Robert Bunsen.Robert Wilhelm Eberhard (30 March 1811 – 16 August 1899) was a German chemist. He investigated emission spectra of heated elements, and with Gustav Kirchhoff discovered caesium (in 1860) and rubidium (in 1861).It’s 200 years to the day since the birth of Robert Bunsen, the German chemist famous for inventing the ubiquitous Bunsen burner.But Bunsen’s scientific legacy is far, far more important than that – he was one of the most ingenious chemists of the 19th century, whose work led to the discovery of a new element, an antidote for arsenic poisoning and would one day provide clues to the constituents of stars.
Anyone else getting high school chemistry flashbacks while watching the home page of Google? It is good, because today’s Google Doodle was created in celebration of what his 200-anniversary of Robert Wilhelm Eberhard Bunsen would have been.Gustav BUNSEN and Kirchhoff a Prism, a process that has been done for the development of a prototype of modern spectroscopes and new in the field of science was that parts of its constituent wavelengths. They found that each element to produce a distinctive mixture of wavelengths, which can be identified as the presence of fingerprints.
