Summary of The London Edinburgh and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science Vol 25 by David Brewster PDF
Excerpt from The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin, Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science, Vol. 25: New and United Series of the Philosophical Magazine, Annals of Philosophy, and Journal of Science; July-December, 1844 Chlorine gas, which has been exposed to the daylight or to sunshine, possesses qualities which are not possessed by chlorine which has been made in the dark. This is shown by the circumstance, that chlorine which has been exposed to the sunshine has obtained from that exposure the property of speedily uniting with hydrogen gas; a property not possessed by chlorine which has been made and kept in the dark. This quality gained by the chlorine arises from its having absorbed tithonic rays corresponding in refrangibility to the indigo. It is not a transient, but apparently a permanent property, the rays so absorbed becoming latent, and the effect lasting for an unknown period of time. The facts which I shall proceed to describe will be interesting to chemists, because they plainly lead us to suspect that the descriptions we have of the properties of all elementary and compound bodies are either inaccurate or confused. These properties are such as bodies exhibit after they have been exposed to the light; we still require to know what are the properties they possess before exposure to such influences. Natural philosophers will also find an interest in these phenomena, for they finally establish for the tithonic rays two important facts, - 1st, that those rays are absorbed by ponderable bodies; and 2nd, that they become latent after the manner of heat.
