Now the most startling result of Faraday's law is perhaps this. If we accept the hypothesis that the elementary substances are composed of atoms, we cannot avoid concluding that electricity also, positive as well as negative, is divided into definite...

...units of affinity at both electrodes. The Faraday Lecturer, however, goes further, and argues that if we accept the hypothesis that elementary substances are composed of atoms, we cannot avoid the conclusion that electricity also, both positive and negative, is divided into elementary portions,... | |

...Helmholtz stated the logical inference from the law very clearly in his Faraday lecture in 1881. He said, "If we accept the hypothesis that elementary substances are composed of atoms, we cannot avoid the conclusion that electricity, positive as well as Fie. 3.
