The Laws of Gases: Memoirs by Robert Boyle and E. H. Amagat (1899) is a book written by Carl Barus. It is a compilation of two memoirs written by two prominent scientists, Robert Boyle and E. H. Amagat, on the subject of gases. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the laws governing the behavior of gases and their properties. The first memoir, written by Robert Boyle, is titled New Experiments Physico-Mechanical, Touching the Spring of the Air, and Its Effects. It is a detailed account of the experiments Boyle conducted to study the properties of air and the behavior of gases. Boyle's work was instrumental in establishing the fundamental laws of gases, including Boyle's Law, which states that the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure when temperature is held constant.The second memoir, written by E. H. Amagat, is titled On the Compressibility of Liquids and Gases. In this memoir, Amagat presents his research on the compressibility of gases and liquids. He developed a technique to measure the compressibility of gases and used it to study the behavior of various gases at different pressures and temperatures. Amagat's work was important in establishing the relationship between the compressibility of gases and their density.Overall, The Laws of Gases: Memoirs by Robert Boyle and E. H. Amagat (1899) is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the development of our understanding of the behavior of gases. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of science or the fundamental laws of nature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
