Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Experimental and Theoretical Applications of Thermodynamics to Chemistry
The study of the results thus far obtained in this field makes it appear probable that there prevails here more conformity to general laws than the two laws of thermodynamics would lead us to expect. To explain these regularities I have developed a new theorem which seems to reveal new truths concerning, the relation between chemical energy and heat. It can hardly be doubted that this theorem will prove useful in the treatment of questions other than purely chemical, but in the following Lectures I have not entered into this phase of the subject.
