SECTION 3 Questions 28-40 
Read the text оп pages 125 and 126 and answer Questions 28-40. 
Serendipity - accidental 
discoveries in science 
What do photography, dynamite, insulin and artificial sweetener have in 
common? Serendipity! These diverse discoveries, which have made our everyday 
living more convenient, were discovered partly Ьу chance. However, Louis Pasteur 
noted the additional requirement involved in serendipity when he said, ' ... chance 
favours only the prepared mind'. 
The discovery of modern photography provides an example of serendipity. 
ln 1838, L. J. М. Daguerre was attempting to 'fix' images onto а copper 
photographic plate. After adding а silver coating to the plate and exposing it to 
iodine vapour, he found that the photographic image was improved but still very 
weak. Desperate after an investigation lasting several months, Daguerre placed а 
lightly exposed photographic plate in the cupboard in which laboratory chemicals 
such as alcohol and collodion were stored. То his amazement, when he removed 
the plate several days later, Daguerre found а strong image on its surface. 
This image had been created Ьу chance. lt was at this point that Louis Pasteur's 
'additional requirement' came into play: Daguerгe's training told him that one or 
more of the chemicals in the cupboard was responsiЬle for intensifying the image. 
After а Ьгеаk of two weeks, Daguerre systematically placed new photographic 
plates in the cupboard, removing one chemical each day. UnpredictaЬly, good 
photographic images wеге created even after all chemicals had been removed. 
Daguerre then noticed that some mercury had spilled onto the cupboard shelf, 
and he concluded that the mercury vapour must have improved the photographic 
result. From this .discovery came the universal adoption of the silver-mercury 
process to develop photographs. 
Daguerre's serendipitous research effort was rewarded, а year later, with а medal 
conferred Ьу the French government. Many great scientists have benefited from 
serendipity, including Nobel Prize winners. ln fact the scientist who estaЬlished 
the Nobel Prize was himself Ыessed with serendipity. ln 1861, the Nobel 
family built а factory in Stockholm to produce nitroglycerine, а colourless and 
highly explosive oil that had first been prepared Ьу an ltalian chemist fifteen 
years earlier. Nitroglycerine was known to Ье volatile and unpredictaЫe, often 
exploding as а result of very small knocks. But the Nobel family believed that this 
new explosive could solve а major proЫem facing the Swedish State Railways -
the need to dig channels and tunnels through mountains so that the developing 
railway systemcould expand.
