Question

I'm writing a paper on alchemy. Is it really possible that someone could turn base metals into gold or make immortality elixirs? It's kinda hard to believe I know but many believed in alchemy in the middle ages. How did \"alchemists\" get away with that?

Answer 1

It could possible for this to work but humans must know everything to what we want this item to be and what it is. So like know the complete molecule structure

Answer 2

Yes, it would be possible to turn a base metal into gold. An example of that would be the lead. In order to turn a metal like lead, what it needs is just to gain or loss protons. And also same goes to elixirs.
