World Scientist: Antoine Lavoisier

By Manish Verma

HE DISCOVERED THE TRUE NATURE OF COMBUSTION
Antoine Lavoisier transformed chemistry with meticulous experiments and keen logic. By carefully observing the way things burn, he discovered that fire relies on a gas we now call oxygen. Lavoisier also showed that matter is neither created nor destroyed during chemical reactions. His work marked the birth of modern chemistry and gave us a new understanding of matter itself.
