Antoine Lavoisier is from Paris, France and is said to be the father of modern Chemistry. At the age of 28 he got into the largest science society in France. This goes to show that he was extremely good at what he did and people took notice. The topic that is did the most work in was the Law of Conservation of Mass. He was from a noble family like a lot of the other philosophers in the atomic timeline. A significant fact about the time that he was alive was that it was during the French Revolution which means he had a big distraction when he was doing his work. He is known for writing the first list of element and helped with the start of the metric system. Both of the creations that he was apart of are still alive and well today and are very successful.**

Charles was from Augouleme, France and came from a family where both is mother and he father were wealthy. He is best known for the SI Unit names after his "C" and the Coulomb Law. The Coulomb law was equation describing the electrostatic force between electric charges. In this study he gave better knowledge on the elements and their charges. From his study of the charges he branched off from this topic an discovered ideas like torsion and stability.**

Joseph Black as born in Bordeaux, France and died in Edinburgh, Scotland. He was Scottish but just was in France at the time of his birth. He was one of fifteen children in his family and his father did not like what he was doing in college because he was going to an arts school so he took him out of school. The his father put him in college for medicine and this is where his talents were brought out. He worked with carbon dioxide and quantitative methods. His studies led to movements in the fusion of heat and thermodynamics. This helped the steam engines and we can personally see this in he ship that he have here at school which is powered by steam engines.**
