Study Notes
Law of Conservation of Mass
- The Law of Conservation of Mass was formulated by Antoine Lavoisier.
- The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, only transformed from one substance to another.
- The basic empirical 'laws' of quantitative chemistry, including the Law of Conservation of Mass, were formulated in the late 18th century.
Antoine Lavoisier's Contributions
- Antoine Lavoisier played a significant role in the history of chemistry, contributing to the development of modern chemistry.
- Lavoisier also had a large influence on the history of biology.
- He is credited with the discovery of the Law of Conservation of Mass.
Key Concepts
- The main idea behind the Law of Conservation of Mass is that matter is conserved, only changing form, not quantity.
- The Law of Mass Conservation is another term for the Law of Conservation of Mass, stating that matter cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed.
