What reading level is History of Chemistry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Still it was inferred that some similarity must exist between the combining substances. The greater the affinity, the greater the resemblance. With the eighteenth century there came a change in 90 AFFINITY, THE ATOMIC ATTRACTIVE FORCE 91 this belief. Boerhaave sought to show that affinity was also evinced by dissimilar bodies in their tendency to combine. Solution was looked upon as an act of affinity. Boerhaave maintained that the solution of iron in nitric acid was also an act of affinity and... that no relationship existed between the two, but that they were essentially different. His influence as a teacher and the wide dis- tribution of his text-books secured the introduction and general adoption of his views by chemists. Yet physicists opposed the idea of a new force. The term attraction used by Newton was too indefinite and general to displace affinity, which by that time had become fully incorporated into chemical literature, in spite of the recognition that the latter term was based upon a mistaken idea.
