Early chemists and alchemists were using chemical energy to try to transmute (change) other metals to gold. There is far too little energy in chemical reactions to do this.
The alchemists were the first chemists. But in addition to mixing chemicals, they also believed that magic would help with their experiments and formulas. It didn't. But their experiments led to the development of the science of chemistry.
An alchemist was a medieval scientist who attempted to change worthless metals into gold. Alchemists also sought to create the philosopher's stone, a legendary substance believed to grant immortality.

I don't think "alchemists" is the word you meant to use, because your question does not make sense. Alchemists are people who try to magically turn lead into gold, or otherwise magically turn one substance into another.
