Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier (26 Ogos 1743 – 8 Mei 1794) adalah seorang ahli kimia Perancis yang merupakan orang pertama untuk mengelaskan unsur-unsur mengikut kumpulan tertentu. Beliau juga merupakan orang yang memberikan nama kepada oksigen pada tahun 1774. Perkataan "oksigen" terdiri daripada dua perkataan bahasa Yunani, oxus (asid) dan gennan (menghasilkan).

Pada tahun 1789, Antoine Lavoisier menyusun unsur-unsur, cahaya, haba, dan beberapa sebatian, ke dalam suatu jadual mengikut kumpulan.

Dalam jadual itu, unsur-unsur dikelaskan kepada logam dan bukan logam. Namun begitu, jadual itu mengandungi banyak perkara yang tidak betul kerana cahaya, haba, dan beberapa sebatian yang belum dapat diuraikan pada ketika itu seperti kapur, silika, alumina, barita dan magnesia juga dimasukkan dalam jadual itu.

Menurut Antoine Lavoisier, unsur-unsur pada ketika itu dapat dibahagi kepada empat kumpulan iaitu:

• Oksigen
• Nitrogen
• Hidrogen
• Cahaya
• Haba

• Sulfur
• Fosforus
• Karbon
• Klorin
• Fluorin

• Arsenik
• Bismut
• Kobalt
• Plumbum
• Zink
• Nikel
• Stanum
• Argentum

• Kapur
• Silika
• Alumina
• Barita
• Magnesia

Sumbangan asas Lavoisier terhadap kimia adalah hasil daripada usaha sedar untuk memenuhi semua uji kaji ke dalam rangka teori tunggal. Beliau menubuhkan penggunaan yang konsisten keseimbangan kimia, oksigen digunakan menumbangkan teori flogiston, dan membangunkan sistem baru tatanama kimia yang diadakan oksigen yang merupakan unsur penting dalam semua asid (yang kemudian ternyata menjadi salah). Lavoisier juga melakukan penyelidikan awal dalam kimia fizikal dan termodinamik dalam eksperimen bersama dengan Laplace. Mereka menggunakan kalorimeter untuk menganggarkan haba dibebaskan setiap unit karbon dioksida dihasilkan, akhirnya mendapati nisbah yang sama untuk api dan haiwan, yang menunjukkan bahawa haiwan menghasilkan tenaga dengan sejenis tindak balas pembakaran.
