    1661-Robert Boyle
    Robert Boyle was almost the first to figure out that many electrical forces were put into these inventions and how they reacted in what they call an analogy many were confused how you can make something and get it to react with it in the same way Robert Boyle found out a similar reaction to why they’re the same and able to be changed throughout time.

  • 1772-1794 Antoine Lavoisier

    1772-1794 Antoine Lavoisier
    Lavoisier found a way to make a chemical reaction by mass and made it so that it was easier to make them into a chemical. Many people were working on it at this time and many were trying to find out how to change reactions. He found out how to make a chemical have a law of behavior and made the total mass change and consume a different part of the reaction. He found that matter is conserved in a new way. Link text

    1776-1856 Amedeo Avogadro
    Amedeo Avogadro was an Italian lawyer who studied science and mathematics in 1800. He was expanding on the work of Boyle's and Charles work he clarified the difference between atoms and molecules. He found that the equal amount of volume on gas is at the same pressure temperature and the same number of molecules. Link Text

    1839-1903 Willard Gibbs
    Willard Gibbs was a college grad at Yale University studying for 7 years in physics and studying statistical Mechanics he was the one to make a concept and free energy and make it take off of one or more projects he was able to free up time and usage of volume in a whole he was able to control temperature, pressure, energy, and entropy.

  • 1834-1907 Dmitri Mendeleev

    1834-1907 Dmitri Mendeleev
    Dmitri was a Russian chemist known for developing the first periodic table of the elements. He listed the first 63 elements and properties on cards. When he arranged the elements in order of increasing atomic mass he could group the many elements to turn it into the first findings of the periodic table. When they fit into a pattern they looked even more exact when he looked at them and made copies by looking at them and re-writing them he gave them around to chemists around the world.
  • 1896-1903 Henri Becquerel

    1896-1903 Henri Becquerel
    Henri discovered radiation along with pierre and Marie Curie he showed the certain elements emit energy at fixed rates. In 1903 he had a great discovery a lot of chemists used his theory on radiation to make many more discoveries. The discovery was that he was able to make up smaller particles no matter how much you made of what you were making up since radiation broke it smaller and dissolved it. Link Text
  • 1911-1943 Ernst Rutherford

    1911-1943 Ernst Rutherford
    Ernst Rutherford demonstrated that atoms consisted of a tiny dense positively charged region of empty space in which still smaller negatively charged particles electrons move. Rutherford assumed that the electrons orbit the nucleus in separate neat orbits. Link Text
