I.—The Atomic Weight of Tungsten

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  06 July 2012

Extract

From the results obtained by Berzelius in his experiments with tungsten, the number 189·28 is calculated as the atomic weight of that metal. Many later investigations have been made, in which uniformly a lower figure was arrived at, in the majority of cases very nearly 184, which has therefore been regarded as the atomic weight.
