
