Next Step

You've done a great job so far. Your next step is to print out a copy of the original paper and start reading it. It may prove more challenging than you think so you may want to keep a list of questions to ask, posting them here on the blog. I will be interested to read what you discover and what questions you ask.

So far so good...

I would like for you to find out something about the phlogiston theory and how Lavoisier's work affected that theory. You've done a very thorough job of researching so far. Just so we are clear, find out what you can about phlogiston and how that influenced scientific thinking, especially around Laviosier's time. Then decide whether you believe that Lavoisier's work supported or refuted that theory. Be sure to post what you find and your sources on the internet as well. If you can find the sources you used for your earlier responses, you need to cite those too. You will need all of this information before this project is over.
