Mohr, Karl Friedrich

    0.01 sec.

Mohr, Karl Friedrich (1806–1879)

German physicist. He made notable innovations in chemical apparatus, including the invention of what is now known as the Liebig condenser and the cork borer.

In 1870 he claimed that he had been the first to enunciate the principle of what is now called the conservation of energy, in his paper Ansichten über die Natur der Warme/Views on the Nature of Heat (1837). The claim has not been taken seriously.
