An Analysis of Molecular Volumes from the Point of View of the Lewis-Langmuir Theory of Molecular Structure: A Dissertation (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from An Analysis of Molecular Volumes From the Point of View of the Lewis-Langmuir Theory of Molecular Structure: A Dissertation
Two facts, in particular, are brought out by the foregoing analysis. First, isosteric atoms, molecules and groups appear to have the same volume regardless of the particular kinds of atoms of which they are composed. In other words, the number and arrangement of electrons in the outer shells of atoms or groups of atoms is the predominating factor in determining their volume. Second, the volumes of other atoms, particularly of the more complex ones, are intimately related to the volumes of the rare gases.
It is realized that the possibilities of the method of treatment used in this paper are by no means exhausted and the writer expects at some future time to consider further the implications of the present work.

An Analysis of Molecular Volumes From the Point of View of the Lewis-Langmuir
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating world of molecular volumes and their relationship to the structure of atoms and molecules. The author delves into the groundbreaking Lewis-Langmuir theory of valence and atomic structure, a cornerstone of modern chemistry. The book examines how this theory explains the behavior of molecules and how their volumes can be used to predict their properties. Using the insights of this theory, the author investigates the volumes of various compounds and how they relate to the specific arrangements of electrons surrounding the atoms' nuclei. The book explores the concept of "isosteres," groups of atoms that share the same electronic structure, and their implications for molecular volume. The author examines a wide array of compounds, including methane, ammonia, water, ethylene, acetylene, nitrogen, oxygen, and various hydrocarbons, to illustrate these principles. Through detailed analysis and careful comparison of observed and calculated volumes, the author presents compelling evidence that the volume of a molecule is primarily determined by the arrangement of its electrons, not just the types of atoms present. This book offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between molecular structure and volume, revealing the underlying principles governing their behavior. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332099337_0
