History of Chemistry
• 600 B.C. • highlights extraction and working of metals.
Egyptians extracted copper, gold, silver and lead from their ores and work on brass and bronze.
• dyeing and alcoholic beverages production• extraction of oils and alkaloid from plants
History of Chemistry
• 600 - 200 B.C.• highlights the Greeks curiosity, intellect and
vigorous imagination. • Original ideas and many fundamental scientific
problems was recognized by the philosophers of Ancient Greece.
• Democritus, Aristotle and Leucippus are among those Greek philosophers.

Fifth Element makes up the celestial bodies
Gold is the perfect metal.All other metals are less perfect.
The fifth element is so divine that it can turn the lesser (more base) metals into gold.
Elixir of life (a fountain of youth)

Chinese ideasAll matters constitute of 5 elements
MetalWoodWaterFireEarth
"Different combinations of earth, metal, wood, water and fire form everything in the world."
Chinese ideas"Water corresponds to moisture and the direction
of down.” “Fire corresponds to blaze and the direction of
up.”“Wood is curvy or straight in nature.” “Metal is unstable under fire.” “Earth is necessary for agriculture.” “Water becomes salty when travelling down.”
Chinese ideas“Fire becomes bitter when blazing
upward.” “Wood may turn acid when it changes
shape.” “Metal may turn bitter when it becomes
unstable.” “Earth may turn sweet when used in
agriculture."
History of Chemistry
• 400 - 1650 • highlights the rise and spread of alchemy, the pretended
art of changing baser metal into gold. • the quest for the miraculous “philosopher stone”• many useful apparatus were perfected• large number of new and important substances were
prepared/discovered• new techniques developed
History of Chemistry
• 1400 - 1750 • highlights the development of systematic metallurgy by Georg
Bauer• medicinal application and preparation of remedies and drugs by
Paracelsus• Roger Bacon stressed competent knowledge through
experimentation• Francis Bacon exposed the fallibility of Aristotle’s doctrines• relationship between pressure and volume of gases was measured
by Robert Boyle
History of Chemistry
• 1700 - 1777 B.C.• Georg Stahl suggested that all combustible
substances contained a “fiery principle”, phlogiston, which escaped as flame when heated
• oxygen gas was discovered by Joseph Priestley• quantitative and qualitative analysis improved
greatly by Joseph Black and Olaf Bergman
Who’s Next? Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794) overthrow completely the
phlogiston theory and provided explanation of combustion.
Joseph Proust (1754-1826) showed that a given compound always contains exactly the same proportion of elements by weight.
John Dalton (1766-1844) postulated that the fundamental differences among atoms are their masses.
History of Chemistry
Early Greek Ideas on Matter
1. Democritus proposed the “atomos” which means “cannot be cut” as a building block of all matter (2,500 yrs ago)
2. Aristotle proposed that matter is made of the four elements- earth, air, water and fire (2,400 yrs ago)
History of ChemistryDemocritus proposed the “atomos” which means “cannot be cut” as a building block of all matter (2,500 yrs ago).
His theory was ignored. It was only until the 20th century (1900s) that the concept of the atom was accepted by all scientists.
History of ChemistryAristotle proposed that matter is made of the four elements- earth, air, water and fire (2,400 yrs ago).
It was even believed that a chemist can make gold from any matter by finding the right mix of earth, air, water and fire.
His idea became more popular than Democritus’ idea of the atomos.
History of ChemistryEastern Alchemy
1. The Greeks passed on their knowledge to the Arabians who pursued alchemy (the ancient version of chemistry)
2. Alchemy is the study of:a. Transmuting base metals into gold and
silver (the philosopher’s stone)b. Discovering the universal cure for diseasec. Discovering immortality
History of ChemistryAlchemy is the study of:
a. Transmuting base metals into gold and silver (the philosopher’s stone)
b. Discovering the universal cure for disease
c. Discovering immortality
History of ChemistryAlchemy among the Arabs
1. Ar-Razi (1,100 yrs ago) is considered as one of the Fathers of Medicine.
2. Avicenna (1,000 yrs ago) wrote one of the most famous books in medicine (Al-Qanoon fittib: the Cannon of Medicine)
3. Arabian alchemists first practiced the scientific method and so laid the foundation for chemistry.
History of Chemistry
Arabian physician-alchemists first practiced the scientific method and so laid the foundation for chemistry.
History of ChemistryEarly Western Alchemy
1. Alchemical knowledge was transferred to Europe through an English Franciscan friar named Roger Bacon (900 yrs ago) who taught that alchemy should be used to produce medicines.
2. Ironically, early European alchemy would be dominated by the quest for transmuting metals into gold.
History of ChemistryRoger Bacon taught that alchemy should be used to produce medicine. But European alchemists became obsessed with the search for the philosopher’s stone.
History of Chemistry
Iatrochemistry in Renaissance Europe
1. Paracelsus (450 yrs ago) established the practice of iatrochemistry which is the use of alchemy to produce medicines made of minerals such as mercury.
2. He also taught that medicines must be made as “pure substances” or substances that are free from contaminants.
History of ChemistryParacelsus (450 yrs ago) founded iatrochemistry. He also taught that medicines must be made as “pure substances” or substances that are free from contaminants.
History of ChemistryThe Element is Defined
1. Robert Boyle (300 years ago) defined the element as a pure substance which cannot be broken down into simpler substances.
2. He also worked on the behavior of gases and discovered Boyle’s Law: that the volume of gasses decreases with increasing pressure.
History of Chemistry
Robert Boyle (300 yrs ago) defined that an element is a substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substance.
He is still an alchemist however, since he believed in transmutation.
History of Chemistry
The Father of Modern Chemistry
1. Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier (200 yrs ago) is recognized as the Father of Modern chemistry.
2. Lavoisier is known for his exact measurements and meticulous experiments in the lab and for establishing the Law of Conservation of Mass.
3. The Law of Conservation of Mass states that mass is never gained or lost during chemical reactions.
History of ChemistryAntoine-Laurent Lavoisier also
worked on:
1. Combustion2. Reduction3. and the nomenclature of
inorganic compounds
He was beheaded during the French revolution.
It’s because he was a teacher!!!

