who discovered oxygen?..

Answer / geetanjali

Oxygen was independently discovered by Carl Wilhelm
Scheele, in Uppsala, in 1773 or earlier, and Joseph
Priestley in Wiltshire, in 1774, but Priestley is often
given priority because his publication came out in print
first. The name oxygen was coined in 1777 by Antoine
Lavoisier,whose experiments with oxygen helped to discredit
the then-popular phlogiston theory of combustion and
corrosion.
