	Carl Wilhelm Scheele - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Carl Wilhelm Scheele, (December 9, 1742 - May 21, 1786) a Swedish chemist, born in Stralsund, Pomerania, Germany (back then a Swedish province), was the discoverer of many chemical substances, most notably discovering oxygen before Joseph Priestley.
		Scheele worked as a pharmacist in Stockholm, from 1770 to 1775 in Uppsala, and later in Köping.
		Scheele also discovered other chemical elements such as barium (1774), chlorine (1774), manganese (1774), molybdenum (1778), and tungsten (1781), as well as several chemical compounds, including citric acid, glycerol, hydrogen cyanide (also known, in aqueous solution, as prussic acid), hydrogen fluoride, and hydrogen sulfide.

	KARL WILHELM SCHEELE - LoveToKnow Article on KARL WILHELM SCHEELE
		Bergman somehow neglected it, and this caused for a time a reluctance on Scheeles part to become acquainted with that savant, but the paper, through the instrumentality of Anders Johann Retzius (1742-1821), was ultimately communicated to the Academy of Sciences at Stockholm.
		Scheeles power as an experimental investigator has seldom if ever been surpassed, and his accuracy is most remarkable when his primitive apparatus, his want of assistance, his place of residence, and the undeveloped state of chemical and physical science in his time, are all taken into account.
		The analysis of manganese dioxide in 1774 led him to the discovery of chlorine and baryta; to the description of various salts of manganese itself, including the manganates and permanganates, and to the explanation of its action in coloring and decolourizing glass.

		But although Scheele first pointed out the bleaching quality of his newly discovered gas, it was the French savant, Berthollet, who, acting upon Scheele's discovery that the new gas would decolorize vegetables and flowers, was led to suspect that this property might be turned to account in destroying the color of cloth.
		Until the time of Scheele the great subject of organic chemistry had remained practically unexplored, but under the touch of his marvellous inventive genius new methods of isolating and studying animal and vegetable products were introduced, and a large number of acids and other organic compounds prepared that had been hitherto unknown.
		Scheele not only made the discoveries, but told the world how he had made them--how any chemist might have made them if he chose--for he never considered that he had really discovered any substance until he had made it, decomposed it, and made it again.

		Karl (or Carl) Wilhelm Scheele, Swedish chemist, discoverer of many chemical substances.
		Scheele also discovered other chemical elements like chlorine (1774), manganese (1774), tungsten (1781), barium, and molybdenum (1782), as well as several molecules like glycerol, hydrocyanic acid (aka prussic acid), citric acid, hydrogen sulphide, and hydrogen fluoride.
		As many chemists in his time, Scheele often worked under difficult and often dangerous conditions, which might explain his early death.

		The arsenic pigments Scheele’s green and Emerald green, the mercurial vermilion, green lead chromate, cadmium yellow, arsenical Naples ’s yellow, the cyanide salt Prussian blue, were the staple colours used to brighten up the Georgian and Victorian home.
		A campaign was run by the Lancet to banish arsenic greens — copper arsenite (Scheele’s green) and copper aceto arsenite (Emerald green)—as many illnesses and deaths were attributed to rooms wallpapered with arsenic stained papers.
		Arsenic greens were first synthesised in 1778 by the renowned Swedish chemist Karl Scheele —the discoverer of oxygen (independently from Joseph Priestly).

		Lavoisier called it oxygen, which means "acid generator," because he believed it erroneously to be an essential part of every acid.
		Not only did Scheele discover oxygen, but he also discovered chlorine, arsenic, and the tartaric, oxalic, and prussic acids.
		These achievements are recognized; but, in the case of phlogiston, modern science prefers to follow Lavoisier in disbelieving Stahl and Scheele.

		Gaseous ammonia was first isolated by J. Priestley in 1774 and was termed by him "alkaline air".
		In 1777 Karl Wilhelm Scheele showed that it contained nitrogen, and Claude Louis Berthollet, in about 1785, ascertained its composition.
		The Haber process to produce ammonia from the nitrogen contained in the air was developed by Fritz Haber and Carl Bosch in 1909 and patented in 1910.
