By comparing reaction cells sealed from the same manifold temperature dependency corresponding to activation energies ranging from 11 to 18 Af was observed while dependence on the first power of the light intensity seemed to be indicated in most cases.

For a chemical process the first of these might involve the concentrations of the different chemical species, and the temperature or pressure of the stream.

One of the first to discuss the possibility of an absolute minimal temperature was Robert Boyle.

Much of the ACC transport is carried in this front, which is defined as the latitude at which a subsurface salinity minimum or a thick layer of unstratified Subantarctic Mode Water first appears, allowed by temperature dominating density stratification.

It is the first time the United Kingdom has recorded a temperature over.

Celsius was the first to perform and publish careful experiments aiming at the definition of an international temperature scale on scientific grounds.

In 1911, just three years after helium was first liquified, Onnes working at University of Leiden discovered superconductivity in mercury, when he observed the electrical resistivity in mercury to vanish when the temperature was lowered below a certain value.

The formula that yields this temperature is based on the first law of thermodynamics and takes note of the fact that the heat of combustion is used entirely for heating the fuel, the combustion air or oxygen, and the combustion product gases ( commonly referred to as the flue gas ).

This means that they were at first fragmental rocks like limestone, shale and sandstone and have never been in a molten condition nor entirely in solution, but the high temperature and pressure conditions of metamorphism have acted on them by erasing their original structures and inducing recrystallization in the solid state.

Scottish physician and scientist Joseph Black, who was the first to recognize the distinction between heat and temperature, is said to be the founder of calorimetry.

For a given material, it can have a positive or negative sign or exceptionally it can be zero, and this can depend on the temperature, as it does for water about 4 C. The concept of latent heat with respect to volume was perhaps first recognized by Joseph Black in 1762.

In 1893 he described a " slow-combustion engine " that first compressed air thereby raising its temperature above the igniting-point of the fuel, then gradually introducing fuel while letting the mixture expand " against resistance sufficiently to prevent an essential increase of temperature and pressure ", then cutting off fuel and " expanding without transfer of heat ".

Viscosity increase due to temperature occurs very slowly at first.

The first freezing temperature tends to occur around October 31, with the last around April 4, with the first or greater snowfall occurring around early December.

Operation at room temperature enabled the first practical display device to be made.

The gram was first introduced in 1795, with a definition based on the density of water ( so that at the temperature of melting ice, one cubic centimeter of water would have a mass of one gram ; while the meter at the time was defined as the 10, 000, 000th part of the distance from the Earth's equator to the North Pole ).

Angiosperms radiated sometime in the early Cretaceous, first in the tropics, but the even temperature gradient allowed them to spread toward the poles throughout the period.

Rømer also developed one of the first temperature scales.

Robert Boyle ( 1627-1691 ): formulated Boyle's law, which describes the inversely proportional relationship between the absolute pressure and volume of a gas ( if the temperature is kept constant within a closed system ), wrote The Sceptical Chymist ( seen as cornerstone book in the field of chemistry ), regarded as the first modern chemist, one of the founders of modern chemistry
