Title | Paper, 'Some relations of heat to voltaic and thermo-electric action of metals in electrolytes' by G [George] Gore |
Date | 1883 |
Description | Gore states that the object of his research is 'to ascertain the thermo-electric action of a series of metals in particular liquids, and to examine the relations of the thermo-electric to the chemico-electric behaviour of metals in electrolytes, and to ordinary chemical corrosion, and the source of the voltaic current.' With this object, the thermo-electric tension series, also the chemico-electric tension series, at 60° and 160° F. of thirteen metals in solutions of 22 different salts, alkalies, and acids, are experimentally found, and are shown in two tables. The same thermo- and chemico-electric series are also determined in solutions of different strengths of the same substances, and are also exhibited in two tables; and the effects of difference of strength of liquid upon the orders of those series are inferred from the results.
Annotations in pencil and ink. Includes two diagrams of experimental apparatus.
