Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is D. Scientists used evidence, analysis, and experiments to disprove  alchemy.

Explanation:

Alchemy was based on changing a non-precious material into a precious material like lead into gold. It was considered as magic and science before the 19th century because in the 19th-century scientist get to know about the nature of metals and the periodic table that disproved alchemy.

Alchemist said that everything is made up of soil, water, fire, and earth but after the advancement of chemistry and physics it became clear that everything is made up of atoms, and lead is also made up of atom which can not be converted into gold.

So scientist used evidence, analysis, and experiments to disprove alchemy. Therefore the correct answer is D.
