Carl Wilhelm Scheele - New World Encyclopedia Scheele made many discoveries in chemistry before others who are generally given the credit One of Scheele's most famous discoveries was oxygen produced as a by-product in a number of experiments in which he heated chemicals, during 1771-1772
Scheele — Toxipedia Carl Wilhelm Scheele (December 9, 1742 - May 21, 1786) was a brilliant German-Swedish chemist credited with discovering numerous chemical substances including oxygen (before Joseph Priestly) and chlorine (before Humphry Davy)
SCHEELE, CARL WILHELM (1742 - 1786) Scheele's treatise contains accounts of the numerous chemical experiments Scheele performed to demonstrate that common air, when freed from "aerial acid" (carbon dioxide) and water vapor, consists of two gases: "fire air" (oxygen) which supports combustion, and "foul air" (nitrogen), which does not
Carl Wilhelm Scheele - Linda Hall Library Scheele was interested in isolating the "good air," which supports life and combustion He discovered several reactions by which he could produce and isolate "good" air
Scheele — Beautiful Chemistry In very basic laboratory, Scheele’s outstanding experimental skills enabled him to make many contributions to chemistry, among which the most famous one was the independent discovery of oxygen around 1773
Scheele - Yale University We will begin our history of organic chemistry with Lavoisier in 1789, a year that was as revolutionary in chemistry as it was in politics But we must realize that all of chemistry did not spring suddenly from Lavoisier's brow He and his colleagues built on a long tradition of practical chemistry in such fields as metallurgy, dyeing, preparing alcoholic beverages, and, particularly, medicine
Scheele, Carl - Encyclopedia. com Scheele is most often remembered as one of the discoverers of oxygen, along with Joseph Priestley and Antoine Lavoisier Scheele's work on the gas he called "fire-air" was completed between 1770 and 1773
