Created an idea that earth was made of three elements, salt, sulfur, and mercury, as the ingredients to make medicines and metals. Most during this era where interested in making gold. -
The destructive power of fire phlogiston that causes things to burn and reveal its true form. Helped discover more elements.
-
German Alchemist figuring out how to make gold. He thought urine was the key to make this. Instead found the element Phosphorus to create the discovery of elements. By changing the substances of nature to something useful valuable.
-
Experimented on Phosphorus, created the central ideas of a match. Helped unlocked the mysteries of matter as well.
-
Air discovery to finding out there is more than one kind of air. This discovery lead out to the discovery of carbon dioxide. Which changed the states of matter such as gas.
-
Royal Society still investigated the airs. Three known air or gases were known air, hydrogen, and fixed hair (carbon dioxide).
-
Contributed in discovering a new element that was said to be phlogiston which turned out being hydrogen. Lead to finding water is a compound.
-
Was interested in the science of gasses. He discovered nine new gasses by trying out anything. Inventing carbonation. -
-
Contributed to discovering oxygen but didn't acknowledge it yet.
-
Found there is the air oxygen that is safe to breath and failed to mention Priestly's previous discoveries had helped him.
-
Continues learning about different findings both Priestly and Lavoisier contributed to finding oxygen
-
was essential to revolutionizing chemistry. Along with discovery of the law of mass
-
Helped create names to the elements. Lead to challenging people to finding more elements
-
Student who went through many experiments even testing on himself. Contributed to finding many elements majorly contributed to isolating chemicals. -
Contributed to discovery to better produce electricity. Contributing to more chemistry discovery such as separating water into it's two elements
-
Due to Alessandro findings it lead to Davy following his interests continuing to study electricity. Discovered potassium learning to pull apart things with electricity to discover elements due to the chemical reactions.
-
Discovered by Davy
-
Scientist around the world took Davys ideas and discovered more elements such as...
