Starting from an analysis on Gaston Bachelard's epistemological work, a survey is made of his conceptions on the teaching -learning process in the physical sciences, with special emphasis on Chemistry. which is so frequently rejected by the students, for it is presented as a set of superposed facts devoid of rational coherence. Accomplising the criticism of continuous course of scientific history and structuring the psychoanalytical basis of the objective knowledge, Bachelard offers subsidies to the inquiries into the teacher, the student and the school roles, into teaching methods and into didatic books.
