Elements and compounds
Early philosophers believed that all matter was composed of four fundamental elements: earth, air, fire, and water. However, experiments in the 17th century could not reconcile observed facts with such a small set of elements. Robert Boyle's 1661 publication The Sceptical Chymist argued that the true nature of elements should be discovered through experimentation. Antoine Lavoisier defined an element as a substance that cannot be decomposed into other substances in his 1789 textbook Traité Élémentaire de Chimie, listing 31 simple substances as elements, most of which are still considered elements today.

Chemist in history
Amedeo Avogadro was an Italian scientist best known for his hypothesis that equal volumes of different gases contain an equal number of molecules, provided they are at the same temperature and pressure. This hypothesis, which became known as Avogadro's law, was rejected by other scientists during his lifetime but gained acceptance after his death. Avogadro was also the first scientist to propose that elements can exist as discrete molecules rather than individual atoms. His contributions helped lay the foundations of modern atomic and molecular theory.

ee laws are thought to have originated with Aristotle, who believed that the laws are necessary conditions for rational thinking to occur
Science and advances in chemistry
The great advances made in Chemistry began with the discovery of fire. With the fire, the man was able to cook their food and got a heat source to heat and protect from wildlife. The kitchen was then the first chemical laboratory, as it were preserved food through cooking. Later, Alchemy emerged that spread in different civilizations, as among the Chinese, Hindus, Egyptians, Arabs and Europeans and among his ideals unattainable the philosopher's stone and the elixir of long life. Robert Boyle is considered by some the father of Chemistry, being responsible for transforming Alchemy in Chemistry, as he introduced the "scientific method". The Lavoisier's ideas gave the chemical the first solid understanding of the nature of chemical reactions. Several advances have created many distinct branches in chemistry, including biochemistry, nuclear chemistry, chemical engineering and organic chemistry. Chemistry achieved scientific status only in the mid-eighteenth century that was previously treated as a branch of Medicine. With the advent of the Industrial Revolution came a demand for professionals in the chemical area, making possible the creation of the first courses and Chemical Societies in Europe and the United States.
John dalton
John Dalton was an English chemist and physicist born in 1766 who developed atomic theory. He proposed that all matter is composed of small indivisible particles called atoms and that different atoms have differing weights and properties. Dalton determined the relative weights of atoms by analyzing chemical compounds. He also discovered the law of multiple proportions and made contributions to gas laws. Dalton's atomic theory was foundational to modern chemistry despite some inaccuracies in his atomic models. He received honors including election as a Fellow of the Royal Society and erection of a statue in his lifetime in recognition of his scientific achievements.
John dalton
John Dalton was an English chemist and physicist in the late 18th/early 19th century best known for pioneering atomic theory and discovering color blindness. He proposed that all matter is composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms, which combine in simple whole number ratios to form compounds. Dalton created the first table of relative atomic weights based on chemical analysis. His atomic theory was highly influential despite some inaccuracies, and its key principles of atoms combining and elements having unique atomic properties survive today in modern chemistry.
Priestley & lavoisier 112
This document provides a summary of Antoine Lavoisier's contributions to chemistry, including:
1) Lavoisier disproved the theory of phlogiston through experiments showing that combustion reactions involve gases combining with oxygen rather than releasing phlogiston.
2) He established that water is a compound of hydrogen and oxygen by collecting and weighing the products of a combustion reaction.
3) Lavoisier is considered the founder of modern chemistry for his establishment of a system of chemical nomenclature and for listing the first table of chemical elements. He emphasized quantitative experiments and conservation of mass.

The document discusses the historical development of concepts related to the origin and evolution of life. It describes early hypotheses from the 1920s put forth by Oparin and Haldane that suggested organic molecules could form from inorganic ones in the reducing atmosphere of early Earth. The 1953 Miller-Urey experiment provided evidence for this by demonstrating amino acid synthesis from simple gases. Evidence for early life includes microfossils of cyanobacteria and stromatolites from 3.5 billion years ago. Carl Woese's 1977 work established the three domains of life - Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya - based on genetic analysis.

