Best Answer

The Law of Conservation of Mass dates from Antoine Lavoisier's 1789 discovery that mass is neither created nor destroyed in chemical reactions. In other words, the mass of any one element at the beginning of a reaction will equal the mass of that element at the end of the reaction.

Antoine Lavoisier, a French scientist working in the 1700's was one of the first to successfully apply the theory of conservation of mass in experimental chemistry.

he pooped his pants and then thought hey there needs to be a law for the conservation of mass! I know this because it was passed on in my family for years

What did Joseph Priestley invent?

Joseph Priestly is most famous for having discovered oxygen. He also discovered other gasses and invented carbonated beverages (soda water) and the pencil eraser. A Unitarian minister, his books "History of the Corruptions of Christianity" and "Jesus and Socrates Compared" had a great impact on the religious views of Thomas Jefferson, with whom he corresponded until his death in 1804. The Unitarian movement was at the time a Christian movement that viewed Jesus as human and denied the Trinity


How could the government enforce ethical standards of scientific exeriments?

If the government wished to enforce ethical standards for scientific experiments, they could appoint some person or agency to review all scientific publications, in search of experiments which seem to be unethical, which could then be investigated further and, if actual ethical violations are found, prosecuted under whatever legislation was passed to create ethical standards (or possibly under existing laws about cruelty to animals).


When there is a sudden collapse of a magnetic field in or around a solenoid. what happens?

Electric current will be induced in such a way that the flux of the magnetic field will be constant and thereby the induced current will create magnetic field in the same direction. This is what we call Lenz's law(law of conservation of energy).


What influences Sir Isaac Newton to invent the three laws of motion?

It is hard to say exactly "why" Newton created his Laws of motion. It is likely that Newton agreed with Galileo that Nature was mathematical and Newton was searching for the mathematical expression of Nature to explain "Keplars Laws of Motion".Actually Newton's "three laws" are but one law, the Conservation of Gravitational Energy, E= -mGM/r + mcV. Newton left out mcV the kinetic/vector energy.The derivative of gravitational energy is XE=F=ma. If the derivative of energy is zero, then the sum of the forces is zero and this is the conservation of energy and the equilibrium condition.Newton's First law is the Conservation of Energy, no force equals no acceleration" and no acceleration equals no change in motion, thus motion is constant, including the constant zero.Newton's Second law , describes force and acceleration F= ma .Newton's Third law is the same Conservation of Energy again. the sum of the (vector) forces is zero.

When Henry invented the periodic table?

A Russian scientist name, Dmitri Mendelee in 1869, is given credit for inventing the Periodic Table. Although, he did base his research on a French scientist name, Antoine Lavoisier. The reason why Mendelee invented the Periodic Table was to create a why to logically organized the known elements by their atomic weight, atomic mass, and atomic number.

What is the story of the discovery of Oxygen?

The scientist that is most often credited with the discovery of Oxygen is Joseph Priestly. Priestly experimented by placing mice in sealed jars. He noticed they would collapse over time. Once he slipped a piece of mint inside and the plant revived the mouse. He then realized that plants must have been releasing something (oxygen) to revitalize the air. Another scientist who discovered oxygen was Carl Wilhelm Sheele. He found that upon heating mercuric oxide, silver carbonate, magnesium nitrate, and potassium nitrate, the same was released (oxygen). He called this fire air because he noticed sparks being produced when the gas was mixed with charcoal dust. Finally, there is Antoine Laurent Lavoisier. Lavoisier also discovered oxygen, as a means to debunking the existence of phlogiston, a mysterious material used in combustion. Lavoisier heated mercury a powdery substance formed. Then he heated the powder until it gave off a gas. Lavoisier concluded that combustion resulted from a chemical reaction with gas and not the mysterious phlogiston. He called this gas oxygen because of its ability to create acids.
