Originally a physicist, but often referred to as a chemist, Arrhenius was one of the founders of the science of physical chemistry.
Feb 19, 2019 · Svante Arrhenius, awarded with the Nobel prize, discovered at the end of the 19th century that CO2 emissions caused an increase in the planet's temperature.
Svante Arrhenius (born February 19, 1859, Vik, Sweden—died October 2, 1927, Stockholm) was a Swedish physicist and physical chemist known for his theory of electrolytic dissociation and his model of the greenhouse effect. In 1903, he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry.
The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1903 was awarded to Svante August Arrhenius "in recognition of the extraordinary services he has rendered to the advancement of chemistry by his electrolytic theory of dissociation"
Svante August Arrhenius. The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1903. Born: 19 February 1859, Vik, Sweden. Died: 2 October 1927, Stockholm, Sweden. Affiliation at the time of the award: Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden.
Mar 28, 2023 · His groundbreaking contributions to the field earned Svante Arrhenius the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1903, making him the first person from Sweden to receive this prestigious award. He is best known for his work on the theory of electrolytic dissociation, activation energy, and the pioneering theory of global warming.
In 1903 Svante August Arrhenius (1859–1927) received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his electrolytic theory of dissociation, which states that molecules of acids, bases, and salts dissociate into ions when dissolved in water.
Svante Arrhenius, (born Feb. 19, 1859, Vik, Swed.—died Oct. 2, 1927, Stockholm), Swedish physical chemist. His theories on dissociation of substances in solution into electrolytes or ions, first published in 1884 as his Ph.D. thesis, were initially met with skepticism, but increasing recognition abroad gradually won over the opposition in Sweden.
Svante Arrhenius was born in Vik, Sweden, and became the first native of that country to win the Nobel Prize. The award for chemistry was bestowed to him in honor of his theory of electrolytic dissociation, though in its incipient form, which appeared in his doctoral dissertation, the theory was poorly received by his professors.
