The Creation of Chemistry - The Fundamental Laws

Antoine Lavoisier was the creator of chemistry, he found out and named oxygen and hydrogen, he also proved that silicon existed and one person said he sold tobacco so he got killed by a guillotine is a fast death but it is horrible when you have to get killed by a guillotine because you will die, it cuts off your head, there is a blade on the top and then they pull a rope so the blade will go up and then the person puts his head and the guillotine and then they let go of the rope then the blade falls and it cuts off the person's head that is a really horrible death and a lot of people watch you die in the old days if you get killed by a guillotine ( maybe children also watch you die but that is not good ) that death is really horrible.

The person who discovered chemistry was smart ( already forgot his name ) Antoine Lavoisier ( found out his name again ) married a girl when she was thirteen ( weird but it was not really surprising in the old days ) there is a paint of her and Antoine, Antoine had grey hair but his wife did not and his wife looks a lot younger than him, now you cannot be married at thirteen you have to be eighteen, getting married when you are thirteen sounds weird doesn't it? Chemistry was hard to discover but they did find it and people were surprised and amazed but now chemistry doesn't sound so amazing because it is not new and a lot of people know about chemistry but before not many people knew how about chemistry and a really long time ago nobody knew about it because nobody was really smart in those days.

Antoine's laboratory is in a museum, it is old but it was cool that they found it, it is really his laboratory it is not a model or a fake one that you can buy, it is the real one. Antoine died when he was fifty years old in 8 May 1794 ( so that means that chemistry was found a long time ago ).

Antoine studied other stuff like astronomy, botany and mathematics. Antoine was friends with Benjamin Franklin ( he is the sixth president of Pennsylvania )

Antoine was 28 when he married his 13 year old wife. He researched on gases, water, and combustion, he explained how metals rusted and that how oxygen was in plants' and animals' respiration. The person who accused Antoine of selling tobacco died because he was assassinated and they thought it was Antoine ( but we are not sure if it was him ) so they killed Antoine with a guillotine.

Antoine's wife helped him in his experiments. Antoine actually helped the French revolution, he was born in those days that is a long time ago and he was born in Paris and died in Paris ( that is because there was nothing to get to another country because nobody even made a computer like yours, well maybe the plane was made but it was too dangerous to have a lot of people in it because the first plane was made out of wood and the first pilot to ride it almost died because if the plane crashes in the water it will not work and there is nobody to save you but now there are boats and life jackets in the plane so you can float but in those days if you don't know how to swim you are dead because you would just drown and die but you have a chance of living if your friend saves you but if you are alone you will die but sometimes you can be washed up on a beach or something.

Antoine was born to a wealthy family and his wife's family was also wealthy.

When Antoine was guillotined, he probably bleed a lot because you have no head and blood everywhere and it is a horrible sight good thing there are no more people who use guillotines to execute people ( I think because well who wants to see so much blood and do you see anybody get killed by a guillotine now, you don't do you, but if a random person kills people with a guillotine for no reason is bad because there are still guillotines but the are not used so they put them in museums and stuff ). the guillotine was famous in France because they used it a lot and Antoine was killed by a guillotine in France ( is that why it is so famous in France? )

Any way this is the end of my post.
