lavoisier's classification of elements

A.L.Lavoisier and P.S.Laplace gave this law in 1780 which states that 'the enthalpy of a reaction is exactly equal but opposite in sign for the reverse reaction'. For example, if D H is the enthalpy change in going from A to B then the enthalpy change for the process B to A would be - D..

Hydrogen was named by Lavoisier using the Greek words 'Hydro' ie., water and 'Genes' meaning forming. Chlorine has its origin from Greek word - 'Chloros' - meaning greenish yellow, 'Bromos' means stench in Greek and 'Iodes' in Greek means violet. The word nickel has originated fro..

Daniel Rutherford, a Scottish Physician, discovered nitrogen in 1772. But it was Lavoisier, who proved that nitrogen is an element and that it was not a supporter of combustion and respiration. He called it 'azote' meaning 'no life'. The name 'Nitrogen' was given to it by ..
