EQUIPPING CLASSROOMS OF CHEMISTRY IN THE RUSSIAN EMPIRE IN XIX - EARLY XX CENTURIES

The first textbooks in Russia were established by Russian scientists who had got their ed-ucation in European universities. A. Karamyshev - a student of Carl Linnaeus in Uppsala Uni-versity, A. Scherer, in Jena, F. Gize in Berlin and Vienna, H. Hess - a student of G. Ozan - the University of Dorpat (Russian, but not Russian), who improved then his skills at the J. Berzelius. Thus, it is possible to admit that the Russian Empire had many subsequent methodological ad-vances in the field of chemistry due to the European education obtained by Russian chemists, who stood at its origins. In the framework of the national scientific-practical conferences of the Republic of Lith-uania, we have already mentioned the methodological issues of our common heritage - history, techniques of chemistry in the Russian Empire, to its roots since M.V. Lomonosov, V.M. Severgin, Andrzej Sniadeckis. We have successfully examined the following topics of the history of chemistry teaching methods starting from the late eighteenth century: issues and challenges, which were decided by the students, realists, and cadets, of individual formulas and reaction equations, the chemical experiments in various educational institutions of the Russian Empire. Approaching the end of this research, we offer the subject dealing with the chemical equipment of the classrooms of that time to the reader. We can theoretically project our future if we know our past. Knowledge of history of your subject broadens the mind of the teacher as knowledge of the foreign language.
