| Abstract: |
The document titled "Centenary Workshop on the Bifurcation of Acidity - Protonism vs. Electronism" discusses a workshop that took place in Coburg, Germany, organized by Klaus Ruthenberg. The workshop focused on the history and philosophy of chemistry, specifically the debate between the protonist and electronist positions regarding acidity. The workshop featured contributions from various scholars, including Hasok Chang and Eric Scerri, who supported the electronistic position. Other topics discussed included the sensory background of the notion of acid, the nature of acids as natural kinds, and the development of acid-base concepts and redox chemistry. The workshop aimed to continue the research on acidity and foster collaboration among scholars in the field. [Extracted from the article] |
