Excerpt from Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Vol. 1 The light therefore increases with n, being zero when n 1 1, and 100 per cent, or all reflected when r r: 00. This law also holds for other angles of incidence, and serves to explain many familiar phenomena. The brilliancy Of the diamond is mainly due to its high index, causing it to reflect about 20 per cent of the light falling normally on it, while glass returns but 4 per cent.

Excerpt from Proceedings of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, Vol. 35: From May, 1899, to May, 1900 The advance of modern physical chemistry has been largely due to the application to physico - chemical problems of the first and second laws Of thermodynamics and the gas lam - the latter both directly and by analogy. Upon this basis the whole theoretical treatment of chemical equilibrium rests at present. For this reason it may not be without interest to attempt to express the relations deduced from these laws in a Single equation, the most convenient and the most general possible, which may serve to systematize a part Of our present knowledge, and perhaps point out new laws. Such an attempt will be made in this paper. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
