Centuries ago,the science of chemistry, as we know it, did not
exist. It was the age of alchemy. One of the main theories of
alchemy was the theory of the four elements. This theory supposed
that all substances were made by combining different mixtures of
just four elements. These elements are AIR, EARTH, FIRE and WATER.
For hundreds of years, alchemists tried to change ordinary metals
into gold. They never succeeded, but in their quest, they invented
many useful devices and techniques that became the foundation for
the study of modern chemistry.
