Chemical Genealogy Work Area - O

This page is a work area in which information about every person in the MSU Chemical Genealogy charts is gathered and evaluated. The references to several chemical genealogy sources, including those available on the WWW in addition to reference books, are listed on the previous page.

The last line for each individual, in bold font and labeled "display:", shows the text to be displayed on the MSU Chemistry genealogy web pages for the individual.

This page will always be a work in progress. Please let us know of any errors, or additional opinions or evidence, by e-mailing us at: .

 - We (after McCarty) show: W. Ostwald (1855-1932) ( ) Schmidt
 - Mainz shows: Ostwald, Friedrich Wilhelm|1853-1932|PhD|1878|Dorpat|Schmidt
     Mainz includes a "FOOTNOTE: Lemberg (who was Schmidt's principal assistant)
       instructed Ostwald during his stay in Dorpat.  Lemberg taught Ostwald to
       pay close attention to problems in chemical equilibrium, mass action, and
       reaction velocity: all themes of Ostwald's later work."
 - Abbott shows: Ostwald, Friedrich Wilhelm (1853-1932) ... in 1872 went to the
     University of Dorpat (Tartu) in Estonia to study chemistry under Carl
     Schmidt and Johann Lemberg.  He also studied physics under Arthur von
     Oettingen, and was awarded his PhD in 1878."
 - DisAbs has no matching entry for: Ostwald, Friedrich
 - Mathematics does not include: Ostwald, F
 - NDSU shows: Friedrich Wiulhelm Ostwald|PhD|Dorpat|1878|C. Schmidt
 - NotreD shows: Frederich Wilhelm Ostwald||Dorpat (Latvia)|1878|Carl Schmidt
 - SciWorld shows: Ostwald, Wilhelm (1853-1932)  [under construction] 
     Russian-German chemist who is considered one of the principle founders of
     physical chemistry. He translated Gibbs's works into German in 1892, and
     founded the first journal of physical chemistry with van't Hoff. He
     presented the modern view of catalysis, namely that catalysts do not alter
     the reaction mechanism, but merely lower the reaction barrier, for which he
     was awarded to Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1909. He developed a theory of
     solutions based on ionic dissociation and an analogy between gases and
     chemical solutions similar to Arrhenius's. He also believed that energy was
     the single real entity in nature."
