   1781 
(1781-06): Experiments of Lavoisier, Laplace and Gaux on the construction of barometer with flat surface and on the expansion of mercury.
(1781-10-10): Study on fermentation of sugar. Liberation of gas.
(1781-11-16): Study of vaporisation of ether. The vaporisation is carried out over heated mercury; the drop in temperature of mercury is measured.
(1781-12): Solution of iron in nitric acid. Collects the nitrous air, precipitates the iron; crystallisation of salpêtre.
(1781-12): Experiment on heated iron. Heats the iron alon in a retort, no results; he heats steels, obtains an inflammable air which burns a blue flame (carbon monoxide). Following this, dissolution of iron in nitric acid.
(1781-12-08): Attempt to calculate the heat fusion of wax by mixing melted and solid wax. Same experiment on suet.
(1781-12-26): Resumes experiments with Laplace on heat and dilatation of metals.
