   1773 
(1773-05): A paper by Rouelle le jeune appears in the Journal de Médecine: "Observations sur l'air fixe et sur ses effets dans les eaux minérales".
(1773-05-04): Lavoisier attempts to heat charcoal and vitriolic acid with burning glass. Also phosphorous under a layer of alcohol
(1773-05-05): Opening in presence of the Académie of the sealed note of the previous November. "J'ai ouver en présence de l'Académie le dépot No. 153 fait par M. Lavoisier le 2 Nbre 1772 et j'ai paraphé son écrit pour lui conserver la date." P-V, 1773, 1
(1773-05-06): Quantitative experiment, dissolution of iron by nitric acid
(1773-05-07): Apparatus for preparation and manipulation of carbon dioxide. Evidently testing Bucquet's experiments for latter's name is mentioned
(1773-05-10): More work on fixed air. Expresses confusion at difference between air fixed in alkalis and in metals. Mention of limewater test.
(1773-05-10) (1773-05-20): Experiments on fixed air and volatile alkalis, on lime (chaux) etc.
(1773-05-13): Desiccation of nitre and chalk "eguilles" du nitre. Does chalk calcined at low temperature tak up fixed air)
(1773-05-16): Fragmentary experiments on fermentations pursued through July. Collection of gas given off. Experiments and wheat flour and on wine, records gas absorbed.
(1773-05-22): Detonation of nitre and sulphur, air produced extinguishes flame
(1773-05-23) (1773-05-24): Reduction of minium by carbon (charcoal). Study of gas produced
(1773-05-27): Ammonia produced by reaction with lime. Also experiment on fluminating gold
(1773-06-04) (1773-06-19): Experiment to determine whether lime gives something to soda as Meyer believes, or removes something from it according to the English thesis. Reaction of dried, slaked lime on sodium carbonate
(1773-06-12): Lavoisier reports on Bucquet's memoir on fixed air, discussing work of Black and Priestley. Lavoisier uses here the same quotation from Stahl encountered in the Opuscules. P-V-, 1773, 133-136
(1773-06-19): Instruments submitted by Magellan to the Académie. P-V, 1773, 139b
(1773-06-19): Experiment on the air produced by dissolving chalk in nitric acid. Incorrectly concludes its density same as that of common air.
(1773-06-22): Letter of Franklin to Le Roy in reply to a lost letter of Le Roy describing Lavoisier's experiment. Franklin writes: "I should like to hear how M. Lavoisier's doctrine supports itself, as I suppose it will be controverted."
(1773-06-27): Combustion of phosphorus under a "cloche à eau". On July 1 he examines this air which does not seem to contain carbon dioxide.
(1773-06-28): Combustion of minium by charcoal. Performs a metallic reduction for M. de Trudaine (obviously of minium and charcoal).
(1773-06-30): Combustion of phosphorous over mercury with a burning glass. "Il aurait été bien inéressant de rassembler cet acide dans cet état pour le peser et avoir l'augmentation du poids pour voir si elle était proportionelle à l'absorption." Difficu
(1773-06-30): Experiments on lime (chaux) and fixed air
(1773-07-01): Air in which he burned phosphorous on June 27 extinguishes a candle, does not asphyxiate a bird, does not make lime water turbid. The error on bird passed into published Opuscules.
(1773-07-01) (1773-07-03): Experiments on sodium carbonate and air given off.
(1773-07-03): At the Académie: "M. Lavoisier a continué sa lecture." Concerns the second part of the Opuscules. The reading continues the 17 and 31 July. P-V, 1773, 145.
(1773-07-14): Dissolution of mercury by nitric acid, then precipitation by chalk (craie), lime (chaux), sodium carbonate and hydroxide (soude, carbonate et alcali); then the same experiment carried out on a solution of iron in nitric acid
