 Berthollet, Claude-Louis
Although Berthollet at first criticized features of the new chemistry (and never did accept Lavoisier's oxygen-based theory of acidification), he was the first chemist of Lavoisier's circle to formally and publicly become a supporter.
Berthollet also contributed to another scientific study of a major industry of the 1780s: ironmaking and steelmaking.
But Berthollet challenged his predecessors' view that the strengths of chemical affinity forces were determined solely by the nature of the reagents and were invariant under all physical and chemical condition.

His comfortable existence as the privately tutored son of a well-to-do lawyer was disrupted by political and social upheavals: His tutor fled, and his father was imprisoned.
In 1808 Gay-Lussac announced what was probably his single greatest achievement: From his own and others' experiments he deduced that gases at constant temperature and pressure combine in very simple numerical proportions by volume, resulting in a product or products—if gases—also bear a simple proportion by volume to the volumes of the reactants.
With his fellow professor at the École Polytechnique, Louis Jacques Thénard, Gay-Lussac also participated in early electrochemical research, investigating the elements discovered by its means.

On graduation Gay-Lussac was taken in hand by Claude Louis Berthollet, from whom he received training in chemical research.
His first major publication involved a study of the thermal expansion of gases at constant pressure, a subject pursued at the same time, though less accurately, by John Dalton.
He hesitated to embrace Dalton’s theories perhaps because his mentor, Berthollet, advocated variable composition (“berthollides”) while Dalton insisted on fixed composition (“daltonides”).

 Towards a Common Enumeration of Vulnerabilities   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The discovery of the periodic system for classifying the elements represents the culmination of a number of scientific developments, rather than a sudden brainstorm of the part of one individual… Prior to Mendeleev’s discovery [in 1869], other scientists had been actively developing some kind of organizing system to describe the elements.
In 1787, for example, French chemist Antoine Lavoisier, working with Antoine Fourcroy, Louis-Bernard Guyton de Morveau and Claude-Louis Berthollet, devised a list of the 33 elements known at the time.
The power of the modern table lies in its two- or three- dimensional display of all the known elements (and even ones yet to be discovered) in a logical system of precisely ordered rows and columns.
