What are the 3 elements discovered by the alchemists of the middle ages?

Alchemists discovered Arsenic, Antimony, and Bismuth. The Golden Dream Alchemists, in the Middle Ages, believed they could turn ordinary metals into gold. The metallic elements silver (Ag), gold (Au) and copper (Cu) are lustrous, malleable, ductile, conductive and valuable. Each metal is used to make sculptures, jewelry and other structures. If ordinary metals are combined with other elements, you can create an alloy. Artists often work with alloys because of their durability and color. Alloys are used to make coins, costume jewelry, sculptures and other items. However, is there a way to turn alloys into one of these precious elements? To answer this question one would have to create an experiment. This experiment should be performed in a chemistry lab. Its objective is to show how alloys are made. Alchemy in the Middle Ages was a right mixture of science, philosophy and mysticism. Nowhere near operating within the modern definition of a scientific discipline. Medieval alchemists approached their craft with a holistic attitude. They believed that purity of body, spirit and mind was necessary to pursue their ideas successfully. At the very heart of medieval alchemy was the idea that all matter was composed of four elements, earth, fire, water and air. With the right combination of elements, it was theorized, any substance on earth might be formed. This included precious metals as well as elixirs to cure disease and prolong life. Alchemists believed that the 'transmutation' of one substance into another was possible, thus we have the cliche of medieval alchemists seeking to 'turn lead into gold'. Medieval Alchemists discovered Hydrochloric and Nitric acid, Potash and Sodium Carbonate. They were able to identify the elements Arsenic, Antimony, and Bismuth.
