Some scattered brownspots throughout. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of this milestone paper in organic chemistry in which Gay-Lussac describes the preparation the chemical reactions and the determination of the physical properties of prussic acid."One of the most importent contributions of Gay-Lussac was his work on hydro-cyanid acid and its compounds. In the course of his investigations on the combining volumes of gases he had prepared gaseous hydrogen cyanide. This led him to the study of related compounds and in 1815 he published a paper "Recherches sur l'acide prussique" the paper offered wherein he announced the discovery of cyanogen and chlor-cyanogen and the composition of hydrocyanic acid. His demonstartion that hydrogen cyanide contains no oxygen added another oxygen-free acid to those already known hydrogen halides and sulfide and contributed to the overthrow of Lavoisier's oxygen theory of acids. Gay-Lussac found that the cyano radicalthe first orgianic radical clearly recognized could act as an element analogous to chlorine passing unchanged through various reactions. This concept of an organic radical was importent to organic chemistry."Leicester & Klickstein "A Source Book of Chemistry" p. 293. - Partington IV p.85 a. p. 253. - Roy G.

This voyage together with the voyage in the same year with Biot is the first ascents with a scientific purpose."Gay-Lussac made an ascent in a hydrogen ballon with Biot on 24 August 1804. The primary object of the ascent was to see whether the magnetic intensity at theearth's surface decreased with an increase in altitude. The concluded that it was constant up to 4000 meters. They also carried long wires to test the electricity of different parts of the atmosphere. Another object was to collect a sample of air from a high altitude to compare its composition with that of air at ground level. Gay-Lussac made a second ascent on 16. September 1804 the paper offered but this time by himself in order to lessen the weight of the balloon and thus reach a greater high.He was able to repeat observations of pressure temperature and humidity and also make magnetic measurements. He had taken two evacuated flasks which he opened to collect samples of air when he had attained an altitude of over 6000 meters. His subsequent analysiss of these samples showed that the portion of oxygen was identical with that in ordinary air.

First on the nature of the metals of the fixed alkalis. Second on the nature of Hydrogen and composition of ammonia. Thirdly on the metals of the earth; and Fourthly he makes a comparison between the antiphlogistic doctrine and a modified phlogistic hypothesis."Abstract. He further gives arguments for considering potassium and sodium which he discovered in 1808 as a element.""Gay-Lussac had a slight rivalry between himself and the creation scientist Sir Humphry Davy. Davy was chemically preparing Potassium and Sodium through an electrical current and this made Gay-Lussac and Thénard envious of his success. They too decided to perform the same task but they had no battery at their disposal as Davy had so they had to form another way to chemically prepare the two elements. In 1808 they used a red-hot iron fused to potash the water-soluble form of a manufactured salt containing potassium to perform this task a method that Davy admitted had its advantageous qualities. Gay-Lussac and Thénard were successful in preparing Potassium and continued to make a full analysis of its chemical properties and began to use it for their own experiments. In 1809 Davy performed the same task using it to reduce Boron in Boracic acid." </em> unknown

The three part paper offered here established “the relationship between electric current-flow and magnetism and established the new science of electrodynamics.†Norman <br /> <br /> “In a four page circular dated Copenhagen July 21st 1820 H.C. Orsted communicated his great discovery that a closed voltaic circuit exerts forces on an adjacent magnetic needle. In more modern language: a current-carrying electric circuit gives rise to magnetic forces in its surroundings. Orsted had found the long sought affinity between electricity and magnetism. The letter reached Arago … who at the next meeting of Academie des Sciences on Sept. 11th 1820 with Ampere in attendance presented the letter and Orsted's experiment. It was indeed a memorable meeting. Already at the next weekly meeting on Sept. 18th Ampere delivered an explanation of Orsted's experiment and supported it with new experiments of his own. At every weekly meeting in the following months Ampere produced new results.†Ekelof<br /> <br /> 'In this first paper Sept. 18 he explains the law determining the position of the magnetic needle in relation to the electric current and he also makes known his intended experiments with spiral of helical wires which he predicts will acquire and retain the properties of magnets so long as the electrical current flows through them He constructed his spirals and helices and to the astonishment of all he produced magnets formed only of spools of copper wire traversed by electric currents.' Mottelay<br /> <br /> The Honeyman sale #82 notes that the paper offered here is "The first appearance of the first of a series of important papers reporting Ampere's discoveries on the electric current." Honeyman also had #83 the first separate appearance of these journal articles published as "Memoires sur l'Action mutuelle de deux courans electriques." which we believe had additional information not present in this journal appearance and hence is not a traditional "offprint" but a later state of the work. Norman notes that Ampere developed the science of electrodynamics over the next seven years publishing in a "bewildering array of journal articles offprints and revisions of earlier works.further noting some 'reprints' of Ampere's articles appear in as many as five different versions."<br /> <br /> This is an opportunity to own the original first printed appearance of Ampere's fundamentally important work in Electrodynamics. It would be an interesting collection to build the variations of Ampere's work over those seven years to see how his thought evolved. As far as we are aware there is no standard bibliographic reference for Ampere's work.<br /> <br /> LITERATURE<br /> Dibner Heralds of Science 62 first separate edition<br /> Honeyman Sale 82 original journal appearance<br /> Mottelay Bibliographical History of Electricity and Magnetism p. 472<br /> Norman 43 first separate edition. <br /> Ekelof Catalogue of Books and Papers in Electricity and Magnetism pp 284-286<br /> Sparrow Milestones of Science p33 first separate edition.
