The Nature of the Chemical Blog

In 1939 Linus Pauling published one of the most important textbooks in the field of chemistry, "The Nature of the Chemical Bond". The work represented in the textbook led to Pauling's reception of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1954. While I have no delusions that this blog will, at some future date, win me the Nobel Prize, I do hope to share interesting ideas, cool chemistry, and my molecular musings in The Nature of the Chemical Blog.

Happy Birthday Amedeo Avogadro

Amedeo Avogadro, born August 9, 1776, was an Italian chemist known for his work on the theory of molarity and molecular weight.  While he didn’t discover the number of particles in one mole of a substance, 6.022×1023, is now know as Avogadro’s number.
