Mitscherlich's law
Mitscherlich's law of isomorphism, or the law of isomorphism, is an approximate law suggesting that crystals composed of the same number of similar elements tend to demonstrate isomorphism.Origins
Mitscherlich's law is named for German chemist Eilhard Mitscherlich, who formulated the law and published it between 1819 and 1823.
According to Ferenc Szabadváry, one of the clues that helped Berzelius determine the atomic weights of the elements was "the discovery of Mitscherlich that compounds which contain the same number of atoms and have similar structures, exhibit similar crystal forms."Law of physiological relations
Eihard's son, Alexander Mitscherlich studied crop yields in 1909 and articulated a "law of physiological relations". It was compared to the law of diminishing returns in 1942, when Liebig's law of the minimum and the limiting factors of Frederick Blackman were also noted:
The relation was reviewed by Hans Schneeberger in 2009.
