1. Priestly shows patience because he has the will to continue experimenting with mercuric oxide. In
experimenting, we need patience to get the result or conclusion we want to see or learn.
2. Lavoisier wants to ponder more about when a substance burns and what will happen. Does it give
off something, or does it combine with something from the air?
3. If something from the air combines with a substance during burning
4. Then the mass will increase after burning.
5. Paragraph No. 5
6. Extra air likely rushed into the vessel since the air used up during the heating process left some
room for it to do so.
7. Paragraph No. 7
8. Lavoisier concluded that the oxygen gas created throughout the experiment procedure is
flammable material when they burn. The "Oxygen Theory of Burning," the subject of this
experiment, is now generally recognized as the explanation for burning.
9. Lavoisier has shown perseverance by not rushing the procedure and double-checking the first
findings. This characteristic is helpful in scientific research because it requires persistence to keep
doing what you are doing to achieve the result, outcome, or conclusion in your experiment when
trying to discover something new or conduct an investigation.
10. Qualitative observation is a subjective gathering of information that focuses more on differences
in quality than quantity. Quantitative observation, on the other hand, is an objective gathering of
knowledge that focuses on numbers or measurements while basing results on statistics and
numeric analyses.

Priestly used qualitative observations rather than Lavoisier because Priestly first observed that
unknown gas which he described as "perfect or active air," with his senses.
