Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ...acid lack the property.1 This characteristic of carbonic acid is of the utmost significance, first by regulating one of the most fundamental of physicochemical conditions, and secondly by preserving throughout nature the characteristic chemical inactivity of water, which disappears whenever the reaction becomes either appreciably acid or appreciably alkaline. Almost the only case of important geological action due to acidity or alkalinity of water is the action of fresh water, containing carbonic acid itself, to weather the rocks. This process is, however, self-limited, for the dissolved material forms bicarbonates, and thus at once provides permanently inactive balanced solutions. It is impossible to understand the efficiency with which neutrality is preserved by carbonic acid, without the actual discussion of a particular case. Let us therefore consider a solution of 1 kilogram of carbon dioxide in 100 liters of water, to which sodium hydrate is being added. At the beginning of the experiment the hydrogen ion concentration will be approximately 0.0001 N, almost exactly one thousand times that at neutrality, and the hydroxyl ion concentration 0.0000000001 N, one one-thousandth that at neutrality. If, now, the sodium hydrate be added to the solution in successive portions, the change of reaction will be as indicated in the following table: --1 Henderson, "The Relation between the Strengths of Acids and their Capacity to Preserve Neutrality," American Journal of Physiology, XXI, 173, 1908. From the table it appears that the first 50 grams of alkali reduce the hydrogen ion concentration to but 50 times that of neutral solutions, and 200 grams of alkali have made it only about 10 times that of pure water, in spite of the fact that...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fitness of the Environment: An Inquiry Into the Biological Significance of the Properties of Matter As civilization has progressed, these early hypotheses have received endless criticism, and their definition has been continually sharpened. Meantime natural science has sought and provided ever more accurate accounts of the phenomena which first sug gested them to man, and of countless other forms and transformations of matter and energy, and the discovery of laws of nature has steadily changed once quite mysterious order and purpose into the plainest of neces sary results.

This book was released on 2013-04-12 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States is among the wealthiest nations in the world, but it is far from the healthiest. Although life expectancy and survival rates in the United States have improved dramatically over the past century, Americans live shorter lives and experience more injuries and illnesses than people in other high-income countries. The U.S. health disadvantage cannot be attributed solely to the adverse health status of racial or ethnic minorities or poor people: even highly advantaged Americans are in worse health than their counterparts in other, "peer" countries. In light of the new and growing evidence about the U.S. health disadvantage, the National Institutes of Health asked the National Research Council (NRC) and the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to convene a panel of experts to study the issue. The Panel on Understanding Cross-National Health Differences Among High-Income Countries examined whether the U.S. health disadvantage exists across the life span, considered potential explanations, and assessed the larger implications of the findings. U.S. Health in International Perspective presents detailed evidence on the issue, explores the possible explanations for the shorter and less healthy lives of Americans than those of people in comparable countries, and recommends actions by both government and nongovernment agencies and organizations to address the U.S. health disadvantage.
