∙ 9y agoAlchemy, a process to transmute or change matter, was what we know as chemistry today. Aristotle's idea was that all matter combined earth, fire, air, and water, and could be changed by adding heat or cold, or dampness or dryness. In the late 1700's,scientists figured out that heat was not a part of matter. After the 1700s, atomic theory replaced alchemy.
