What “phlogiston” means
Wiktionary · Wikipediaphlogiston/flə(ʊ)ˈdʒɪstɒn/
- nounThe hypothetical fiery principle formerly assumed to be a necessary constituent of combustible bodies and to be given up by them in burning.
The phlogiston theory, a superseded scientific theory, postulated the existence of a fire-like element dubbed phlogiston contained within combustible bodies and released during combustion. The name comes from the Ancient Greek φλογιστόν phlogistón, from φλόξ phlóx (flame). The idea of a phlogistic substance was first proposed in 1669 by Johann Joachim Becher and later put together more formally in 1697 by Georg Ernst Stahl.
