Modern Chemistry
“All young chemists adopt the theory and from that l conclude that the revolution in chemistry has come to pass”
Lavoisier, Traité, 1791 Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier (1743-1794)
Modern chemistry as we know today was the outcome of a total change of the old concepts handed down over 2,000 years.
It was not just the consequence of a scientific breakthrough or new factual information but a chemical revolution change in thought, in viewpoint, in terminology, and in language.
The chemical revolution has changed the way of chemistry thought pointing to the new directions that chemical research would take.
