In a letter to the gallery Lowry wrote, "It gives me great pleasure that Salford have bought this picture for I have always thought it was my most characteristic mill scene." With the opening of The Lowry at Salford Quays , Coming from the Mill – along with the gallery's entire collection of Lowry works – was transferred to the new art centre.
The essence of Brønsted–Lowry theory is that an acid is only such in relation to a base, and vice versa. Water is amphoteric as it can act as an acid or as a base. In the image shown at the right one molecule of H 2 O acts as a base and gains H + to become H 3 O + while the other acts as an acid and loses H + to become OH − .
Johannes Nicolaus Brønsted (Danish: [joˈhænˀəs ne̝koˈlɛːus ˈpʁɶnsteð]; 22 February 1879 – 17 December 1947) was a Danish physical chemist who is best known for developing the Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory; he developed the theory at the same time as (but independently of) Martin Lowry. [1]
Industrial Landscape is the title given to each of a series of oil paintings by the English artist L. S. Lowry, painted over a number of years between 1934 and 1955.. Each picture is in the form of a landscape painting, in which the traditional elements of natural beauty have been supplanted with factories, chimneys, bridges and other elements of an industrial city environment.
In chemistry, an acid–base reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs between an acid and a base.It can be used to determine pH via titration.Several theoretical frameworks provide alternative conceptions of the reaction mechanisms and their application in solving related problems; these are called the acid–base theories, for example, Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory.
Going to Work is a 1943 oil painting by the English artist L. S. Lowry.. Originally commissioned as a piece of war art by the War Artists Advisory Committee, it depicts crowds of workers walking into the Mather & Platt engineering equipment factory in Manchester, north-west England.
Thomas Martin Lowry CBE FRS [1] (/ ˈ l aʊ r i /; 26 October 1874 – 2 November 1936) was an English physical chemist who developed the Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory simultaneously with and independently of Johannes Nicolaus Brønsted and was a founder-member and president (1928–1930) of the Faraday Society.
Grimshaw exhibited widely in the UK (including at the Royal Scottish Academy and the Royal Academy in the 1970s) and in the US and Germany. His work was included in the private collections of L.S. Lowry, Edward Heath (two drawings purchased in 1973), [2] the Warburton (Bread) Family and Gerald Kaufman MP., [3] and he is represented in a number of public collections, including The Tate Gallery ...
