Antoine Laurent Lavoisier, formerly Lavoisier, born August 26, 17431 in Paris and guillotined on May 8, 17941,2 in Paris, is a French chemist, philosopher and economist, often presented as the father of modern chemistry, which will develop from the bases and notions that he established and from a new requirement for precision offered by the instruments that he developed. He inaugurated the scientific method, both experimental and mathematical, in this field which, unlike mechanics, seemed to escape it.Beyond the discoveries of oxidation, the components of air and water, and the state of matter, his contributions to the chemical revolution are at the same time technical, experimental and epistemological. They result from a conscious effort to fit all experiments within the framework of a simple theory in which, for the first time, the modern notion of element is presented systematically. Lavoisier established the consistent use of chemical equilibrium, used his research on oxygen, for which he invented the name, nitrogen and hydrogen to overturn phlogiston theory, developed a new chemical nomenclature which supports, this which will prove to be incorrect, that oxygen is an essential constituent of all acids. A precursor of stoichiometry, he above all translated reactions into chemical equations which respect the law of conservation of matter, giving it a solid experimental basis.Financier by trade, keen to establish precise, useful statisticsBeyond the discoveries of oxidation, the components of air and water, and the state of matter, his contributions to the chemical revolution are at the same time technical, experimental and epistemological.
