The first indications that not all the air, but only its "active" part supports combustion, were found in Chinese manuscripts of the 8th century. Much later, Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) considered air as a mixture of two gases, only one of which is consumed during combustion and breathing. The final discovery of the two main constituent parts of air - nitrogen and oxygen, which made an era in science, took place only at the end of the 18th century. Oxygen was obtained almost simultaneously by K. Scheele (1769-70) and J. Priestley (1774). Since Oxygen is a constituent of acids, Lavoisier called it oxygene, meaning "acid-generating". </div>
