Origin of Chinese name

The Chinese word "chemistry" first appeared in 1856 (the sixth year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty) "Geophysical Exploration" by Williamson [8] The word "chemistry" is mentioned in. In 1857, A Wylie's publications in Shanghai《 Shanghai Serial [9] In the "little quotation" of the issue number, it was written: "I am writing the book Liuhe Congtan today, and I also want to communicate the feelings of China and foreign countries, carry out far and near events Ancient and modern changes I will write an article on each month after seeing and hearing what I have caught. " He also said: "Recently, the westerners learned from this, they kept improving, advanced anecdotes, enlightened the mysteries of philosophy, and blazed new trails in nature. Today, we will give a brief outline: First, chemistry. Every word has its own quality, and its own changes. Based on sincerity, we can analyze it in detail, and know that there are 64 yuan, and the quality of this thing has not yet been achieved."
With the spread of Liuhe Congtan, the word "chemistry" began to be accepted by Chinese intellectuals. Since the 1860s, the term chemistry has also been widely used in Chinese publications, such as Jingshi Tongwen Hall Textbook "Introduction to Gewu" (1868)《 Chemistry Guidelines 》(1873), Chemical Interpretation (1882), etc. In particular, by John Fryer and Xu Shou China's first set of modern chemistry translated in 1870-1883 Basic theory "Chemistry" is used in the title of works, such as《 Chemical identification 》, Chemical Elements, Chemical Textual Research, Chemical Mathematics, etc. These textbooks and monographs have played a key role in popularizing the word "chemistry" in China [2]

historical origin

The history of chemistry is very old. It can be said that the earliest chemical practice began when people learned to use fire. Our ancestors drilled wood to make fire, baked food with fire, warmed themselves in cold nights, drove away beasts, and made full use of the phenomenon of light and heat when burning. At that time, it was just an accumulation of experience. The formation of chemical knowledge and the development of chemistry have gone through a long and tortuous road. It is accompanied by human society Progress and development social development The inevitable result of. Its development promotes the development of productive forces and the advancement of history. The development of chemistry mainly goes through the following periods:

embryo

From ancient times to 1500 BC, human beings learned to make pottery from clay, burn metal from ore, brew wine from grain, and color silk, linen and other fabrics in the raging fire. These are the first to come through long-term exploration under the direct inspiration of practical experience Chemical process However, chemical knowledge has not yet been formed, which is just the embryonic stage of chemistry. In ancient times, Primitive human For their survival, they found and used fire in the struggle against various disasters in nature. Primitive humans began to use fire, from barbarism to civilization, and also began to understand and transform natural materials by chemical methods. Combustion is a chemical phenomenon. (The discovery and utilization of fire have improved the living conditions of human beings and made them smart and powerful.)
After mastering fire, humans began to eat cooked food; Then human beings have discovered some material changes, such as those found in emerald green Malachite etc. Copper ore When burning charcoal on it, there will be red copper. In China, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period began to transform from a bronze society Cattle ploughing The social changes triggered by this promoted the development of chemistry. [3]
In this way, in the process of gradually understanding and utilizing the changes of these substances, human beings have made great contributions to human beings use value Products. Human gradually learned to make pottery and smelt; Later I learned how to brew and dye. These products, processed and transformed from natural materials, become ancient civilization Logo of. On the basis of these production practices, ancient chemical knowledge germinated.

Pill Period

From about 1500 BC to 1650 AD, chemistry was used in alchemy alchemy Controlled by. In order to obtain the elixir of immortality or gold symbolizing wealth, alchemists and Alchemy The magicians began the earliest chemical experiments, and then books recording and summarizing alchemy also appeared one after another. Although the alchemists ended up in failure, they were refining Elixir of life In the process of exploring the method of "turning stone into gold", we realized the mutual transformation between substances by artificial methods, and accumulated many substances Chemical change It has accumulated rich practical experience for the development of chemistry.
At that time, the word "chemistry" meant "alchemy". But with the decline of alchemy and alchemy, people see more of its absurd and untrustworthy side.

Phlogiston period

This period, from 1650 to 1775, was the gestation period of modern chemistry. along with metallurgical industry And laboratory experience accumulation , people conclude perceptual knowledge To carry out theoretical research on chemical changes and make chemistry a branch of natural science. The beginning of this stage was marked by British chemists Boyle by chemical element Indicate scientific concepts. Then, chemistry borrowed Phlogiston theory Free from alchemy. Phlogiston Said that Combustible It can burn because it contains phlogiston, Combustion process Although this theory is wrong, it unifies a large number of chemical facts under one concept and explains many chemical phenomena.
During the more than one hundred years of the popularity of phlogiston theory, chemists have done a lot of experiments to explain various phenomena, discovered the existence of various gases, and accumulated more new knowledge about substance transformation. In particular, the phlogiston theory believes that chemical reaction is a process in which one substance transfers to another Conservation of matter These ideas laid the foundation of modern chemical thinking. This period not only made preparations for the development of modern chemistry in terms of scientific practice, but also in terms of ideology. This period became the breeding period of modern chemistry.
From the 16th century, Europe industrial production The vigorous rise has promoted the development of medical chemistry and metallurgy The creation and development of chemistry. Turn alchemy to life and practical application, and then pay more attention to materials Chemical change Own research. In the element's Scientific concepts After establishment, through the precision of combustion phenomenon experimental study , established scientific oxidation theory and Law of conservation of mass , and later established Constant ratio law Multiple ratio law and Law of combined quantity And laid a foundation for the further scientific development of chemistry.

