77467Paris J. L. Boilly 1820. Engraved broadsheet 36.3 x 27.3 cm. = A rarely-seen portrait of the French chemist and pharmacist Louis Nicolas Vauquelin FRS 1763-1829. He was the discoverer of two elements: chromium and beryllium. The artist Julien-Léopold Boilly 1796-1874 was noted for his album of lithographs Iconographie de l'Institut royal de France ou collection des portraits des Membres composant les quatre académies depuis 1814 jusqu'en 1825 1820-1825. His portraits are much less stiff and formal than many by his contemporaries. Signed by the artist in the lower left margin of the portrait and dated 1820. The caption states the date of his birth and the year 1795 in which Vauquelin was elected as a member of the Institut. Uncut. With in the lower right corner a small oval blindstamp 'Galerie Vivienne Bénard'. Scattered mild foxing; a damp-stain in the top-left corner some soling denting and marginal fraying as well as a short tear in the top edge; otherwise good. unknown

1798799Paris: Chez Fuchs et Guillaume 1798. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION OF TWO PAPERS BY VAUQUELIN REPORTING THE DISCOVERY OF BERYLIUM. <br /> <br /> Louis Nicolas Vauquelin 16 May 1763 - 14 November 1829 was a French pharmacist and chemist who reports in this paper his discovery of a new ‘earth' obtained by pulverizing gemstone emerald before melting with three times its mass of potassium hydroxide" Walsh Beryllium Chemistry 7. In beryl beryllium aluminum silicate he found an earth oxide that superficially resembled alumina aluminum oxide but was insoluble in alkali and did not form alum. At the suggestion of the editors of Annales de Chimie Vauquelin named it glucina from the sweetness of its sulfate but when first isolated in 1828 by Friedrich Wohler and independently Antoine Bussy it was renamed beryllium DSB Vol. 13 p. 597. <br /> <br /> Though both Beryl and emerald were known as early as 77 A. D. they were not thought to be identical in any way. In 1797 the French mineralogist René Just Haüy noticed that the crystallographic structure of the two minerals seemed similar. Haüy urged Vauquelin to fully determine the chemical composition of each. <br /> <br /> As to the import and uses of Beryllium the national laboratory at Los Alamos states: "Beryllium is used as an alloying agent in producing beryllium copper which is extensively used for springs electrical contacts spot-welding electrodes and non-sparking tools. It is applied as a structural material for high-speed aircraft missiles spacecraft and communication satellites. Other uses include windshield frame brake discs support beams and other structural components of the space shuttle. Beryllium is used in nuclear reactors as a reflector or moderator for it has a low thermal neutron absorption cross section. It is used in gyroscopes computer parts and instruments where lightness stiffness and dimensional stability are required. The oxide has a very high melting point and is also used in nuclear work and ceramic applications" Periodic Table of Elements LANL Los Alamos National Laboratory Portal. <br /> <br /> ALSO INCLUDED: Martin Heinrich Klaproth report on the discovery of tellurium. Additionally Klaproth discovered or co-discovered zirconium 1789 titanium 1792 strontium 1793 chromium 1797 mellitic acid 1799 and cerium 1803 DSB Vol. 7 p. 394.

A few scattered brownspots. Small stamps on verso of titlepage. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of the paper in which the authors records a series of experiments on the combustion of hydrogen the aim of which was to confirm Lavoisier's large scale experiments on the synthesis of water. They finally proved that water only contains hydrogen and oxygen and found the approximate ratio of their weights."In May 1790 Séguin read to the Académie des Sciences the report on the larg-scale synthesis of water carried out in Fourcroy’s laboratory by himself Fourcroy and Vauquelin. The purpose of this experiment was to establish finally that water is composed only of hydrogen and oxygen and that the weight of water is fully accounted for by the weights of the two gases. They also sought to determine accurately the combining ratio of the components of water an especially important constant in oxygen chemistry. They found that the ratio hydrogen: oxygen is 2.052:1 by volume and 14.338:85.662 by weight. The discrepancies from the true figure probably arose from the difficulties of weighing the gases."DSB.Apart from other importent chemical papers by Fourcroy Seguin Klaproth etc. the volume contains Joseph Black's famous letter to Lavoisier where Black gives up his phlogistic theory and accepts the new chemistry lead by Lavoisier.

Greek chroma-colour.In 1797 Vauquelin began his own studies of Siberian red lead. He was convinced that the mineral contained a new element. None of the elements then known could account for his results. He reported "a new metal possessing properties entirely unlike those of any other metal." A year later Vauquelin was able to isolate a small sample of the metal itself. He heated charcoal nearly pure carbon with a compound of chromium chromium trioxide Cr 2 O 3 . When the reaction was complete he found tiny metallic needles of chromium metal.

She helped to broaden the education of American women with her popularization of the sciences as fit subjects for girls and was the author of a series of popular textbooks that were used in both boys and girls schools. In her preface to this book pp. vii-x written while she was vice principal at the Troy Female Seminary she explains a bit more about her role as translator and editor of this dictionary: "The compilers of the original work are MM. Brismontier Le Coq and Boisduval . their work having been submitted to the great chemist Vauquelin appeared under the sanction of his illustrious name. The translator has made additions from Ure Webster Green Journal of science Silliman's chemistry and some of the latest French writers." DAB 7; NAW 3; Amer.
