Avogadro's hypothesis (as it was known originally) was formulated in the same spirit of earlier empirical gas laws like Boyle's law (1662), Charles's law (1787) and Gay-Lussac's law (1808).
Amedeo Avogadro (1776-1856) was an Italian chemist, most noted for his contributions to the theory of molarity and molecular mass. Avogadro's law implies that the relationship occurring between the weights of same volumes of different gases (at the same temperature and pressure ) corresponds to the relationship between respective molecular weights.
Amedeo Avogadro, physicist and namesake of Avogadro's law, appointed professor; Carbo Sebastiano Berardi, former prefect of the Faculty of Law and scholar; Norberto Bobbio, philosopher of law, lecturer and professor; Elsa Fornero, politician, lectured economics; Carlo Franzinetti, chair of particle physics from 1966 to 1980
Avogadro is an Italian surname, derived from avogaro, a Venetian term for a diocese official (equivalent to avvocato, advocatus, "advocate"). In 1389, bishop Nicolò Beruti, made the office of avogaro hereditary, and a number of noble families with the name Avogaro or Avogadro developed over the following centuries, in Brescia, Vercelli and ...
Millikan in 1891. Robert Andrews Millikan was born on March 22, 1868, in Morrison, Illinois. [6] He went to high school in Maquoketa, Iowa and received a bachelor's degree in the classics from Oberlin College in 1891 and his doctorate in physics from Columbia University in 1895 [11] – he was the first to earn a Ph.D. from that department.
