The journal abbreviations used are those employed by Chemical Abstracts. Unless otherwise noted, all temperature values are expressed in centigrade units. [Pg.8]

In place of the familiar Fahrenheit and Celsius (centigrade) units of temperature, the study of gases uses the Kelvin temperature scale, which is based on the idea of absolute zero. The theory is that there is a temperature, called absolute zero (0 K), at which all movement stops. Scientific experimentation has come very close to achieving absolute zero (within thousandths of a degree), but some scientists believe that absolute zero itself is unattainable. [Pg.70]
