Claude-Louis Berthollet
Claude Louis Berthollet (born December 9, 1748 , in Talloires, near Annecy, France, died November 6, 1822 in Arcueil) was a French chemist.
Berthollet, along with Antoine Lavoisier and others, devised a chemical nomenclature, or a system of names, which serves as the basis of the modern system of naming chemical compounds. He also carried out research into dyes and bleaches (introducing the use of chlorine as a bleach) and determined the composition of ammonia.
