Famous chemist Robert Boyle has died.

On December 30, 1691, the famous chemist Robert Boyle died.

The history of chemistry considers 1661 as the beginning of modern chemistry, because in that year a book published that had a major impact on the development of chemistry, The Skeptical Chemist, was written by the British scientist Robert Boehringer. Revolutionary teacher Marx Engels also agreed with this view, he praised “Boehringer established chemistry as a science”.

Boeier lived during the British bourgeois revolution and the beginning of modern science, an era of giants. Boeier was born in Lisbon, Ireland, on 25 January 1627. Just a year before his birth, Francis Bacon, the famous modern scientific thinker who argued that “knowledge is power”, just died. The great physicist Newton Boeier was 16 years younger. The great scientists of modern times, Galileo of Italy, Kepler of Germany, and Deccal of France all lived in this period.

He was born in a noble family, and his home provided better material conditions for his studies and subsequent scientific research. In his childhood, he did not appear clever, he was quiet, spoke and tasted. No game could fascinate him, but he was better educated than his brothers, and loved to read and often read books. At the age of eight, his father sent him to the Eton Public School in the suburbs of London, in which he studied for three years. Then he and his brother Frank accompanied him with family teachers to Geneva, one of the European educational centers at the time, for two years. Here he studied French, practical mathematics and arts, and more importantly, the new teachings that emerged in the Swiss religious reform movement, reflecting the new teachings of bourgeois thought.

In 1641, with his family teachers, the Brothers of Bohemia travelled to Europe and arrived in Italy at the end of the year. Even on horseback, Bohemia remained untouched. In Italy, he read Galileo's famous book The Dialogue of the Two World Systems. This book impressed him deeply, and twenty years later his book The Skeptical Chemist was written in the form of this book.

The brothers of Bohemian, like their father, were barbarians during the bourgeois revolution in England. In 1644, his father died in a battle. The mutation of the family situation, the interruption of the economic sources, brought Bohemian back to war-torn England. After returning home, he moved to London with his sister, the compassionate revolutionary lady Renella. In London, he recognized the scientific educator Hart Lipp, and Hart Lipp encouraged him to study medicine and agriculture.

Bose was the youngest of fourteen brothers and sisters in his home: at the age of three his mother died unfortunately. Per because of the lack of mother care, he became sick from the small body. Once sick, because the doctor prescribed the wrong medication and died, fortunately his stomach did not absorb the medication spit out, and was not deadly. After this encounter, he was afraid of the doctors and was afraid of the disease and was unwilling to go to the doctor. And began to practice medicine, and everywhere to look for medications and treat for himself. Harley's encouragement made him decide to study medicine. At the time the doctors were all prescribing drugs, so the study of medicine also had to develop drugs and do experiments, so that Bose had a strong interest in chemical experiments.

In the course of his studies in medicine, he read many of the writings of pharmaceutical chemists, and he adored the Belgian pharmaceutical chemist Hermondo, 50 years older than he was. Hermondo was fully engaged in chemical experiments during the day and night, calling himself the “philosopher of fire art.” This became the example of Boise’s learning. Boise’s ear created a laboratory for himself, full of ashes and smoke, completely immersed in experiments. This is how Boise’s life began to devote itself to science until his death in late 1691.
