520 _a"Chemistry for Beginners" by Hereward Carrington is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This book serves as an introduction to the principles and concepts of chemistry, exploring its history from ancient alchemy to contemporary scientific understanding. It covers a wide range of topics, including the atomic theory, the periodic law, the nature of elements, and modern biochemical processes. The content of "Chemistry for Beginners" is structured in two parts, with the first focusing on the historical evolution of chemistry and its foundational principles. Carrington discusses key figures like John Dalton, the importance of emissions and absorption spectra in identifying elements, and the relationship between elements as explained by the periodic law. The second part elaborates on elements individually, their properties, and the significance of organic and inorganic compounds. Additionally, the book delves into advanced topics such as radioactivity, intra-atomic energy, and the origins of life, offering a comprehensive overview of chemistry that blends scientific inquiry with philosophical reflections on the nature of matter.
