What reading level is A History of Chemistry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The brief vacations which he allowed himself were spent most!}' in the Lake District where it was his favorite occupation to climb mountains with such instru- ments as he could carry, in order to compare atmospheric condi- tions at different altitudes. All this led naturally to an interest in gases and a study of their properties in the laboratory. In the first year of the nineteenth century we find him reading a paper before the Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society in which he announc...es the discovery of some of the most im- portant laws concerning gases. Among these were the law that gases expand equallj' for a given rise of temperature, that the vapor pressures of liquids are the same at equal intervals of temperature above and below their boiling points, that at con- stant volume each gas in a mixture exerts the same pressure as if the other gases were absent, and consequently, that the solu- bihties of mixed gases are proportional to their partial pressures.
Dalton had also observed that the composition of the atmosphere was independent of the altitude, and he had shown that this was not due simply to mechanical agitation, by experiments in which heavy gases diffused upward into lighter ones, while the latter diffused downward, even through very narrow tubes.
