Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RHY-RON
RICHTER, JEREMIAS BENJAMIN (17621807) , German chemist, was born at Hirschberg in Silesia on the loth of
March
  1762, became a mining official at Breslau in 1794, and in 1800 was appointed assessor to the department of mines and chemist to the royal
porcelain
  factory at Berlin, where he died on the 4th of April 1807. To him belongs the merit of carrying, out Some of the earliest determinations of the quantities by
weight
  in which acids saturate bases and bases acids, and of arriving at the conception that those amounts of different bases which can saturate the same quantity of a particular acid are equivalent to each other. He was thus led to conclude that
chemistry
  is a branch of applied mathematics and to endeavour to trace a law according to which the quantities of different bases required to saturate a given acid formed an arithmetical, and the quantities of acids saturating a given base a geometrical, progression. His results were published in his Anfangsgrunden der Stochiometrie oder Messkunst chemischer Elemente (1792-94), and Ober die neueren Gegenstdnde in der Chemie (179218o2), but it was
long
  before they were properly appreciated, or he himself was accorded due credit for them. This was partly because some of his
work
  was wrongly ascribed to C. F. Wenzel by
Berzelius
  through 'a mistake which was only corrected in 1841 by Germain Henri Hess (18o2-1850), professor of
chemistry
  at St
Petersburg
 , and author of " the
laws
  of constant heat-sums and of thermoneutrality" (see TH1sRMOCnEMISTRY).
