Robert Boyle Daily 40 no. 7 – Robert Boyle Daily 40 Hall of Fame! Congratulations to these writers! Robert Boyle was an Irish chemist who lived from 1627-1691. He believed that everything was made of a universal matter. Boyle invented the vacuum pump and the acid/base test. He discovered that metals gain weight from heat, and he realized that a gas’s volume is inversely proportional to its pressure. --Isaac Robert Boyle was a 17th century Irish inventor, physicist, natural philosopher, and chemist with a base in alchemy. Influenced by the Atomists, he believed in universal matter, primary concretions, and transmutation. He developed the vacuum and identified the natural law that air pressure is inversely proportional to volume. --Victoria Robert Boyle was an Irish chemist who lived from 1627-1691. He had believed in transmutation of metals because he thought that all atoms were the same, just different size and shape. He also developed the idea that pressure and volume are inversely related, called Boyle's Law. --Tatiana Robert Boyle was born in Ireland in 1627 and died in 1691. He is most famous for Boyles law and created the idea of “universal matter” where atoms bonded together to create different substances but didn't see that only certain atoms created certain substances. --Alanna Robert Boyle was born January 25, 1627 in Lismore, Ireland. He distinguished between mixtures and compounds and used a process he called "analysis" to detect their ingredients. Boyle rediscovered the works of the atomists and disagreed with Aristotle's elements. He is best known for formulating Boyle's law. --Andrew 17th-century Irish alchemist, chemist, and natural philosopher Robert Boyle most notably found the pressure and volume of gases to be inversely proportional. He believed that everything was made out of the same type of particles arranged in different ways (a concept he called “universal-matter”) and that transmutation was possible. --Chantal The chemist Robert Boyle lived from 1627-1691 in Ireland. Disagreeing with Aristotle’s elements, he affirmed that everything was made of the same atoms, calling them “universal matter.” Boyle focused more on gases; Boyle’s Law states that the amount of air pressure on a gas is inversely proportional to the volume. --Christine Robert Boyle, born 1627 in Ireland , was a chemist (considered the founder of modern chemistry) and an alchemist who contributed to modern science by demonstrating the significance of air in combustion, respiration, and sound transmission, distinguished mixtures from compounds, advocated scientific experimentation, and supported the existence of a vacuum. --Dawy Robert Boyle (1627-1691) accepted the idea of atomism and believed that everything was made out of the same atoms with different shape and size. He considered atoms are elements. He also discovered the way of using purple juice of violet to test for acids and bases. --Dee Dee Robert Boyle (1627-1691) born in Ireland was one of the many people disagreed with Aristotle about the 4 elements. By developing the characteristics of gases and proposing an atomic theory, where he formulated the first definition of an element and conducted many experiments he influenced alchemy and chemistry. --Denise Daily 40 no. 7 – Robert Boyle Robert Boyle was an Irish alchemist living from 1627 to 1691. He agreed with the atomists that matter was made of tiny atoms. Boyle also classified acids and bases using violet juice. Influenced by Galileo, Boyle found out that air was important in combustion, sound transmission, and respiration. --Eric Robert Boyle was a philosopher and scientists who rediscovered the atomists’ theories. He, like the atomists, believed that everything was composed of tiny, indestructible particles. However, he believed that all atoms were exactly the same but were put together differently to make different materials. --Eyad Robert Boyle was the last of fourteen children born in Cork, Ireland. He assembled what we would today call a "research group", developed a key tool- the vacuum pump, was the first to use the term "chemical analysis", and is remembered by the gas law, Boyle's Law. --Gennelle Robert Boyle(1627-1691) was born in County Cork, Ireland. He was an atomist and an alchemist. He stated that matter is made of the same particles that are arranged in different positions, which supported the idea of transmutation. He discovered Boyle’s Law, which states that pressure and volume are inversely proportionate. --Jaya Robert Boyle (1627 - 1691), often regarded as the first modern chemist, was an Irish physicist, chemist, and scientist famous for his gas law, Boyle's Law. He often worked with a vacuum pump. With it, he discovered that air is required for sound transmission, respiration, and combustion. --Jeff Robert Boyle was the first to ignite sulfur-tipped wood which later became our modern matches. He was also one of the first to experiment with phosphorus and document his findings although he did not discover it. He developed a natural pH indicator by using extracted juices of a violet. --Julia Robert Boyle (1627-1691) was born in Cork Ireland . He believed that elements are made from a universal atom. When put in a specific order it makes an element. He also discovered that air plays a major part for combustion, respiration, and sound transmission. --Karen Robert Boyle was one of the first chemists to study air. He resurrected the ideas of the early atomists from 1627-1691 in Ireland. He invented the vacuum pump to study the properties of air, and also learned how to use natural indicators (like violet-juice) to understand acids and bases. --Katy Robert Boyle made many contribution to chemistry through his work with gases, realizing the necessity of air for respiration and combustion and creating “Boyle’s Law” which states that volume is inversely proportional to pressure. Although an alchemist, he is sometimes considered the first modern chemist because of his experimental approach. --Madeline Irish alchemist, chemist, and natural philosopher Robert Boyle is known for his studies of gases, in particular, oxygen and its properties and the Boyles law that measured air pressure and volume. Boyle was also known for his concept of universal matter, claiming that everything was made from one atom. -- Tokunbo Robert Boyle was born in Cork, Ireland, and lived from 1627-1691. He recognized that air is necessary in combustion, respiration, and sound transmission. Boyle believed in atoms, but he thought that everything was made of the same atoms, and that different substances simply had atoms arranged differently. --Yulan .

