Transmutation is the process by which one element changes into another. This can only be done with a nuclear reaction, but alchemists once believed it might be possible, for example, to transmute lead into gold. They tried many bizarre things, but were never successful. Only nuclear reactions, such as fusion, fission, radioactive decay, etc, can induce a transmutation
