- W4243348387 abstract "THE lecture given by Prof. H. E. Armstrong at the Royal Institution on April 7, under the auspices of the Society of Chemical Industry, was cordially appreciated, and was in many respects noteworthy. It was intended to direct the attention of chemists to the need for co-ordination of their observations and theories with those of physicists. With characteristic zest, Prof. Armstrong warned these scientific workers not to cling too long or too tenaciously to ideas imposed upon them by custom. Youth had fondled a ocalf, and age, he declared, still cuddled the animal, forgetful that it had become an ox. He confessed that he had been led to revert to the study of the relationship of physics to chemistry by contemplating a thunderstorm. What explanation had chemistry to offer of phosphorescence, for example, of the phosphorescence of ozone? This, and kindred phenomena, naturally reminded chemists and physicists alike of the classic experiments performed by Sir James Dewar at the Royal Institution, and Prof. Armstrong expressed the thanks of the Society of Chemical Industry to the Institution for enabling those experiments to be witnessed. With the skilful aid of Mr. Heath and Mr. Green, about twenty of the Dewar experiments were then successfully repeated, to the delight of the audience, and of the veteran professor, who manipulated the tubes, the flasks, the models, and the lantern-slides in a manner that recalled many a victory over the perversity of matter. To illustrate another phase of his theme, a demonstration was given of the method employed by Mr. G. L. Addenbrooke to investigate the effects of desiccation of the dielectric in Faraday's ice-pail experiment. Prof. Armstrong also insisted upon the necessity for studying the forces that manifest themselves at surfaces of contact between electrodes and dielectrics or partial conductors." @default.