Modern chemistry

This period, from 1775 to 1900, is the period of modern chemistry development. Around 1775, Lavoisier used quantitative chemical experiments to explain the Oxidation theory , ushered in the period of quantitative chemistry, and made chemistry develop along the right track. At the beginning of the 19th century, British chemists Dalton Put forward modern times Atomic theory , highlighted that the atomic mass of various elements is its most basic feature, and the introduction of the concept of quantity Atomism A major difference between. Modern atomism So that the chemical knowledge and theory at that time can be reasonably explained and become a unified theory to explain chemical phenomena. Then Italian scientists Avogadro Put forward the concept of molecule. Self use Atom molecule theory To study chemistry, chemistry is really established as a science. During this period, many basic chemical laws were established. Russian chemist Mendeleev find Periodic law of elements German chemists Libich and Weiler developed the theory of organic structure, which made chemistry a systematic science and laid the foundation for the development of modern chemistry.
In the second half of the 19th century, thermodynamics After the introduction of physical theory into chemistry, not only the chemical equilibrium and reaction rate And can be judged quantitatively chemical reaction The direction and conditions of the transformation of substances. Have successively established Solution theory Ionization theory electrochemistry and chemical kinetics The theoretical basis of. The birth of physical chemistry has raised chemistry to a new level theoretically. Through the analysis of minerals, many new elements have been found Atomic and molecular theory Experimental verification of, classic chemical analysis The method also has its own system. oxalate and urea Synthesis of valence Generation of concept, hexacyclic structure of benzene and carbon Valence bond The creation of tetrahedron and other theories tartaric acid Split into Optical isomer , and molecular Asymmetry And so on, leading to Structure Theory of Organic Chemistry With the establishment of, people have a deeper understanding of the nature of molecules and laid the foundation of organic chemistry.

Modern Chemistry

Chemistry in the 20th century is a science based on experiments. Experiments and theories have always been two interdependent and mutually reinforcing aspects of chemical research. After entering the 20th century, due to the influence of the development of other disciplines of natural science and the extensive application of contemporary scientific theories, technologies and methods, chemistry has made considerable progress in understanding the composition, structure, synthesis and testing of substances, and has made many important theoretical achievements. On the basis of the four branches of inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, organic chemistry and physical chemistry, new branches of chemistry have emerged.
The theory and technology of modern physics Mathematical method and computer technology Its application in chemistry has greatly promoted the development of modern chemistry.

1. Ensure human survival and constantly improve human Quality of life For example, chemical production of fertilizers and pesticides to increase grain yield utilize Chemosynthetic drugs To inhibit bacteria and Viruses , Guarantee human health Utilize chemistry to develop new energy and materials to improve human's Living conditions Comprehensive application of natural resources and protect the environment To make human life better.
2. Chemistry is a very practical natural discipline, which, together with mathematics, physics and other disciplines, forms the basis for the rapid development of natural science. Chemical Core knowledge It has been applied in various regions of natural science, and chemistry is an important pillar of the powerful force to transform nature. Unlike particle physics and Nuclear physics The scale of atoms, molecules, ions (clusters) and chemical bonds studied by chemists is Microcosm It is the closest to the macro level, so it can use chemistry to prepare what humans need, which does not exist in nature, and has specific physics Chemical properties Substances and materials. Chemists use chemical perspectives to observe and think social problem , use chemical knowledge to analyze and solve social problems, such as energy problem Food problem environmental problems health problem , resources and sustainable development.
3. The intersection and infiltration of chemistry and other disciplines have produced many marginal disciplines, such as biochemistry, geochemistry Cosmochemistry , marine chemistry, atmospheric chemistry and so on, which make biology, electronics, aerospace, laser, geology, ocean and other science and technology develop rapidly.
4. Cultivate the mentality of continuous progress, discovery, exploration and curiosity, stimulate human's desire to understand nature and understand nature, and enrich human's spiritual world.
Nowadays, chemistry is increasingly penetrating into all aspects of life, especially those closely related to the development of human society Major issues In short, chemistry and human clothing, food, housing, transportation, energy, information, materials, national defense, environmental protection, electronics, metallurgy, medicine and health resource utilization It is a practical subject urgently needed by the society.
