How has the study of chemistry affected the lives of ordinary people? Every single day‚ without even realising it‚ we use so many things that are brought to us by the discoveries and advances in chemistry. Many of these things we take for granted‚ and don’t even bother to question how it got there‚ why it is there‚ and how it works. Chemistry makes up everything in our lives‚ from the air that we breathe‚ to the plastic on the keyboard I’m typing on now‚ and a in depth study of some of the wonderful

Food Chemistry Journal From raw food to brand label grocery. Why Food Chemistry? I am passionate about food‚ I love discovering new food‚ experimenting with taste‚ play with colors and learn the benefits and why our body needs certain nutrients. Before coming to college I did 2 years of full healthy dishes and read all over internet and books new ways to introduce new nutrients to my diet. During this 2 years I lost weight but except for that I felt clean from the inside‚ more energetic and happier

The gifts of chemistry are a boon to mankind. Its applications in home and industry are many. Right from purified drinking water and motor car to cane sugar and mobile phone‚ all these have been made possible only through processes in chemistry at some stage or other of production. New discoveries‚ processes‚ and products are an integral part of this fascinating discipline. It offers a fertile ground for those endowed with intellectual curiosity and a passion for scientific research. you must

The importance of chemistry‚ or any other area of study‚ depends entirely on how relevant it is to some desired outcome. If you wished to create a new type of plastic‚ chemistry would be highly important‚ but if you wished to develop a new music genre‚ chemistry would probably be of no importance at all. It is extremely important. That aspirin or tylenol you may take for a headache was made by chemists‚ as are antibiotics‚ and other prescription meds. Not only are chemists in the drug trade‚ but

from valves to electronics‚ down to microelectronics and quantum computing. It mirrors the downsizing in focus in the biological sciences‚ from cells to genomics. Conversely‚ achievements in chemistry have been converging into the nanometre range from below – from atoms and molecules to supramolecular chemistry. Nanochemisty focuses on the unique properties of materials in the 1–100 nm scale. The physical‚ chemical‚ electrical‚ optical and magnetic properties of these materialsare all significantly
