Faradays engaging literary style combines informative explanations with captivating demonstrations, making complex scientific concepts accessible to all audiences. Published in the 19th century, this book showcases Faradays mastery of both chemistry and public speaking, as he delves into the chemical processes that occur when a candle burns. The books historical context as a series of lectures adds an interactive element to the text, allowing readers to feel as though they are part of the audience witnessing Faradays captivating demonstrations firsthand. Michael Faraday, a renowned scientist and inventor, was inspired to write The Chemical History of a Candle based on his pioneering research in the fields of chemistry and physics. His passion for public education and scientific outreach led him to create these lectures, which have since become a timeless resource for anyone interested in the wonders of science. Faradays groundbreaking discoveries and innovative experiments laid the foundation for modern chemistry and continue to inspire future generations of scientists. I highly recommend The Chemical History of a Candle (Scientific Lectures) to anyone curious about the scientific principles that govern everyday phenomena. Faradays insightful explanations and engaging demonstrations make this book a must-read for both science enthusiasts and casual readers alike, offering a unique blend of education and entertainment.</p>...3187155The Chemical History of a Candle (Scientific Lectures)2525https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-chemical-history-of-a-candle--scientific-lectures--4064066395810/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/3210030/9e0cf6de-41cc-4b7d-8f7d-daab8db664cd.jpg?v=638385034658100000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20204064066395810_W3siaWQiOiI3YThjZGQ3MS0yZDY2LTQ1ZDgtOWExNC1jMDhmYmM1Mjc2N2YiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjM1LCJkaXNjb3VudCI6MCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjozNSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjQtMDUtMDNUMTI6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d4064066395810_<p>The Chemical History of a Candle presents a series of lectures on the chemistry and physics of flames given by Michael Faraday. The lectures described the different zones of combustion in the candle flame and the presence of carbon particles in the luminescent zone. Demonstrations included the production and examination of the properties of hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide gases. An electrolysis cell is demonstrated, first in the electroplating of platinum conductors by dissolved copper, then the production of hydrogen and oxygen gases and their recombination to form water. The properties of water itself are studied, including its expansion while freezing (iron vessels are burst by this expansion), and the relative volume of steam produced when water is vaporized. Techniques for weighing gases on a balance are demonstrated. Atmospheric pressure is described and its effects demonstrated.</p>(*_*)4064066395810_<p>In Michael Faradays The Chemical History of a Candle (Scientific Lectures), readers are taken on a fascinating journey through the scientific principles behind the humble candle.
