Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794), “The Elements of Chemistry”, 1789, PART FOUR (IV).


Antoine Lavoisier, “The Elements’ of Chemistry”, 1789 was the topic of an earlier blog post.


Here I present: Antoine Lavoisier, “The Elements’ of Chemistry”, 1789, PART  FOUR (IV).

COMMENTS.


Nine (9) elements’ known in ancient Mesopotamia’ are shown ABOVE. Five (5) elements’ were of medieval discovery: 30 Zn (zinc), 33 As (arsenic), 51 Sb (antimony), 79 Pt (platinum), 83 Bi (bismuth).
Antoine Lavoisier added nine (9) elements’ of historical significance to his list, shown ABOVE. The nine (9) modern elements’ from Lavoisier were: 1 H (hydrogen), 7 N (nitrogen), 8 O (oxygen), 9 F (fluorine), 25 Mn (manganese), 27 Co (cobalt), 28 Ni (nickel), 42 Mo (molybdenum), 74 W (tungsten). This table contains twenty-three (23) elements’; and, nine (9) are ancient, five (5) are medieval, plus nine (9) from Lavoisier’s era.

SUMMARY.

The periodic table’ BELOW contains fourteen (14) elements’ for which the flags of the nationality of the chemist are not presented as national flags.

This is because they were discovered in ancient or medieval history; and, national flags of the BELOW  table are of modern chemists.


Native elements are those that occur in nature in as pure-phases.   The following is an alphabetical list of native elements’. ­

Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794), provided in 1789 that chemical elements’ could exist pure-phases of condensed-matter in Nature.  However, copper (Cu), gold (Au), silver (Ag), iron (Fe) … etcetera … occur in Nature for anyone to see this part of the Mineral Kingdom of Nature.
