S = number of streams including utilities (points in graph theory)... 

Avogadro s number, L The number of particles (atoms or molecules) in one mole of any pure substance. L = 6 023 x 10. It has been determined by many methods including measurements of Brownian movement, electronic charge and the counting of a-particles. 

Boltzmann constanty k A fundamental constant. It is the gas constant per molecule, equal to R divided by Avogadro s number L. 

Brownian movement The rapid and random movement of particles of a colloidal sol, observed brightly lit against a dark ground. First observed with a pollen suspension. The Brownian movement is due to the impact on the dispersed particles of the molecules of the dispersion medium. As the particles increase in size, the probability of unequal bombardment from different sides decreases, and eventually collisions from all sides cancel out and the Brownian movement becomes imperceptible at a particle size of about 3-4/z. From the characteristics of the movement, Perrin calculated Avogadro s number L. 

Benjamin Franklin s experiment is mentioned in the opening paragraphs of this chapter. Estimate, from his results, an approximate value for Avogadro s number make your calculation clear. The answer is a little off explain whether more accurate measurements on Franklin s part would have helped.

Number of moles of A,B in the sample = N7Av, where Av = Avagadro s number. 

Multiplying and dividing the right-hand side of this expression by N converts the Nj s to mole fractions, and, if N is taken to be N, Avogadro s number, kN becomes R. Accordingly, we write for 1 mol of mixture... 

Multiplying and dividing the right-hand side by Ni -t- N2 and letting this sum equal Avogadro s number of molecules gives per mole of solution ... 

We can shift from numbers of molecules to numbers of moles of solute by dividing by Avogadro s number and changing k to R. Also, recalling that V = SjnjVj, we write... 

We divide by Avogadro s number to convert the partial molar Gibbs free energy to a molecular quantity, and the minus sign enters because the force and the gradient are in opposing directions. Recalling the definition of chemical potential [Eq. (8.13)], we write jUj + RT In aj = ii2 + RT In 7jC, where aj... 

An important historic application of this relationship was the determination of Avogadro s number from measurements of light scattered by the atmosphere (see Problem 3). 

Prepare a log-log plot of rx versus X and evaluate the slope as a test of the Rayleigh theory applied to air. The factor M/pN in Eq. (10.36) becomes 6.55 X 10 /No, where Nq is the number of gas molecules per cubic centimeter at STP and the numerical factor is the thickness of the atmosphere corrected to STP conditions. Use a selection of the above data to determine several estimates of Nq, and from the average, calculate Avogadro s number. The average value of n - 1 is 2.97 X 10" over the range of wavelengths which are most useful for the evaluation of N. ... 

The case of vibrational numbering in, say, fluorobenzene illustrates the point that we must be flexible when it may be helpful. Many of fhe vibrations of fluorobenzene sfrongly resemble fhose of benzene. In 1934, before fhe Mulliken recommendations of 1955, E. B. Wilson had devised a numbering scheme for fhe 30 vibrations of benzene. This was so well esfablished by 1955 fhaf ifs use has fended to continue ever since. In fluorobenzene fhere is fhe further complication fhaf, alfhough Mulliken s system provides if wifh ifs own numbering scheme, if is useful very often to use fhe same number for a benzene-like vibration as used for benzene ifself - for which fhere is a choice of Mulliken s or Wilson s numbering Clearly, nof all problems of conventions have been solved, and some are nof really soluble, buf we should all fry to make if clear to any reader jusf whaf choice we have made.
