Robert Bunsen ~ Chemist

Chemist Robert Bunsen (Nationality German) best known for his invention of the improved flame device : Bunsen burner. 

         Robert Wilhelm Bernhard Bunsen's contributions to science extend far beyond this one invention, Robert developed a number of other common laboratory instruments, a new device and process for analyzed the elemental constituents of chemicals called spectroscopy. 

 he is made an instructor at the university; Robert stay there was brief, however, and his taught at other German universities until 1852, when he settled into a professorship at University of Heidelberg. During the years before Heidelberg, Bunsen's research efforts were concentrated in the field of organic chemistry, particularly in the study of arsenic and its compounds. Though his studied

        To properly analyze the elements, he constructed a sensitive ice calorimeter, measuring the volume of melted ice, rather than the mass.at 1851, while visiting the University at Breslau, Bunsen developed a working friendship at Gustav Kirchhoff, and an instructor at Breslau. Kirchhoff shared his interest in the properties of chemicals, in 1854 Bunsen persuaded Kirchhoff to move to the University of Heidelberg. Together, began research on the spectral emission of elements.In their experiments, an element was superheated ..
