Instructions
To  learn  the  speech  of  alchemy,  an  early  form  of  chemistry  in  which  people  attempted  to  turn  metals  into  gold,  it  helps  to  think  back  to  a  time  when  there  was  no  science:  no  atomic  number  or  weight,  no  periodic  chart  no  list  of  elements.  To  the  alchemists,  the    was  not  made  of  leptons,  bosons,  gluons,  and  quarks.  Instead,  it  was  made  of  substances,  and  one  substance-say,  walnut  oil  could  be  just  as    as  another-say,  silver-even  though  modern    would  say  one  is  heterogeneous  and  the  other  homogeneous.  Without  knowledge  of  atomic  structures,  how  would  it  be    to  tell  elements  from  compounds?
