   1784 
(1784): Brossard de Beaulieu paints a portrait of Lavoisier with a Leyden Jar. The portrait will be exhibited at the Salon of 1785 (at the presence of Lavoisier).
(1784-01-01) (1784-03-14): More calorimetric experiments with Laplace: heats of respiration, of combustion; specific heats. The related memoir is published in the Mémoires de chimie.
(1784-01-05): Second meeting of the Académie's commission on aerostatic machines, to which Meusnier (not yet a member of the Académie) was adimitted.9
(1784-01-24): At the Académie "M. Lavoisier a fait voir une machine destinée à employer l'air déphlogistiquée dans les expériences de chimie et à mesurer la quantité d'air qu'elle dépense et à la graduer à volonté." P-V, 1784, fol. 17.
(1784-01-31): Meusiner de la Place admitted to the Académie as adjoint géomètre.
(1784-03): Combustion of wax and charcoal. Respiration of a Guinea pig, weight of "acide carbonique" formed. Combustion of phosphorous.
(1784-03): Decomposition of water in an heated rifle barrel. "Il s'est produit une quantité d'air inflammable considérable."
(1784-03): Four men from the Faculté de médecine (Borie, Sallin, Darcet, Guillotin) appointed by the king to study animal magnetism. In early April five member of the Académie des Sciences are added (Franklin, de Bory, Le Roy, Bailly, Lavoisier).
(1784-03-01): Letter from Lavoisier to de Fourcroy, directeur du Génie à Versailles, requesting that Meusiner's leave be extended to allow him to complete his work for the commission on aerostatic machines.
(1784-03-01) (1784-03-19): Distillation of coal, examination of the air released.
(1784-03-03): At the Académie Lavoisier reads a memoir on the combination of nitrous air with respirable air. This memoir had been recorded on December 20, 1783. P-V, 1784, fol. 42.
(1784-03-20): At the Académie "MM. Meusiner et Lavoisier ont déposé tant à leur noms qu'à celui de leurs collègues un paquet caheté sur un fait nouveau pour etre ouvert le vendredi 2 avril." It was not opened until 24 April. P-V, 1784, fol. 71.
(1784-03-22): Second experiment on decomposition of water in a rifle barrel. "On a monté l'appareil à fare passer l'eau goutte à goutte dans un canon de fusil incandescent." That day they prepared 82 pints of hydrogen.
(1784-03-25): Decomposition of oil of turpentine by strong heating.
(1784-03-27): Experiments at the hôtel des Monnaies: incandescent gold, silver, copper. Fail to decompose water. Wxplosion with melted tin and antimony poured into water.
(1784-03-29): In the presence of the entire aerostatic commission experiment on the decomposition of water by iron are repeated.
(1784-04-01): Inflammable air produced from alcohol dripping into an incandescent iron tube.
(1784-04-02): Letter from the Baron de Breteuil to Lavoisier announcing his appointement to the commission on Mesmer's animal magnetism.
(1784-04-06): Further experiments on obtaining inflammable air by decomposition of water. Weight ratio of hydrogen and oxygen in water calculated to the 1:10 or 1:5.
(1784-04-08): Condorcet intials revised version of the Mémoire sur un moyen d'augmenter considérablement l'action di feu.
(1784-04-10): Decomposition of water by incandescent charcoal.
(1784-04-14): Decomposition of water by iron: in a rifle barrel lined with copper and enclosing an iron spiral. Following three experiments of March 29, April 10 and 14 are long mathematical discussions on the composition of water, composition of carbon d
(1784-04-21): Meusiner reads a memoir on decomposition of water, work done with Lavoisier, designed to prove that water is not a simple substance and that there are several ways to obtain inflammable air from it.
(1784-04-26) (1784-06): Testing of fabrics for aerostatic balloons.
(1784-05): Experiments on quantification of oxygen and hydrogen in water.
