Wohler rejected this theory by obtaining urea,an organic compound in the urine of mammals,from ammonium cyanate
The vital force theory was a theory presented by Berzelius. The 1809 theory stated that organic compounds could not be synthesized in a laboratory. The German Scientist contradicted the theory, and prepared Urea through Ammonium Chloride and Potassium Cyanate so eventually is was discarded.
Biological research has been able to identify chemical reactions that are involved in every aspect of life; it has not identified anything that would be described as vital force, which was formerly used to explain those things which we now explain in terms of chemical reactions, physical structures, and evolutionary processes. In general, in order for science to identify a force (such as the force of gravity, the electromagnetic force, etc.) scientists must be able to describe mathematically what the force actually does, and how it is generated, and how it interacts with matter, and so forth; no such information has ever been obtained about vital force. It is a kind of vaguely conceived, mystical force whose properties if any remain unknown. We do not have any means to generate it, to measure it, or to do anything else with it. Consequently there is no scientific basis upon which to claim that such a force exists.
the church rejected the theory and tried to punish scientists for promoting it.
The Helio-centric theory was proposed by a Polish astronomer , named Nicolaus Copernicus. Galileo believed this.
If a hypothesis does not explain an observation, it is rejected. A hypothesis is basically just an educated guess, so it could be wrong, or right.
Friedrick Wohler rejected this theory in 1828 by heating ammonium cyanate in laboratory.
It would be much shorter to list the ways in which the theory of "vital force" was right. Here they are, between the parentheses: ().

Lavoiser rejected the phlogiston theory!
A bathmism is an obsolete term for a "growth force" in the theory of vitalism - the doctrine that life involves some immaterial "vital force".
Theories can be changed or rejected if and when the scientific evidence no longer supports the theory.
vital theory was disproved by mr shianrilong reamei
Lamarck's theory of evolution. He thought, without any real evidence, that organisms had a " need " to evolve.
Alfred Wegner theory was rejected for a reason. This is because he didnt have enough information to prove that he is correct
A hypothesis will be rejected if it fails the necessary testing required for it to become a scientific theory.
