...instruments. By carrying out this calculation further, it would appear that 800,000 such charges of the Leyden battery would be necessary to supply electricity sufficient to decompose a single grain of water ; a quantity which would be equal to a very powerful flash of lightning ; but which, in an infinitely... | |
