  ROBERT WILHELM BUNSEN
Ironically, Bunsen will be remembered by generations of chemistry students for a mere improvement in a burner design, when his other contributions to the field of chemistry are vastly more significant and diverse, covering such areas as organic chemistry, arsenic compounds, gas measurements and analysis, the galvanic battery, elemental spectroscopy and geology.
In 1836, Bunsen was nominated to succeed Wöhler at Kassel.
Bunsen's habit was to assign a scientific task to his students and then to work with a student only as long as required to reach some measure of independence.

 Bunsen
Born in Göttingen, Bunsen studied chemistry at the local university and at Paris, Berlin, and Vienna.
Bunsen’s first important work was in the area of organic chemistry, where he studied the reactions of cacodyl, an organometallic compound of arsenic.
Use of the latter in conjunction with a glass prism led to the development of the Bunsen spectroscope in collaboration with the German physicist Gustav Kirchoff and to the spectroscopic discovery of the elements rubidium and cesium.
