Oxygen from Green Leaves under Water in Sunshine (Ingenhousz 1779)
Living leaves make oxygen in light. Put fresh leaves in a clear jar of water, stand it upside down in a tub of water in the sun, and the bubbles that rise from the leaves collect at the top of the jar.
Result: 'dephlogisticated air' (oxygen), more or less pure according to the plant and the clearness of the day. A candle flame grows larger and dazzling in it.

Put it in the sun
Set it at once in the open air, best in the sunshine. Bubbles form on the leaves, grow, break away and gather at the top of the jar, until the leaves are spent. Light does it, not warmth: by the fire, in shade or in a warm room without sun the air is bad.
