The conclusions drawn from these experiments are — 1st, That whenever water vapour condenses in the atmosphere it always does so on some solid nucleus ; 2d, that dust-particles in the air form the nuclei on which the vapour condenses ; 3d, that if there... | |

...particle, but remain uncondensed. From a series of experiments, the conclusions drawn were— 1. That whenever water vapour condenses in the atmosphere, it always does so on some solid nucleus. 2. That if there were no dust there would be no fogs, no clouds, no mist, and probably no rain, and... | |
