Description
Candle in a bell jar. The candle has extinguished, showing that the oxygen inside the jar has been used up. This is a recreation of an experiment by Joseph Priestley (1733-1804). Although Priestley's explanation of the phenomenon was incorrect he did later manage to isolate oxygen from air.
