What transforms energy from one form to another?
a transducer is a device used to transform energy and by the way this is physics not chemistry
Ancient form of writing using wedge shaped symbols?
Cuneiform
What is classified as ancient?
An ancient is when you have to go to the bathroom or somethng like that and take a pee why what do you thing it is because i really dont not so get away form me ok good bye see you
Is physics pseudo science?
No. Pseudoscience is a belief or practice which claim to be scientific but have not yet proved it. For instance, some people consider Astrology or Psychic Powers to pseudoscience (personally, I feel astrology is not pseudo science). Physics IS a scientific practice and has been proved throughout history.
What is floculation?
Floculation is the combining of very small pieces into bigger pieces. It's a chemistry term for colloids in solution. The colloids come out of suspension in the form of floc or flakes.
What is the early form of chemistry?
This was alchemy.
What was chemistry in ancient times called?
Chemistry's origin is deeply rooted in alchemy. Alchemy, at its core level, is the study of techniques of transforming one element into another. At its superficial level, alchemy is commonly associated with ancient alchemists (practitioners of alchemy) trying to convert some naturally occurring metal to gold.
How do you use the word alchemy in a sentence?
People who practiced alchemy wished to turn lead into gold.The study of alchemy was an early form of chemistry.
Can someone explain what alchemy is?
Alchemy is basically chemistry in order to create gold. It's not an existing form of chemistry anymore, but was highly sought before the 19th century.
Is alchemy still in use?
Yes and no. No in that the original alchemy, with its chemically impossible goal of turning lead into gold and such, is no longer in use; if it is then it's very underground. Yes in that the methods of alchemists eventually evolved into modern chemistry. In fact, alchemy is sometimes used as a tongue-in-cheek nickname for chemistry, but this is usually purely literary. So, technically, you could say that "alchemy" is still in use, in its modern form as chemistry.
How did alchemy develop?
Alchemy is often defined as a pseudo-scientific predecessor to chemistry that sought to transmute base metals into gold, produce an elixir to prolong life indefinitely, produce a panacea or universal remedy, and produce an 'alkhest' or universal solvent. Alchemy is actually about all possible transmutations (changes of state and form) of all matter. The practice of alchemy appears to be quite ancient. The Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Chinese, and early Arab community all engaged in alchemical investigations, and some exchange of information between these groups seems to have occurred as well.

Has alchemy provided any real contribution to science?
While alchemy is considered a precursor to modern chemistry, its contributions to science are largely symbolic and philosophical rather than empirical. Some practices, like distillation and the concept of the philosopher's stone, laid the foundation for chemical principles but were eventually replaced by more rigorous scientific methods.
How was alchemy replaced?
The decline of alchemy began during the 18th century with the birth of modern chemistry, which provided a more precise and reliable framework for the making of medicine and the transmutation of matter, within a new grand design of the universe based on rational materialism. Alchemy is still practiced by many today mostly in the form of philosophy, spiritualism, or mysticism under the category of hermeticism.

Where does the word chemistry came from?
It's a modification of "alchemy", which is a variation on Arabic al-kimiya, from Greek khemioia.It's not certain where the Greek word came from; it could be a reference to Khemia (an ancient term for Egypt) or Greek khymatos ("that which is poured out").