involves information gathering
? Question ?
What do you do once a set of hypotheses that agree with various observations is obtained?
They are assembled into a
theory
Theory… a philosophya concepta model a systema scheme
Theory
often called a model, it is a set of tested hypotheses that gives an overall explanation of some phenomena
Theories interpretations or possible
explanations changes eventually as more
information becomes available attempts to explain observed
natural behaviors
Law…

Points to Ponder?
chemists/scientists are humans sometimes/oftentimes:
prejudice misinterprets data lose objectivity play politics etc., etc.
Points to Ponder?
chemistry/science is affected: budget and profit motives wars and politics fads and religious beliefs
Examples Galileo was forced to recant his
astronomical observations in the face of strong religious resistance
Lavoisier was beheaded because of his political affiliations
great progress in Nitrogen chemistry resulted from the desire to produce explosives to fight wars
Nature of Science Terms• Fact: an observation that has been repeatedly confirmed
and for all practical purposes is accepted as “true”.
• Hypothesis: A tentative statement about the natural world leading to deductions that can be tested. If the deductions are verified, the hypothesis is corroborated. If false, the hypothesis must be abandoned or revised.
• Law: A descriptive generalization about how some aspect of the natural world behaves under stated circumstances.
• Theory: A well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world that can incorporate facts, laws, inferences, and tested hypothesis.

Measurement
Metric – The Universal Language of Measurement
Measurement
is a process of comparing a known quantity like measuring device to an unknown quantity or the things or objects to be measured. It is the process of determining how many times a certain quantity is contained in a standard measuring device.
• The loss of the Mars Climate Orbiter on September 23, 1999, was a most unfortunate and highly avoidable event.
• The cause of the mishap has been traced to a mix-up over units. Preliminary findings indicated that one team used English units (e.g., inches, feet and pounds) while the other used metric units for maneuvers required to place the spacecraft in the proper Mars orbit.
• The 'root cause' of the loss of the spacecraft was the failed translation of English units into metric units.
• For nearly three centuries, engineers and scientists have been struggling with English units.

In his first annual message to Congress (1790 January), President George Washington pressed for uniformity in currency, weights, and measures. Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson urged Congress to reduce the existing separate systems of dry and liquid measures to one set of measures.
Over 200 years later, we still have separate systems. For example, our dry quart is larger than our liquid quart, so four cups of flour and 4 cups of milk should be measured with separate measuring devices-which differ in size!
Jefferson's second plan put before Congress was to reduce every branch [of measurement] to the same decimal ratio already established for coin, and thus bring the calculations of the principal affairs of life within the arithmetic of every man who can multiply and divide plain numbers.
Congress took no action. Washington urged action again in his second annual message to Congress (1790 December 08) and the House referred the matter to the Senate, whose committee in this matter declined (1791 March 01) due to negotiations in progress with the French and British Governments to obtain an international standards of measurements.
Currency is based on 10.
In the same year of 1790 King Louis XVI of France was also weary of the inconsistencies of measurement that was hurting trade.
He ordered a new system of measurements be developed.
Earlier in that century, Fahrenheit and Celsius used water as the basis of their thermometers. Their thermometers were calibrated using water, which everyone had access to. This made their thermometers useful.
METRIC SYSTEM
The scientific system of measurement is often referred to as the International
System of Units, or SI. Scientists throughout the world use the metric system of measurement. It is based on units of ten.
The meter was originally defined as 1/10,000,000 of the distance from the equator to the North Pole.
Everyone has access to the Earth, so this new system was to be based on the size of the Earth.
The idea was to measure a part of Earth’s surface over a few degrees, then calculate distance from Equator to North Pole.
A survey team was suppose to measure the distance between Barcelona, Spain going through Paris and up to the English Channel.
By dividing the distance from the equator to the north pole by 10 million, a convenient length was defined.
It was a little longer than a yard, and the name would be from the Greek word, Metron,
meaning to measure.
10,000,000Equator to North PoleEquator to North Pole
The motto for the metric system was:
“For all people, for all time”
Based on 10 & using Arabic Numerals
Since the number system in use was no longer Roman Numerals, but the decimal number system borrowed from the Arab worlds and from India, the measurement system should also be based on 10 to make conversions easy.
Since we have 10 fingers, a number system based on 10 was developed.
Place Value
Roman Numerals did not take advantage of place value. X in Roman Numerals meant ten. XXX meant thirty. It didn’t matter where the X was placed; it always had the value of 10
Decimal
• The word decimal from from Latin decimalis meaning “of a tithe” A tithe was traditionally one tenth of income, so deci- meant one tenth.
• The new measuring system should also be based on tens and tenths.
