LaVoisier did not invent a "periodic" table, he simply was one of the first to make a scientific list of elements, doing so in 1789 with Traité Élémentaire de Chimie . However, this list was not "periodic" in that he made no attempt to line them up by chemical qualities. When this was done by Mendele'ev about 100 years later, a major breakthrough in chemistry was achieved.

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)

Antoine Lavoisier is often credited with writing the first modern chemical textbook, titled "Traité élémentaire de chimie" (Elementary Treatise of Chemistry), published in 1789.

Who established that the total mass of the products is always equal to the total mass of the reactants?

Antoine Lavoisier established the law of conservation of mass in the late 18th century. This fundamental principle states that in a closed system, the total mass of substances before a chemical reaction is always equal to the total mass of substances after the reaction.
