在近代的科学的化学形成之前,人类对于物质变化的认识和利用,仅仅处在哲学性的猜想和经验性的实践阶段。那样的很长期的阶段,我们在讲化学发展史的时候,不妨姑且统名之为经验化学时期。就化学知识来说,当人们还是处在经验化学的时期,我们中国在化学工艺的成就上,在认识物质的哲学理论上,以及在炼丹术的起源之早这几方面,大体上都可以说,超过了同时代的欧洲。只有到了近代,欧洲社会较早地脱离了封建主义,进入了资本主义社会,这就快速地推动了自然科学的发展。作为自然科学中的一个重要部门的化学,也就适应了欧洲社会的要求,由经验性的水平提高到系统化的科学水平。达到系统化的科学水平的化学知识,被称为近代化学。不必讳言,我国现有的近代化学知识是从欧洲传来的。国家之间的文化交流本来在历史上是常见
Before the formation of modern science chemistry, human knowledge and utilization of material changes were only in the stage of philosophical conjecture and empirical practice. Such a very long period, we talk about the history of the development of chemistry, we can tentatively referred to as the era of empirical chemistry. As far as chemical knowledge is concerned, when people are still in the period of empirical chemistry, we in China can generally say that in terms of the achievements of chemical processes, the philosophical theory of material understanding, and the early origins of alchemy , More than the same era in Europe. Only in modern times did the European society break away from feudalism and into capitalist society earlier, which accelerated the development of natural science. As an important part of the natural sciences chemistry, also adapted to the requirements of European society, from the empirical level to a systematic level of science. Achieve a systematic level of scientific knowledge of chemistry, known as modern chemistry. Needless to say, the current knowledge of modern chemistry in our country comes from Europe. Cultural exchanges between nations are historically commonplace
