Arnold Sommerfeld (1868-1951), a German theoretical physicist, requests that Georg Bredig (1868-1944) write an article on physical chemistry for a forthcoming mathematical physics encyclopedia. The article was delayed by the untimely passing of its intended author, Jacobus van't Hoff (1852-1911), one of the founders of modern physical chemistry.
