To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
and E. JPhil. Mag, vol. xix. p. 196), which Electricians in this country will probably be inclined to adopt in preference to that given by the learned German, who is one of the most powerful and strenuous sup- porters of the Contact Theory of Galvanism. It is 8imply,-T-that copper, when immersed in an acidulated solution, does not retain so clean a metallic surface as iron does, when exposed to a like action. When a copper-zinc pair is placed in dilute sulphuric acid, an action takes place upon... both the metals, and the balance of their affinities for the acid determines the direction of intensity of the electric cur- rent : but an obstacle to its fi'ee circulation arises by the resistance offered to its passage from the acid into the copper, because this metal has in a measure been acted upon by the acid, and its surface partially oxidated : but as the affinity of the base for the acid, under these circumstances, is not sufficient to cause the solution of the oxide, it therefore remains upon the surface of the copper-plate ; and as oxides are worse conductors of Electricity than their metallic bases, we have here a resistance presented by the oxidated surface to the entrance of the electric current into the copper plate.
