	Stanislao Cannizzaro - Wikipedia
		Stanislao Cannizzaro (Palermo, 13 luglio 1826 – Roma, 10 maggio 1910) è stato un chimico e politico italiano.
		Dopo aver insegnato a Pisa e Napoli, occupa la cattedra di chimica organica e inorganica a Palermo: qui per dieci anni, fino al 1871, studia i composti aromatici e le amine.
		Il cratere Cannizzaro, sulla Luna, è stato così battezzato in suo onore.

	Stanislao Cannizzaro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Stanislao Cannizzaro (July 13, 1826 - May 10, 1910) was an Italian chemist.
		During the Sicilian revolution he served as an artillery officer at Messina and was also chosen deputy for Francavilla in the Sicilian parliament; and after the fall of Messina in September 1848 he was stationed at Taormina.
		Cannizzaro's scientific eminence in 1871 secured him admission to the Italian senate, of which he was vice-president, and as a member of the Council of Public Instruction and in other ways he rendered important services to the cause of scientific education in Italy.

		This was soon named the "Cannizzaro effect." As professor of chemistry at Genoa in 1855, he showed that the atomic weights of elements in volatile compounds could be calculated by applying Avogadro's Principle.
		Cannizzaro established values for atomic and molecular weights, incidentally distinguishing the two, designating the weight of hydrogen as the universal standard by which other elements should be measured.
		Senator Cannizzaro lived to witness Italian troops disgraced in defeat at Adwa (in Ethiopia) and the consequential fall of the government of his fellow Sicilian revolutionary, the cunning Crispi.

		Cannizzaro's reaction involves the treatment of an aromatic aldehyde with an alcoholic solution of potassium hydroxide.
		Reviving Avogadro's hypothesis 1858, Cannizzaro pointed out that once the molecular weight of a volatile compound had been determined from a measurement of its vapour density, it was necessary only to estimate, within limits, the atomic weight of one of its elemental components.

		It was at Alessandro that Cannizzaro completed his studies of the reaction in which the action of alkali on benzaldehyde generates benzoic acid and benzyl alcohol, which came to be known as the Cannizzaro reaction.
		Cannizzaro was a talented organic chemist and an early leader in the discipline, but it is his contribution to the then-existing debate over atoms, molecules, and atomic weights for which he is best known.
		Cannizzaro was present at the conference and spoke at length on virtually every subject that was debated.

		When Cannizzaro wrote the Sunto, there was no agreement among chemists as to what values should be adopted for atomic, molecular, or equivalent weights; no possibility of systematizing the relationship of the various elements; and no unanimity as to how organic compounds should be formulated.
		Cannizzaro showed how vapor densities could be used to determine molecular weights (and atomic weights), and he laid to rest completely the idea that inorganic and organic chemistry functioned by different rules.
		As Tilden summed up his work in the Cannizzaro Memorial Lecture to the Chemical Society, "There is, in fact, but one science of chemistry and one set of atomic weights." It was Cannizzaro's recognition of true atomic weights that permitted Meyer and Mendeleev to formulate the periodic law at the end of the 1860's.

		Stanislao Cannizzaro (1826-1910) Professor at Alessandria (1851-1854), Genoa (1855-1859), Palermo (1860-1869) and Rome (1870-1910), Cannizzaro is best known for his discovery of the Cannizzaro reaction in organic chemistry for the conversion of aromatic aldehydes into the corresponding acids and alcohols, and his successful resolution of the atomic weight problem.
		In 1858 Cannizzaro published a small pamphlet in which he reasserted Avogadro's earlier hypothesis (1811) that gas densities at equal pressures were directly proportional to molecular weights.
		With Cannizzaro's advance, chemists finally acquired a standard set of atomic weights and were able to determine unambiguous and universally accepted compositional formulas for their compounds.

		Sotto la direzione di questi, Cannizzaro esegue alcune ricerche sulla fisiologia del sistema nervoso sia in casa propria che in quella di Foderà, in quanto a Palermo non vi era un laboratorio di fisiologia.
		Cannizzaro vede nel lavoro del chimico francese la soluzione delle cosiddette "densità anomale" del cloruro d'ammonio e del pentacloruro di fosforo, che risultavano maggiori di quelle previste dal principiodi Avogadro e Ampère e che avevano condotto il chimico Charles Gerhardt (1816-1856) ad abbandonare per la chimica inorganica quel princìpi o.

		Piria engaged Cannizzaro as an extraordinary presetter of his lessons in Inorganic and Organic Chemistry, then sharing with him his researches on the chemistry of natural matters.
		Cannizzaro was already designing some independent researches, when on July 1847, when he was on holidays in Sicily, he stopped there to prepare the rebellion against the Borbons.
		We owe to Cannizzaro the first formal and stern promulgation of an atomic theory (Cannizzaro's Law) based on the principle of Amedeo Avogadro, who made possible to periodically classify elements, as can be seen in his famous book Sunto di un corso di filosofia chimica (1858) (Summary of a course in chemical philosophy).
