Who is referred to as “the father of modern chemistry”
a. andreas vesalius
c. robert boyle
b. william harvey
d. antonine lavoise

The correct answer is D. Antonine lavoise

Explanation

Antonine Lavoisier, was born in Paris in 1743 and died in 1794. He was a famous French chemist, father of modern chemistry. He successfully undertook the work of interpreting and systematizing the scattered knowledge of chemistry. He also developed a rigorous methodology of quantitative measurement that allowed him to definitively overcome the various hypotheses inherited from alchemy, establishing fundamental concepts and principles that helped to make chemistry a new science.

Other of his contributions was the distinction between elements (substances not decomposable by chemical processes) and compounds (substances composed of elements). As well as the definitive formulation of the law of conservation of matter (Lavoisier Law), which states that the amount of matter remains constant in the course of a chemical reaction. Therefore, Antonine Lavoisier is considered as the father of modern chemistry. So, the correct answer is D. Antonine Lavoise.

answer: e.   sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions or accepts ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

> b takes place in the gas phase in an isothermal tubular reactor. the feed is one mole of a per one mole of c, an inert. the entering temperature and pressure are 427°c and 10 atm, respectively. the gas constant r = 0.08206 atm · l/mol · k.
