...on the problem of chemical affinity. If large masses of matter attract one another proportional to the product of their masses and inversely as the square of the distance, why might not the attraction between atoms follow the same law ? In a word, why might not... | |

...Universal Gravitation is as follows : ] Two particles attract each other with a force which varies v directly as the product of their masses and inversely as the square of the distance between them. This law was discovered by Sir Isaac Newton in 1666, but, on account of an erroneous value of the diameter... | |
