...He had already, at an earlier period", asserted, that the chemical power of a current of electricity is in direct proportion to the absolute quantity of electricity which passes ; but the volta-electrometer enabled him to fix with more precision the meaning of this general proposition,... | |

...larger than a small grain of sand. If the conclusion which I have drawn, (377) (that the chemical power is in direct proportion to the absolute quantity of electricity which passes), this ought to be the case." We have, therefore, as it appears upon record, no authenticated case of... | |
