 Jan Josef Loschmidt (1821-1895)
Loschmidt Number, N, is defined as the number of atoms in a gram-atom or the number of molecules in a gram-molecule.
The first actual estimate of the number of molecules in one cubic centimetre of a gas under standard conditions was made in 1865 by Loschmidt, and from this the number of molecules (atoms) in a gram molecule (atom) was later evaluated.
From the quantitative view-point it thus seems preferable to speak of "Loschmidt's number per gram-molecule (atom)," and of "Loschmidt's number per cubic centimetre," as is almost invariably done in the German scientific literature.

The actual numerical value of Avogadro's number was first calculated by Johann Josef Loschmidt, a professor at the University of Vienna in 1865.
In many countries where German is the dominant language, Avogadro's number is sometimes refered to as Loschmidt's number.
Avogadro's number corresponds to the number of atoms or molecules needed to make up a mass that is equal to the substance's atomic weight in grams.

 Avogadro's Hypothesis
As a result, Avogadro's Number is called Loschmidt's Number in German speaking countries.
Johann Josef Loschmidt (1821-1895) devised a method to determine the diameter of a gas molecule from the density of the liquified gas and and the mean free path of a molecule in the gaseous phase.
To determine Avogadro's Number, it is first necessary to deterrmine the characteristic size and mass of a molecule.

 Timeline 1821-1830
What we call "Avogadro's number" is, in German-speaking countries, called "Loschmidt's number."
1821 Mar 15, Josef Loschmidt (d.1895), a pioneer of 19th-century physics and chemistry, was born in Putschim (Pocerny), Bohemia.
In his first publication (1861) Loschmidt proposed the first structural chemical formulae for many important molecules, introducing markings for double and triple carbon bonds.

 Physics Today March 2001
An immediate consequence of Loschmidt's calculation of the diameter of a molecule was a reasonably good estimate of molecular mass and the number of molecules per unit volume of a gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP).
The main sources of error in Loschmidt's estimate of the molecular diameter were errors in the measurements of the mean free path and in the estimate of the density of liquid air.
Moving to Vienna at the age of 20, Loschmidt was attracted by the lectures in chemistry and physics at the Polytechnic Institute and the university.

 LOSCHMIDT'S NUMBER
LOSCHMIDT's number, N, is defined as the number of atoms in a gram-atom or the number of molecules in a gram-molecule.
It seems probable that the most exact value of Loschmidt's number is to be obtained by some method which does not depend on the measurement of a fluctuating quantity, the individual values of which are distributed purely by chance.
The first actual estimate of the number of molecules in one cubic centimetre of a gas under standard conditions was made in 1865 by Loschmidt, and from this the number of molecules (atoms) in a gram molecule (atom) was later evaluated.

An immediate consequence of Loschmidt's calculation of the diameter of a molecule was a reasonably good estimate of molecular mass and of the number of molecules per unit volume of a gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP).
Loschmidt arrived at a size somewhat less than 10^(-7) centimeters for the diameter of the molecules in air, which is close to the accepted value of 0.3 x 10^(-7).
Loschmidt anticipated the ring structure of benzene, so that some historians claim that the assertion of Friedrich Kekule (1829- 1896) that idea of the benzene ring came to him in a dream is probably fallacious, since Kekule most likely read Loschmidt's published paper on benzene and benzene derivatives.

1865: Johann Loschmidt calculates the number of molecules of gas in a cubic centimeter of air, obtaining a figure about 30 times smaller than modern estimates.
This paper solves all classical problems of electric and magnetic phenomena in four equations; in doing this, it also predicts the existence of radio waves.
1879: Josef Stefan becomes the first person following experiments by John Tyndall, to identify the relationship between the rate at which an object radiates evergy and its temperature - a relationship which becomes known as the Stefan-Boltzmann Law.

This estimate was made by the Austrian physicist and chemist Johann Josef Loschmidt, who used a value for the collision cross-section of molecules.
It was not until 1865 that an estimate was made of the number of molecules in a gas volume.
Improvements in the theory of gas kinetics, and better measurements, increased the accuracy through to the end of the nineteenth century.
