B.1 FREQUENCY AND ATOMIC WEIGHTS : Alfred Partheil (1861-1909)
 
One problem that arises in studying the vibrations of substances is that the reference
measurements are in terms of atomic or molecular weight, not as frequency. Dr. Partheil,
professor of pharmacy at Konigsberg, studied the relationship between music and the periodic
table of elements. From 6/ page 201, on The Periodic system and music: "Dr. Partheil made a
most remarkable and interesting discovery, i.e. that of a connection between the harmonic
relationships of the spectral lines of the elements and the wave numbers of the tones of the
musical scale." Partheil discovered that the spectral lines were in proportion to the atomic
weights which established that atomic weight and frequency of tones were equivalent. 
 
From page 203: "The atomic weights of the first and the last elements, hydrogen and
uranium respectively, when multiplied by 16
1.008 * 16 = 16.128
238.5 * 16 = 3816
are indeed almost equal to the vibration numbers of the sub-contra C = 16 and the B 4 = 3840,
respectively. These numbers apply to pure tuning. In this the B is the harmonic 15th. The
divergence of the vibration numbers from the atomic weights multiplied by 16 are less than the
differences between them and the corresponding vibration numbers in the equal temperament. In
the twelve-tone system (A=440, C2=16.5) the vibration number of C2 = 16.165 and of B4 =
3906.168."
 
 
 
Simply stated,  
Frequency = atomic weight * 16
