    LAS No. 7 Contribution of Alchemists To Chemistry

    Uploaded by

    Warren Olemberio
    Alchemists made important contributions to the development of chemistry. They combined chemistry with metalwork and philosophy in an attempt to find the elixir of life, create the philosopher's stone, and understand the relationship between humans and the cosmos. Key figures like Jabir ibn Hayyan, Paracelsus, and Robert Boyle studied the elements that make up matter and how they can be transformed, laying the foundations for modern chemistry. By the late 18th century, chemistry had emerged as a separate field of scientific study.

    CONCEPT NOTES
    Alchemy played an important role in the evolution of modern science. It was
    a philosophical and spiritual field of study that combine chemistry with metalwork.
    Its goal were to: (1) find the elixir of life (2) find or make the substance called
    the “philosopher’s stone”, (3) discover the relationship of humans to the cosmos
    and use that understanding to improve the human spirit.
    Development of Alchemy
     In the East, in India and China, Alchemy started before the Common Era
    (CE). It began with meditation and medicine to purify the spirit and body.
     In the West, alchemy evolved from Egyptian metallurgy.
     Aristotle (384-322BCE) believed all matter is made of the four elements.
     Jabir ibn Hayyan believed that the key difference between metals was how
    much mercury and sulphur they contained.
     Paracelsus proposed that a balance of mercury, sulfur, and salt was
    necessary to maintain health.
     Robert Boyle (1662) studied the transmutation of elements through
    changing gold into mercury by means of “quicksilver”.
     Late 18th century, the field of chemistry had fully separated from
    traditional alchemy. Antoine Lavoisier wrote his first true chemistry book
    and Dmitri Mendeleev organize all elements in the periodic table.
