WHO IS THE FATHER OF CHEMISTRY? |
| The Father of Chemistry for a homework assignment, your best answer probably is Antoine Lavoisier. Lavoisier wrote the book Elements of Chemistry (1787). He compiled the first complete (at that time) list of elements, discovered and named oxygen and hydrogen, helped develop the metric system, helped revise and standardize chemical nomenclature and discovered that matter retains its mass even when it changes forms. Another popular choice for the title of Father of Chemistry is Jabir ibn Hayyan, a Persian alchemist living around 800 AD who applied scientific principles to his studies. Other people sometimes known as the Father of Modern Chemistry are Robert Boyle, Berzelius and John Dalton. |
