What killed alchemy was the insistence that experiments must be openly reported in publications which presented a clear account of what had happened, and they must then be replicated, preferably before independent witnesses. The alchemists had pursued a secret learning . . . some parts of that learning could be taken over by . . . the new chemistry, but much of it had to be abandoned as incomprehensible and unreproducible.
