I think that they were unsuccessful in recreating gold from ordinary things. If they were successful in doing so there would be a lot of ordinary valuable things.

I don't think that they were successful in making gold. they might have created something that looked like gold though. the science behind alchemy is too inconsistent to create the same product every time.

No, I think some might have pulled it off, but according to the video many tried and claimed to have made gold, but there was no consistency, so I don't think it is logical to assume that they all made gold. They could have made a metal that looked like gold...It would have been a bigger deal if they had all pulled it off. Their countries would have been wealthier and it would have changed and affected the whole population.

i think they werent successful because if they were there then people would have more gold.

I think that the scientists were unsuccessful in making things into gold. if we were able to do that, a lot of people would own some gold and it wouldn't have as much value.

I believe that alchemist were not able to turn things into gold. One reason I say this is because if alchemist were successful in turning things into gold, gold wouldn't be the most valuable thing today. Another reason I believe they were unsuccessful is the lack of gold around us. If you think about it, wouldn't there be more gold in our daily life?

I don't think the scientist were successful in turning things into gold. If they were the value of gold would be dramatically lower than it is now. Also they would have been richer in the beginning until more people got gold.

I don't believe that alchemists were successful in turning things into gold. If they had succeed the amount of wealth of things would've been greater, or lessened due to the large amount of gold wealth.

I don't think those scientists were successful in turning things into gold. If they were successful, the value of gold would not be what its worth today.

I do not believe that the alchemists were successful in turning things to gold. I believe this because I know that if they were successful, the value of gold would have decreased.

I do not believe that the alchemists were successful in turning metals into gold because if they were, gold's value would not be as high.

I believe that the alchemists were unsuccessful in turning metals into gold as then the value of gold would decrease.

I do not think alchemists were successful in turning metals into gold. If they had been successful, then the wealth of their regions would have increased dramatically. Additionally, the value of gold today would not be so high because we would have a system to create it.
