The study moves from the traditional model that treats “chance” as accidental luck, to the “material response” model that views these phenomena as manifestations of the intrinsic complexity of matter and its capacity to surprise prevailing theoretical models. This transformation necessitates rethinking fundamental concepts in chemical philosophy. The methodology relies on a precise analytical trilogy comprising critical historical reading of knowledge contexts, philosophical induction of epistemological patterns, and the study of socio-institutional dynamics governing the acceptance or rejection of anomalous phenomena. The integrated application of this methodology reveals new dimensions in understanding chemical discovery. The study concludes that unexpected phenomena represent fertile epistemological moments revealing the dialectical dialogue between abstract reason and material complexity, and proposes a radical shift in understanding the nature of chemical knowledge and its production methods, opening new horizons for future research in the philosophy of chemistry. The analysis distinguishes between serendipity, unexpectedness, and opportunistic observation, drawing on relevant literature to contextualize these concepts.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":568,"journal":{"name":"Foundations of Chemistry","volume":"28 1","pages":"21 - 36"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147559463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, philosophers have asked and pursued many questions about scientific categories, but these have tended to be ontological or metaphysical questions. We uncover and formulate a seldom addressed methodological or inferential question about epistemic practice—about <i>how</i> scientists in fact attempt to justify theories about the definitive natures, or constitutive conditions, of categories. We explain how a lack of sufficient attention to this <i>constitutivity inference question</i> reflects a gap in knowledge about how science works. Then we contribute to answering the question by focusing on two twentieth century periods of chemistry, showing that and how scientists sometimes rely on value-laden norms of scientific classification in their inferences to constitutivity theories about categories. This finding raises several interesting questions.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":568,"journal":{"name":"Foundations of Chemistry","volume":"28 1","pages":"111 - 133"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147561300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In fact, I will argue that nanotechnology lends itself to the same sort of phenomenological analysis as other technologies (such as nuclear reactors) in which direct epistemic access to the product of the technology is not possible due to the nature and/or features of that product. I will argue that nanotechnologies provide only a 'mediated access' to nanomaterials that requires chemical engineers to infer what is happening at the nanoscale from the information provided by the mediating devices. However, the indirect and interpretive nature of this epistemic relation increases the probability of 'misreading' what is occurring at the nanoscale and of unintended consequences from the manipulation of nanomaterials. This analysis concludes that, from the standpoint of safety, there are serious reasons for concern regarding nanotechnology due to the toxicological and environmental effects that may result from such unintended consequences. These concerns also stem from the fact that this problem is insurmountable because the phenomenological limits of epistemic access is endemic to nanotechnology itself.</p>","PeriodicalId":568,"journal":{"name":"Foundations of Chemistry","volume":"28 1","pages":"135 - 148"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147561050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On this basis, a historical account is carried out concerning the vectorial representation of the electric dipole moment in chemistry. This convention, which is the opposite of the one adopted in physics, has its origin in the works that Sidgwick published in the early 1930s, which was consolidated in the related research papers of the following decades. As a result, authors of chemistry textbooks adopted the chemical direction of this vector. However, at the end of the last century some authors of physical chemistry textbooks started to use the physics convention, but organic chemistry and general chemistry textbooks still mainly follow the historical tradition.

Despite its central importance in chemistry, the Born–Oppenheimer approximation is often severely misinterpreted or misrepresented. More specifically, widespread claims about the Born–Oppenheimer approximation within the chemistry community imply that this approximation enforces the nuclei of a molecule to be (1) frozen and (2) treated as classical particles. Both claims are wrong. This article aims to discuss the derivation of the Born–Oppenheimer approximation in a pedagogical way, representing the main steps of this derivation pictorially via a model molecular system. The pictorial derivation is then connected to the formal mathematical derivation for the interested reader. We hope that this pictorial derivation can help chemists to better understand the main steps leading to this key approximation and why the two claims mentioned above are incorrect. We also believe that a detailed understanding of the Born–Oppenheimer approximation is necessary to tackle problem in chemistry where this approximation breaks down, like photochemistry for example.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":568,"journal":{"name":"Foundations of Chemistry","volume":"28 1","pages":"89 - 109"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10698-025-09559-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147559420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
