| Title | Unpublished paper, 'On spontaneous evaporation' by Benjamin Guy Babington |
| Date | 1859 |
| Description | Babington aims to make known certain powers of attraction and repulsion which are possessed by soluble substances in relation to their solvent, and which, in the case of water, are measured by the amount of loss, on spontaneous evaporation, in the weight of solutions of different salts and other substances, as compared with the loss of weight in water.
