Sobre este artículo
FIRST COLLECTED EDITION, AND VERY RARE, of Scheele's works in German, which contains in vol. 1 his independently made discovery of oxygen in his famous chemical treatise on the air and fire (Chemische Abhandlung von der Luft und dem Feuer). The treatise includes accounts of the numerous chemical experiments Scheele performed to demonstrate that common air, when freed from "aerial acid" (carbon dioxide) and water vapor, consists of two gases: "fire air" (oxygen) which supports combustion, and "fire air" (nitrogen), which does not. Vol. 2 consists of essays from the Transactions of the Academy of Sciences at Stockholm. Grolier/Horblit summarizes his other achievements thus: "He was the discoverer of chlorine, barium, manganese . . . and many compounds" (Grolier/Horblit). "Scheele was an experimental genius; he made more discoveries of first-rate importance with fewer opportunities and scantier appliances than any one else, and his skill, insight and power of illuminating experimental results have never been surpassed, if, indeed, they have ever been equalled" (Ferguson). He also noted the action of light on chloride of silver and the insolubility of blackened silver chloride in ammonia - discoveries that would later prove significant for photography.
