To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Mme. Curie subjected a number of glasses of known, but widely different composition, to the action of the radium radiations, and concluded that the coloration was due to the presence of the alkali metal in the glass. Salts of the alkali metals themselves showed more vivid coloration, and a greater variety of colors than the different glasses that were studied by Mme. Curie. 94 THE ELECTRICAL NATURE OF MATTER The most probable theory as to the cause of the coloration in glass is that the radiati...ons from radium liberate the alkali metals, which then form a solid solution in the glass. Radium transforms oxygen into ozone, which can be detected by its odor. This is due to the a and ft rays, since, when these are cut off, no ozone is produced. To understand what this transformation really means, we must ask the question, what is the real difference between oxygen and ozone? The older text-books on chemistry state that the difference in the properties of oxygen and ozone is to be referred to the fact that oxygen contains two atoms in the molecule, and ozone three.
