Etymology
Chemist also means a scientist who studies chemistry, and the name goes back to alchemy and Arabic al-kīmiyā', which meant the 'art of changing' materials because those early people experimented with changing and mixing substances. So a modern chemist studies how materials change and how to make new things.
