Discovered that a gas, oxygen and a fuel was was essential to the process of burning.
The dinitrogen monoxide (N2O) was discovered by Joseph Priestley in 1772.
Oxygen was the substance produced by the mint plant. Joseph Priestley enclosed a mint plant in a container, along with a burning candle. After the flame consumed all the oxygen, it went out. Despite the fact that the mint plant was in a closed container, after another 27 days had passed, Priestley was able to reignite the candle. This proved that plants produce oxygen, which is a gas that allows fuels to burn.
Oxygen
Joseph Priestley and Antoine Lavoisier's work helped change the ideas of burning by showing that it involves the combination of a substance with oxygen from the air, rather than the release of a substance called phlogiston as previously believed. Their experiments laid the foundation for the modern understanding of combustion and the role of oxygen in the process.
Oxygen was discovered in 1774 by Joseph Priestley in England.
Joseph Priestley is credited with this discovery.
because he was in academy air
Joseph Priestley conducted an experiment where he placed mint leaves in a closed space along with a burning candle. He noticed that the mint leaves released a substance that kept the candle burning brighter and longer than usual, later identified as oxygen. This experiment contributed to Priestley's discovery of the process of photosynthesis.
