This chemist put together a short list of elements in his Elementary Treatise on Chemistry, considered to be the (*) first modern chemistry textbook.
This scientist packed a calorimeter full of ice and observed that the combustion of carbon melted less ice than the body heat produced by a guinea pig. In another experiment, this scientist collected the same amount of carbon dioxide from a sample of carbon and a sample of diamonds, proving that they were one and the same. This chemist put together a short list of elements in his Elementary Treatise on Chemistry, considered to be the (*) first modern chemistry textbook. This scientist went a step further than Joseph Priestley by showing that nothing new was produced after combustion, putting the final nail in the phlogiston theory. For 10 points, name this French "father of modern chemistry" who discovered the conservation of mass and named oxygen and hydrogen.
