The alchemist Robert Boyle is credited as being the father of chemistry.

During the 17th century, practical alchemy started to evolve into modern chemistry, as it was renamed by Robert Boyle, the " father of modern chemistry ".< ref name =" Deem, Rich 2005 ">

In 1661, natural philosopher Robert Boyle published The Sceptical Chymist in which he argued that matter was composed of various combinations of different " corpuscules " or atoms, rather than the classical elements of air, earth, fire and water.

Robert Boyle pioneered the idea of an absolute zero.

One of the first to discuss the possibility of an absolute minimal temperature was Robert Boyle.

In his work Prodromo dell ' Arte Maestra ( 1670 ) he proposes a lighter-than-air vessel based on logical deductions from previous work ranging from Archimedes and Euclid to his contemporaries Robert Boyle and Otto von Guericke.

In chemistry this began with Robert Boyle ( 1627 – 1691 ) who came up with an equation known as Boyle's Law about the characteristics of gaseous state.

From the 16th century, researchers including Jan Baptist van Helmont, Robert Boyle and Isaac Newton tried to establish theories of the experimentally observed chemical transformations.

A huge influence throughout Mather ’ s career was Robert Boyle.

While coming to terms with who he was, Mather read Robert Boyle ’ s book “ The Usefulness of Experimental Natural Philosophy .” Mather read Boyle ’ s work closely throughout the 1680s and his early works on science and religion borrowed greatly from it.

Later, those as Robert Boyle, John Mayow, Johann Glauber, Isaac Newton, and Georg Stahl put forward ideas on elective affinity in attempts to explain how heat is evolved during combustion reactions.

He covers over 40 scientists, with special attention paid to Francis Bacon, Robert Boyle, and Isaac Newton.

It was followed by Academia Scientiarum ( 1687 ), and by A Moral Discourse of the Power of Interest ( 1690 ), dedicated to Robert Boyle, Abercromby's patron in the 1680s.

Further work was conducted by Otto von Guericke, Robert Boyle, Stephen Gray and C. F. du Fay.

Other European pioneers were Robert Boyle, who in 1675 stated that electric attraction and repulsion can act across a vacuum ; Stephen Gray, who in 1729 classified materials as conductors and insulators ; and C. F. du Fay, who proposed in 1733 that electricity comes in two varieties that cancel each other, and expressed this in terms of a two-fluid theory.

In 1662, the noted Irish physicist and chemist Robert Boyle performed a series of experiments employing a J-shaped glass tube, which was sealed on one end.

Philosophers associated with empiricism include Aristotle, Alhazen, Avicenna, Ibn Tufail, Robert Grosseteste, William of Ockham, Francis Bacon, Thomas Hobbes, Robert Boyle, John Locke, George Berkeley, David Hume, Leopold von Ranke, John Stuart Mill, and Karl Popper.

Similarly Robert Boyle, a prominent advocate of the experimental method, held that we have innate ideas.

It was in part based on Robert Boyle's The Christian Virtuoso ( 1690 ).

Robert Boyle ( 1627-1691 ): formulated Boyle's law, which describes the inversely proportional relationship between the absolute pressure and volume of a gas ( if the temperature is kept constant within a closed system ), wrote The Sceptical Chymist ( seen as cornerstone book in the field of chemistry ), regarded as the first modern chemist, one of the founders of modern chemistry