According to astrophysicist David Palmer, about 75 percent of all the known elemental matter that exists is composed of hydrogen. The nucleus of a hydrogen atom is made out of a single proton, which is a positively charged particle. One electron orbits around the outside of the nucleus. Neutrons, which can be found in all other elements, do not exist in the most common form of hydrogen.Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is produced predominantly in plant cells during photosynthesis and photorespiration, and to a lesser extent, in respiration processes.

  • Scuba Diving History
    Scuba diving history Scuba history from a diving bell developed by Guglielmo de Loreno in 1535 up to John Bennett’s dive in the Philippines to amazing 308 meter in 2001 and much more… Humans have been diving since man was required to collect food from the sea. The need for air and protection under water was obvious. Let us find out how mankind conquered the sea in the quest to discover the beauty of the under water world. 1535 – A diving bell was developed by Guglielmo de Loreno. 1650 – Guericke developed the first air pump. 1667 – Robert Boyle observes the decompression sickness or “the bends”. After decompression of a snake he noticed gas bubbles in the eyes of a snake. 1691 – Another diving bell a weighted barrels, connected with an air pipe to the surface, was patented by Edmund Halley. 1715 – John Lethbridge built an underwater cylinder that was supplied via an air pipe from the surface with compressed air. To prevent the water from entering the cylinder, greased leather connections were integrated at the cylinder for the operators arms. 1776 – The first submarine was used for a military attack. 1826 – Charles Anthony and John Deane patented a helmet for fire fighters. This helmet was used for diving too. This first version was not fitted to the diving suit. The helmet was attached to the body of the diver with straps and air was supplied from the surfa 1837 – Augustus Siebe sealed the diving helmet of the Deane brothers’ to a watertight diving suit and became the standard for many dive expeditions.

  • Metabolism Picton, 2019
    History of Science Metabolism Picton, 2019 Metabolism An Experiment on a Bird in the Air Pump Joseph Wright of Derby, 1768 In a previous presentation we followed studies of how the human body works up to the 17th Century. As the Scientific Revolution proceeded the old dogmas such as the humors were cast aside and experiments became the way to understand the processes of life. The painting shows the new scientific approach to understanding life. The scientist removes air from a glass container and shows that the bird can no longer live without air. The painting was based on one of the experiments conducted in by Robert Boyle (1627-1691) and published in 1660. Oxygen in the air is essential to human life. Metabolism is the name given to the chemical reactions that occur in living organisms. It derives from the Greek meta (beyond) and ballein (throw) – it signifies the changes that are effected. It is composed of anabolism (ana, upward) – the production of new compounds – and catabolism (cato, down) – the breakdown of compounds. From the Wikipedia notes on the painting The witnesses display various emotions: one of the girls worriedly watches the fate of the bird, while the other is too upset to observe and is comforted by her father; two gentlemen (one of them dispassionately timing the experiment) and a boy look on with interest, while the young lovers to the left of the painting are absorbed only in each other. The scientist himself looks directly out of the picture, as if challenging the viewer to judge whether the pumping should continue, killing the bird, or whether the air should be replaced and the cockatoo saved.

  • The Development of the Chlorinity-Salinity Concept in Oceanography
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF WILLIAM JOHN WALLACE, JR. for the Ph. D. (Name) (Degree) in GENERAL SCIENCE presented on April 7,1971 (Major) (Date) Title: THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE CHLORINITY-SALINITY CONCEPT INOCEANOGRAM Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Vert J. Moris This study traces the historical foundations of the concept of constant ionic proportionality and the equation (Salinity[S°700] = 1.805 Chlorinity [C1700] + 0.030) which has been in general use in ocean- ography since 1902 until 1969 and which is based upon this constancy, The notion that the constituents present in sea water exist in constant proportions was first clearly stated by Marcet in 1819.The germ of the idea may be found, however, in the worksof Bergmann in the late eighteenth century and implied in other works.Maury, in the mid-nineteenth century, popularized the concept and Forchhammer, in 1865, strengthened this idea by quantifying it and introducing the use of the "coefficient" of chlorine to determine salinity,Although he determined a slightly different value for the coefficient, Dittmar regarded his analysis of the sea water samples from the Challenger expedition as a vindication of Forchhammer's work.Knudsen, Forch and Sorensen, in 1902 gave a lengthy gravimetric definition for salinity based on the analysis of nine water samples.As this proce- dural definition was in practice too time-consuming to perform, the above equation was presented which relates the determination of salinity to that of chlorinity.The work of Knudsen, Forch and Sorensen, and that of Dittmar before them, wasaccepted as demonstrating the constancy of ionic proportionality, and the equation was a cornerstone of chemical oceanographyfrom 1902 to 1958.

