This voyage together with the voyage in the same year with Biot is the first ascents with a scientific purpose."Gay-Lussac made an ascent in a hydrogen ballon with Biot on 24 August 1804. The primary object of the ascent was to see whether the magnetic intensity at theearth's surface decreased with an increase in altitude. The concluded that it was constant up to 4000 meters. They also carried long wires to test the electricity of different parts of the atmosphere. Another object was to collect a sample of air from a high altitude to compare its composition with that of air at ground level. Gay-Lussac made a second ascent on 16. September 1804 the paper offered but this time by himself in order to lessen the weight of the balloon and thus reach a greater high.He was able to repeat observations of pressure temperature and humidity and also make magnetic measurements. He had taken two evacuated flasks which he opened to collect samples of air when he had attained an altitude of over 6000 meters. His subsequent analysiss of these samples showed that the portion of oxygen was identical with that in ordinary air.

In the course of his investigations on the combining volumes of gases he had prepared gaseous hydrogen cyanide. This led him to the study of related compounds and in 1815 he published a paper "Recherches sur l'acide prussique" the paper offered wherein he announced the discovery of cyanogen and chlor-cyanogen and the composition of hydrocyanic acid. His demonstartion that hydrogen cyanide contains no oxygen added another oxygen-free acid to those already known hydrogen halides and sulfide and contributed to the overthrow of Lavoisier's oxygen theory of acids. Gay-Lussac found that the cyano radicalthe first orgianic radical clearly recognized could act as an element analogous to chlorine passing unchanged through various reactions.

This volume contains "the first paper on global warming" by Fourier pp. 136-167 Fourier didn't yet know what molecular mechanisms were trapping the heat. But in this 1824 paper he surmised that over a long period of time the amount of heat held in by the atmosphere could change altered by both the Earth's natural evolution and human activity. "Wöhler's analysis of cyanates appeared in 1824 the paper offered shortly after Liebig's analysis of fulminates. Gay-Lussac then editor of the 'Annales de Chimie' noted that the analysis of cyanic and fulminic acid were identical - the first case of isomerism. This incident brought Wöhler and Liebig together and there followed many years of collaboration in which the two studied the chemistry of benzaldehyde and numerous other compounds."

Thirdly on the metals of the earth; and Fourthly he makes a comparison between the antiphlogistic doctrine and a modified phlogistic hypothesis."Abstract. He further gives arguments for considering potassium and sodium which he discovered in 1808 as a element.""Gay-Lussac had a slight rivalry between himself and the creation scientist Sir Humphry Davy. Davy was chemically preparing Potassium and Sodium through an electrical current and this made Gay-Lussac and Thénard envious of his success. They too decided to perform the same task but they had no battery at their disposal as Davy had so they had to form another way to chemically prepare the two elements. In 1808 they used a red-hot iron fused to potash the water-soluble form of a manufactured salt containing potassium to perform this task a method that Davy admitted had its advantageous qualities. Gay-Lussac and Thénard were successful in preparing Potassium and continued to make a full analysis of its chemical properties and began to use it for their own experiments. In 1809 Davy performed the same task using it to reduce Boron in Boracic acid." </em> unknown
