Boguski served as an assistant in St. Petersburg to the Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev. From 1895 Boguski was a professor at Warsaw's Wawelberg and Rotwand School, and from 1920 at the Warsaw Polytechnic. He carried out pioneering studies in chemical kinetics and formulated "Boguski's rule" concerning the speed of dissolution of solids in liquids. It was at a laboratory run by Boguski in the Museum of Industry and Agriculture at Krakowskie Przedmieście 66 in Warsaw that his cousin Maria Skłodowska (Marie Curie), future investigator of radioactivity and future double Nobel laureate, in 1890–91 began her practical scientific training. During World War I, Boguski studied explosives and poisons with military applications. He was also a popularizer of science.
