With de Waele, this scientist described an early model of a power-law fluid, and he lends his name to a rule which states that in a polymorphic mineral, the least stable polymorph crystallizes first.
With de Waele, this scientist described an early model of a power-law fluid, and he lends his name to a rule which states that in a polymorphic mineral, the least stable polymorph crystallizes first. He invented a type of viscometer which has a U-shaped tube with two bulbs, and this man gives his name to a process that is responsible for the growth of phenocrysts below the solidus temperature and the growth of cloudy microemulsions. That process, in general, sees larger precipitates siphon materials from a smaller one, and is known as his namesake ripening. His namesake law of dilution is used to find the electrical conductivity of an electrolyte solution, but he's most famous for a process performed in tandem with the Haber-Bosch process in which ammonia is oxidized. For 10 points, name this German chemist whose namesake process creates nitric acid.
