    I would like to see this added to survival mode! Maybe an illager (similar to the witch) where they spawn separate to the village. The scientist would sell the 4 science blocks. The survival use could be deconstructing blocks into atoms, and reconstructing them into diamonds, water etc. Maybe there would be magical atoms that would be used to make ender pearls, blaze powder etc. I have been using the science blocks in my survival realm and it fit semi well. I think having an in-game wiki would help (Because You may not always have access to the internet.)

    Chemistry should be ported from Educational edition. And please merge with this https://feedback.minecraft.net/hc/en-us/community/posts/360011281772-All-of-the-education-items-should-be-in-the-creative-mode-menu-and-in-survival-mode

    I really enjoy the Chemistry update but very disapointed I cant use them in a normal survival world. I have to sacrifice acheivment getting to play with these new items. Adding the recipes for the 4 tables and also a separate tab in the recipe book for all the craftable items and their componants. A chemistry logbook for your discoveries that only unlocks as you progress through your science expiraments, guiding players toward goals. When the Nether update releases it would be really neat to include these new items to the chemistry lab. A geology update couls alos satisfy the "cave update" community and add to the scientific realism the Chemistry Edition brought to the game. I would love to play more in the lab, but Im a survival player and care little for creative mode other than as a testing ground for new ideas or build styles. I also feel like we need more lab equipment; hot plates with magnetic stir bars, distillation supplies, alchohol burners and lamps, burettes, vacume chambers, PH measuring tool, borosylicate glass, soda-lime glass, safety glass, laminated glass, optical glass, photo-chromatic glass, lead crystal glass, and lastly colored glass dyed with the apropriate metallic oxides.

    How about actually making textures for each element? Instead of using a tile for each block.

    For say silver, why cant we have a Block of Silver. Or with Mercury, a bucket of Mercury? 

    This truly would liven up this whole thing for me. It would get more people interested in it too, as they come to understand that each element is a real thing, not just a tile.

    The chemistry blocks should be available in survival mode without having to enable cheats. I suggest that the chemistry blocks, except for the element constructor, should be found in dungeons or it's a reward after defeating the Ender Dragon. All of the elements should be obtained by using the material reducer including the rare ones; for example, a bucket of water could reduce to just 2 Hydrogens and an Oxygen, but there would be like a few chances where Sodium would pop up in the material reducer, or like Tungsten randomly pops up in an Iron or Gold Ore, or random Calcium from Sand, etc. Plus, the ingots should also be able to break down in the reducer.
