Color Me Annoyed
"John Smith" wrote I read it that he was inferring that the average reader is not discriminating enough to realize it is the smaller molecule that would leak out, hence his reference to more N being in the tube than O. I guess that only proves that sometimes two people can read the same thing and come away with different conclusions. Of course, my conclusion is the correct conclusion! g -- Jim in NC |

That means it must be true, right? Silly me. Too bad you musta flunked high school chemistry. N2 is a bigger molecule than O2.You sure about that? Ah, no. N2 = 2X 14 = 28 and O2 = 2 X 16 = 30. It ain't by much but O2 has the larger molecule, but by a very small margin. One small enough to be almost insignificant. .. Jut do a search based on "The size of a nitrogen molecule compared to Oxygen" and you will get a whole bunch of pages debunking the N2 in tires claim. It leaks more slowly. It is common knowledge, among those that have open minds. Roger Halstead (K8RI & ARRL life member) (N833R, S# CD-2 Worlds oldest Debonair) www.rogerhalstead.com |
