Stoichiometry, in chemistry, the determination of the proportions in which elements or compounds react with one another.
Weighing and measuring became crucially important, convincing me of the fixed proportions in which elements combined, drawing me to atomic theory and the concept of atomic weights.
Vertov's film is a classic example of what has been termed the "city symphony" form, in which elements of urban life are montaged impressionistically.
But among the personal detritus are signs of his "process" in which elements of his life – often the difficult elements – were woven and restrung in fiction.

When the chemical elements are thus arranged, there is a recurring pattern called the "periodic law" in their properties, in which elements in the same column (group) have similar properties.
