Abstract

In considering the process of the decay of foam layer of sea water, the author has introduced the same quantity “A” as the activation energy in chemical changes. Thus by using “A” he discussed the phenomenon. The quantity “A” increases with increasing concentration of sea water, up to a certain maximum, and then decreases with further increase of concentration. And also he discussed the frequency distribution of the size of bubbles in the foam layer by means of statistical methods. The theoretical values of the frequencies calculated by statistical methods agreed fairly well with those obtained by experiments; thus it appears that it is possible to deal with the phenomenon of foaming by means of statistical methods or mathematical probability.
