Volume 10 missing. Contemporary full brown calf spines smooth with gilt fillets brown morocco lettering-piece and green morocco numbering-piece blind-ruled border to covers red speckled edges bookplate of P. H. Chavoix to front pastedown of each volume. Volumes 1 and 11 numbered in Roman rather than Arabic numerals. Overall discreet restorations corners rubbed occasional light foxing and browning some worming to bindings not affecting text head and tail of headcaps worn on volumes 7 13 14 and 15. The complete first series of the Annales de chimie published between 1789 and 1815 runs to 96 volumes. From 1793 to 1797 publication was suspended following the arrest of Antoine Lavoisier the journal's treasurer and in Édouard Grimaux's words its ""true director."" The opening run here contains nearly all the issues produced under the direction of and with contributions from the chemists Antoine de Lavoisier and Baron Philippe Frédéric de Dietrich. Both were condemned to the guillotine during the Reign of Terror in 1794 and 1793 respectively. This set is further illustrated with 12 scientific plates including two by the engraver Sellier as well as a map of the county of Bigorre. The majority of the articles and essays are first editions written by distinguished French and foreign chemists and physicists who helped disseminate ""The New Chemistry"": in order of appearance Louis-Bernard Guyton de Morveau Antoine de Lavoisier Gaspard Monge Claude-Louis Berthollet Anne-François Fourcroy Philippe-Frédéric de Dietrich Jean Henri Hassenfratz Pierre-Auguste Adet Jean-Antoine Chaptal Martin Heinrich Klaproth Johann Georg Albrecht Höpfner Christoph Girtanner Johann Christian Wiegleb Jacques-Anselme Dorthes Johann Friedrich Westrumb Armand Seguin Henry Cavendish William Austin Martin van Marum l'abbé René Just Haüy Peter Jacob Hjelm Jan Ingenhousz Isaac Milner Johan Gadolin James Watt Lorenz Florenz Friedrich von Crell Charles Blagden Jean Senebier Jean d'Arcet William Higgins Nicolas-Louis Vauquelin Nicolas Joseph Thiéry de Ménonville Dom Michel Rubin de Celis Jacques Louis Schurer Augustin-François de Silvestre l'abbé Claude Chappe Antoine Augustin Parmentier Nicolas Deyeux Bertrand Pelletier Charles-Augustin Coulomb Joseph Priestley Richard Kirwan Jean André de Luc Jean-François Clouet chevalier Marsilio Landriani Jean-Noël Hallé François Pierre Nicolas Gillet de Laumont Georges-Charles Bartholdi Alexandre Brongniart Jean-Michel Haussmann Henri Reboul François René Curaudau Thomas Henry Jean-Anthyme Margueron Nicolas Leblanc Johann Rudolph Deiman Pieter Nieuwland Pierre de Ribaucourt Pissis fils Jean-Baptiste Van Mons ou encore Louis François Antoine Arbogast.

The titles have undergone further changes up to the present day.

"Lavoisier's earliest chemical investigation his study of gypsum was mineralogical in character; begun in the autumn of 1764 it was intended as the first paper in a series devoted to the analysis of mineral substances. 'I have tried to copy nature' Lavoisier wrote. 'Water this almost universal solvent. is the chief agent she employs; it is the one I have adopted in my work.'. Analysis convinced him that this gypsum was a neutral salt a compound of vitriolic sulfuric acid and a calcareous or chalky base. He further demonstrated that gypsum when transformed by strong heating into plaster of Paris gives off a vapor which he showed to be oure water making up about a quarter of the weight of gypsum. This first paper which in so many respects embodies the quantitative methods Lavoisier was to employ in his later work had in fact been anticipated by others." DSB.

Pp. 341-357. Clean and fine. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of Lavoisier's FIRST PUBLISHED CHEMICAL PAPER introducing quantitative methods in chemistry and in which he for the first time brought a hydrometer in use to measure the specific gravities of components of a chemical solutions. Lavoisier defended the originality of his approach in the following words: "It is to the art of combination that the knowledge of the specific gravities of fluids can bring most light. This aspect of chemistry is much less advanced than we thought we possess barely the rudiments of it." "This first paper which in so many respects embodies the quantitative methods Lavoisier was to employ in his later work had in fact been largely anticipated by others notably by Marggraf who had already discovered the composition of gypsum and shown that it contained water phlegm. Yet Lavoisier’s work was more through; and his paper his first contribution to the Academy of Sciences read to the Academy on 25 February 1765 appeared in 1768. The paper offered. - Lavoisier’s earliest chemical investigation his study of gypsum was mineralogical in character; begun in the autumn of 1764 it was intended as the first paper in a series devoted to the analysis of mineral substances. This systematic inventory was to be carried out not by the method of J. H. Pott "who exposed minerals to the action of fire" but by reactions in solution by the "wet way." "I have tried to copy nature" Lavoisier wrote. "Water this almost universal solvent "is the cheif agent she employs; it is also the one I have adopted in my work." Using a hydrometer he determined with the care the solubility of different samples of gypsum samples of selenite or lapis specularis some supplied by Guettard and Rouelle. He made similar measurements with calcined gypsumplaster of paris. Analysis convinced him that this gypsum was a neutral salt a compound of vitriolic sulfuric acid and a calcareous or chalky base. Not content with having shown by analysis the composition of the gypsum Lavoisier completed his proof by a synthesis following as he said the way that nature had formed the gypsum. He further demonstrated that gypsum when transformed by strong heating into plaster of Paris gives off a vapor which he showed to be pure water making up about a quarter of the weight of gypsum. Conversely when plaster of Paris is mixed with water and turns into a solid mass it avidly combines with water. Using the expression first coined by Rouelle he called this the "water of crystallization." DSB.Partington III pp. 378-79. - </em> unknown
