...relating to the law of the " conservation of force." According to these results, these sizes are such that if a drop of water were to be magnified to the size of the earth, its molecules, or parts dependent on the forces of chemical physics, would be seen to range from the...

...ourselves to a scheme of threefold magnification. Lord Kelvin has shown that if a drop of water were magnified to the size of the earth the molecules of water would be of a size intermediate between that of a cricketball and of a marble. Now each molecule contains three...

...would consist of a large number of molecules. According to the conclusions of Sir William Thomson, if a drop of water were to be magnified to the size of the earth, the molecules, of which it is made up, would be coarser than fine shot and probably finer than cricketballs. 4. Physical...

...thousand millions of them in a cubic inch. He expresses this result in the following rather striking way, that, if a drop of water were to be magnified to the size of the earth, then the coarseness of grain that it would show, owing to its molecular structure, would be somewhere...

From what has been said as to the genesis of Daltoii's ideas, it is clear that this statement of Thomson...times that atom is heavier than hydrogen, this element DALTON'S ATOMIC WEIGHTS. 151 being taken as the unit because it is the lightest known substance ? In...

...It has been calculated that if a globe of water, the size of a football six inches in diameter, were magnified to the size of the earth, the molecules of water would occupy spaces greater than those filled by small shot and less than those filled by footballs. These...
