Hermann Franz Moritz Kopp (30 October 1817 – 20 February 1892) was a German chemist, best known for his studies on the specific volumes of organic compounds and on the history of chemistry.[1][2][3]

Kopp was born and grew up in the town of Hanau, in the Electorate of Hesse (central Germany), where his father was a doctor and a teacher at the Gymnasium.[1][2] He entered the University of Heidelberg in 1835, but soon switched to the University of Marburg, from where he graduated in 1838 with a thesis on "a way to calculate the density of oxides".[Note 1]