COTTON MATHER’S RELATIONSHIP TO SCIENCE by JAMES DANIEL HUDSON Under the Direction of Dr. Reiner Smolinski ABSTRACT The subject of this project is Cotton Mather’s relationship to science. As a minister, Mather’s desire to harmonize science with religion is an excellent medium for understanding the effects of the early Enlightenment upon traditional views of Scripture. Through “Biblia Americana” and The Christian Philosopher, I evaluate Mather’s effort to relate Newtonian science to the six creative days as recorded in Genesis 1. Chapter One evaluates Mather’s support for the scientific theories of Isaac Newton and his reception to natural philosophers who advocate Newton’s theories. Chapter Two highlights Mather’s treatment of the dominant cosmogonies preceding Isaac Newton. The Conclusion returns the reader to Mather’s principal occupation as a minister and the limits of science as informed by his theological mind. Through an exploration of Cotton Mather’s views on science, a more comprehensive understanding of this significant early American and the ideological assumptions shaping his place in American history is realized.

  • Pressure Vs. Volume and Boyle's
    Pressure vs. Volume and Boyle’s Law SCIENTIFIC Boyle’s Law Introduction In 1642 Evangelista Torricelli, who had worked as an assistant to Galileo, conducted a famous experiment demonstrating that the weight of air would support a column of mercury about 30 inches high in an inverted tube. Torricelli’s experiment provided the first measurement of the invisible pressure of air. Robert Boyle, a “skeptical chemist” working in England, was inspired by Torricelli’s experiment to measure the pressure of air when it was compressed or expanded. The results of Boyle’s experiments were published in 1662 and became essentially the first gas law—a mathematical equation describing the relationship between the volume and pressure of air. What is Boyle’s law and how can it be demonstrated? Concepts • Gas properties • Pressure • Boyle’s law • Kinetic-molecular theory Background Open end Robert Boyle built a simple apparatus to measure the relationship between the pressure and volume of air. The apparatus ∆h ∆h = 29.9 in. Hg consisted of a J-shaped glass tube that was Sealed end 1 sealed at one end and open to the atmosphere V2 = /2V1 Trapped air (V1) at the other end. A sample of air was trapped in the sealed end by pouring mercury into Mercury the tube (see Figure 1). In the beginning of (Hg) the experiment, the height of the mercury Figure 1. Figure 2. column was equal in the two sides of the tube. The pressure of the air trapped in the sealed end was equal to that of the surrounding air and equivalent to 29.9 inches (760 mm) of mercury.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-88707-6 - An Introduction to the Chemistry of the Sea: Second Edition Michael E. Q. Pilson Excerpt More information 1 Introduction A complete working model of the earth is still a rather distant goal. HOLLAND 1978 Those magnificent pictures of Earth from space, among the most humanly important and evocative results from the placing of manned and unmanned satellites in orbit during the last several decades, have shown us that underneath the clouds most of the world is blue. Viewed in this way from space, Earth is seen as a planet covered mostly by water, and most of that water is seawater. This thin layer of water, covering 71% of Earth, affects or controls much of its climate and chemistry. The blue color of the sea tells us that most sunlight on the ocean is absorbed and not reflected. The absorption of sunlight warms the planet. The warmth evaporates water, especially from the tropical ocean. Water in the atmosphere is a greenhouse gas, and this also helps to warm Earth. Some atmos- pheric water forms clouds; by reflecting sunlight clouds help to cool Earth. The balance between heating and cooling is always changing as clouds form and dissipate, so exact calculation of the balance is difficult. The water in the ocean is a vast reservoir of heat, which buffers and slows global change. Both the currents in the ocean and the winds in the atmosphere carry heat from low latitudes, where there is a net input, towards the poles, where there is a net loss of heat to space.

  • Measurement of Human Metabolism
    Measurement of Human Metabolism BY ROBERT BRYCHTA, ERICA WOHLERS, JON MOON, AND KONG CHEN besity is one of the most prevalent chronic diseases globally, especially in the United States. While the United States gained an early lead in unneces- sary weight gain, most other countries are quickly closing the gap. The lat- Oest U.S. National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nhanes.htm) documents that about one third of adults in the United States are now overweight [a body-mass index (BMI) between 25 and 30 kg/m2] and another one third (61 million) are considered obese (BMI > 30 kg/m2). Being obese is a strong risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis, some cancers, and depression. The economic impact of this condition is staggering: in 2008, more than 147 billion dollars were spent just in the United States for medical costs related to obesity. Time lost from work and spending on weight loss costs even more. Obesity is influenced to some extent by genetic and environmental fac- tors. However, two centuries of research has repeatedly confirmed that the basic principle of energy balance (Figure 1) governs the accumula- tion of fat. Obesity results from years of slightly higher energy intake from food than energy expended (EE). The path to obesity leads from a positive energy balance of approximately 100–125 kcal per day to between 2 and 6 kg of weight gain per year (Figure 2; [1]). In other words, you can become overweight by eating just one or two cookies or drinking a can of sugar soda a day.
