Analytical balance of D.I. Mendeleev
In 1737, Leonhard Euler, being engaged in the study of the weight measuring equipment, formulated the rule that was considered an axiom for more than a century: the longer the weighing beam is, the more accurate the readings of the balance are. The Russian scientist D.I. Mendeleev had the chance to refute that statement. For scientific experiments, he needed the balance, the accuracy of which had to surpass the accuracy of any devices existing at that time.