Antoine lavoisierby cy khang
Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794) was a French chemist who is considered the "Father of Modern Chemistry". He developed the first geological map of France and proved that elements are basic substances that cannot be broken down further. Lavoisier established that elements could be classified into metals and non-metals and drew up one of the first lists of elements. Although his early periodic table attempts were imperfect, his work helped scientists better understand and discover new elements. Despite his scientific contributions, Lavoisier was executed during the French Revolution due to political conflicts.

Introduction to Chemistry
This document provides an introduction to chemistry. It discusses that chemistry is the study of matter and the changes matter undergoes. Energy is involved in these changes and transformations. Chemistry can be divided into five traditional areas: analytical, biochemical, inorganic, organic, and physical. Applied chemistry aims to solve practical problems, while pure chemistry pursues knowledge for its own sake. The scientific method involves making observations, forming hypotheses, conducting experiments, and drawing conclusions. Laws describe observable patterns in nature, while theories are explanatory frameworks. The document emphasizes that collaboration and communication are important for scientific progress.
Assignment sa cheeeeem
Leucippus was an early Greek philosopher who developed the theory of atomism. He believed that everything is composed of indivisible atoms that have always and will always be in motion. He had a student named Democritus who expanded on his atomic theory. Robert Boyle later advanced the idea that basic elements are particles or corpuscles of different sizes and shapes that can combine to form chemical substances.

Antoine lavoisier
- 2. Born in 1743 to a wealthy upper class family His father was a lawyer His mother died when he was 5 years old But he died on 05/08/1794 of Guillotined
- 3. He went to law school to fulfill the family dream At the age of 21 he began to fulfill his dream to study mathematics He studied astronomy, botany, & geology under great scientist of the time
- 4. In 1771 he married 13 year old Marie-Anne Perette Paulze She proved to be scientific colleague, by learning English She drew sketches of apparatuses & laboratory & the illustrations for the book Elementaire de Chemie
- 5. 1. The Law Of Conservation Of Mass 2. The Nature Of Combustion 3. Water Is A Compound 4. Elements And Chemical Nomenclature 5. The First Chemistry Textbook 6. The Caloric Theory 7. Animal Breathing 8. Contribution To The Study Of Photosynthesis
- 6. 1- The law of conservation of mass The mass of products in a chemical reaction is equal to the mass of the reactants.. Mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. Law Lomonosov- lavoisier", 2- The nature of combustion The major scientific theories of lavoisier's time was the phlogiston theory , which affirmed that the combustion was formed by an element called phlogiston. When things burned, freed phlogiston in the air. Element, oxygen, played an important role in combustion.
- 7. 3- Water is a compound water was a compound made of hydrogen And oxygen. Before this discovery, scientists throughout history had thought that water was an element. Lavoisier reported that the water was about 85% oxygen and 15% hydrogen by weight. Therefore, the water appeared to contain 5.6 times more oxygen by weight than hydrogen. 4- Elements and chemical nomenclature Lavoisier laid the foundations of modern chemistry, incorporating a "Table of Simple Substances, "the first modern list of elements then known. A large part of your system for naming chemical compounds is still in use today. In addition, he named the element hydrogen and identified sulfur as an element, noting that it could not be broken down into simpler substances.
- 8. 5- The first chemistry textbook In 1789, Lavoisier wrote the"Elemental Chemistry Treaty", becoming the first chemistry book, which contained the list of elements, the most recent theories and laws of chemistry (including mass conservation), and in Which also refuted the existence of phlogiston. 6- The caloric theory n the theory of the combustion, in which, he argued, the combustion process gave rise to the release of caloric particles. He started from the idea that in each combustion there is a detachment of the heat (or igneous) or light matter, to later prove that the "heat matter "is weightless by checking that the phosphor burns in the air in a Closed flask with no appreciable change in weight.
- 9. In canonical history of chemistry ,Lavoisier is the leader of the 18th-century. Lavoisier was fortunate in having made his contribution to the chemical revolution before the disruptions of political revolution. In 1785, his new theory of combustion was gaining support and the campaign to reconstruct chemistry according to its percepts began. In 1787, new nomenclature of chemistry accepted.
- 10. He published a report on the state of French finances and a classic statistical study of the economic resources of the country. In 1791, he was subjected to a bitter and virulent arrack in a French newspaper. When lavoisier, directior of the academy denounced the decree, he was arrested. From there on the ridiculus charge of”plotting with foreign nations”,HE WAS CONDEMNED TO DEATH
