Faraday’s earliest researches were in the field of chemistry, following the lead of Davy. A study of chlorine, which Faraday included in his researches, led to the discovery of two new chlorides of carbon. In a series of experiments he was successful in liquefying a number of common gases. As a chemist, Faraday discovered benzene, investigated the clathrate hydrate of chlorine, invented an early form of the bunsen burner and popularised terminology such as "electrode" and "ion". Faraday became the first Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal Institution, a lifetime position.
