It was thought that caloric could be "sensible" in that it diffused among the particles of the material it was acting upon thereby surrounding each particle with an atmosphere of caloric.
Caloric was also thought of as a weightless gas that could pass in and out of pores in solids and liquids.
The "caloric theory" was abandoned by the mid-19th century in favor of the theory of heat.
The caloric theory of heat is an obsolete scientific theory in thermodynamics, developed mostly during the 18th and 19th centuries.
However, one of the greatest confirmations of the caloric theory was Pierre-Simon Laplace's theoretical correction of Sir Isaac Newton’s pulse equation.
In this way, the caloric theory was absorbed into the annals of physics, to be replaced by modern thermodynamics, in which heat is the kinetic energy of molecules.
