Excerpt from The Physical Properties of Gases
In the following pages it is sought to give a general view of the physical properties of gases, developing as fully as the circumstances admit the reasoning by which physicists have been led, from the properties of gases as they are discovered by experiment, to the present conception of their nature. It is thus hoped to meet the wants of many who, lacking the time for a more thorough study of the subject, wish to know something of modern views and the basis on which they rest.
The general arrangement that has been adopted is to treat first the properties which belong to gases considered as fluid masses, and then to take up those which depend on their molecular structure, reviewing finally the evidence for the kinetic theory.
