What did Antoine Lavoisier discover about oxygen's role in the burning of matter?
Lavoisier discovered that burning is impossible without oxyge.
Why did the work of Joseph prietsley and Antoine lavoisier change the ideas of burning?
Lavoisier discovered that burning and respiration involve oxygen.
Who proved materials needed oxygen to burn?
Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier proved it in France in the late 18th century. I'm not sure about any of the specific experiments he used to prove it, but you can go here if you want to read about one experiment at the link below:
How did josph priesley and Antoine lavoisier change people's ideas about burning?
They made people aware about how burning happens
When did lavoisier?
Antoine Lavoisier determined that oxygen was a key substance in combustion, and he gave the element its name. He developed the modern system of naming chemical substances and has been called the “father of modern chemistry” for his emphasis on careful experimentation.

Who disprooved the phlogiston theory?
Antoine Laurent Lavoisier Lavoisier showed that combustion requires a gas that has weight (oxygen) and that the gas released during combustion (carbon dioxide) could be measured by means of weighing closed vessels (jars) containing burning substances. The use of closed vessels removed the weight of the outside air which had disguised the mass of the 'phlogiston' which was supposedly released during combustion thus making the released CO² measurable.
