What did Joseph Priesley discover in 1744?
Joseph Priestly discovered "oxygen" in 1744. He called it "dephlogisticated air."
What is the modern word for the gas produced by a plant to make dephlogisticated air?
Oxygen.
Who is the inventor of oxygen?
idk i think it waz named by gorgi longe Actually there were three people who were credited for it and they didn't invent it either, they just discovered the theory and proved it. Carl Scheele from Sweden Antoine Lavoisier from France, and John Priestly from England. Carl Scheele was the first to experiment with it, Priestly was the first to publish it (as "Dephlogisticated air") but Lavoisier was the first one to actually understand it (And name it Oxygen)
Where did Joseph Priestly discover oxygen?
In 1772, Priestley made another important discovery. He had placed a shoot of a green plant into a container of water. He then covered the container and lit a candle in it until it completely burned out. Later, Priestley was able to both burn the candle again and keep mice alive in the air (did they have lab mice back then?). Priestley became the first person ever to observe the photosynthesis in plants - the fact that they take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen.
How did priestly test oxygen to show it was different from air?
He put a piece of mint leaf in a covered container and lit a candle inside it. The candle burnt longer than it did when there was no plant in the container. He also tested this experiment with a rat.

Why is the word oxygen called oxygen?
It derives from the French 'principe oxygene' which means 'acidifying principle'. The name was given because at the time it was thought that oxygen had to be present in an acid. The word was suggested by Antoine Lavoisier, the 'father of chemistry', though it was first isolated by Joseph Priestley. Priestly had called it 'dephlogisticated air' so I for one am very grateful to Lavoisier.
