13. Chemistry  Robert Boyle Chemistry experiments Boyle’s Law ○ Property of gasses ○ Volume varies based on pressure applied  Antoine Lavoisier System for naming elements Founder of Modern Chemistry

14. Women’s Contributions  Margaret Cavendish English aristocratic family Wrote on scientific matters ○ Observations Upon Experimental Philosophy ○ Published under her own name  Maria Winkelmann German astronomer Discovered a comet Applied to ranking position ○ After husband’s death ○ Denied: lack of education and a woman

15. Philosophy and Reason  Rene Descartes French philosopher Ideology ○ Uncertainty seemed to be everywhere ○ “I think, therefore I am”  certain Philosophy dominated Western thought ○ Until the 20 th century  Rationalism Reason is the chief source of knowledge

16. Scientific Method  Francis Bacon English philosopher ○ Few scientific credentials ○ Not a scientist “The true and lawful goal of the sciences is none other than this: that human life be endowed with new discoveries and power.”  Scientific Method Systematic procedure for collecting and analyzing evidence Major element of modern science  Inductive reasoning Particular  General thinking
