摘要

在这篇文章中，我展示了一个人对质量项所采用的语义限制了一个人可以对混合物做出的形而上学声明。我首先揭示了为什么混合物挑战了基于表面论和的奇点方法。在讨论了另一种非奇点方法后，我将化学考虑在内，并解释了它如何改变我们对这些问题的看法。

Mixtures and Mass Terms

In this article, I show that the semantics one adopts for mass terms constrains the metaphysical claims one can make about mixtures. I first expose why mixtures challenge a singularist approach based on mereological sums. After discussing an alternative, non-singularist approach, I take chemistry into account and explain how it changes our perspective on these issues.
