18th century chemical affinity table
18th century chemical affinity table. Historical chart describing the tendency of different substances to combine with each other. This was the first ever affinity table, published in 1718 by the French chemist Etienne Francois Geoffroy (1672-1731). Each substance is represented by a different symbol. At the top of each column is a substance (header) with which all those below can combine. Each row below the header is ranked by degrees of affinity. A key to the symbols used can be seen at the bottom

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an invaluable piece of scientific history - the 18th century chemical affinity table. Published in 1718 by the esteemed French chemist Etienne Francois Geoffroy, this chart revolutionized our understanding of chemical reactions and tendencies. The table is a visual representation of different substances and their inclination to combine with one another. Each substance is denoted by a unique symbol, making it easier to comprehend the complex relationships between elements. At the top of each column lies a header substance, indicating all those below that can potentially form compounds with it. What sets this affinity table apart is its ranking system based on degrees of affinity. The rows beneath each header are meticulously arranged according to how strongly they react or bond with the corresponding substance above them. This hierarchical arrangement provides scientists with valuable insights into various chemical reactions. To aid comprehension, a key explaining the symbols used can be found at the bottom of this historical diagram. It serves as a guide for deciphering the intricate web of connections depicted within. As we delve into this remarkable artifact from centuries past, we gain not only an appreciation for Geoffroy's groundbreaking work but also insight into how chemistry evolved over time. This photograph preserves an essential chapter in both scientific and human progress, reminding us of our enduring quest to unravel nature's mysteries through observation and experimentation.
