About Topics
Atoms - Atom are small molecules that make up life.
Compounds - A pure chemical substance that is made when different chemical elements are put together.
Natural Substances - Natural Substances are materials that occur in nature and are produced by living organisms that live here on our planet.
Polyatomics - Polyatomics are molecules made of multiple atoms bonded together.
Bohr Models - A model that was created to display electrons orbiting around the nucleus of an atom and how many of them orbit around a nucleus. It describes the properties of atomic electrons by showing how many values are in each element atom.
Ionic Compounds - A ionic compound is when chemical elements of oppositely charged ions comes together to form a group that balances those ions.
Chemical Bonding - Chemical Bonding happens when two elements on the periodic table either transfer or share each others electrons (depends if they are mixed or convalent) to balance out their ion charges so that they are stabilized.
Units and Measurement - When experimenting, taking measurements and writing units to perform calculations is also an important factor in Chemistry especially when it comes to answering density questions.
What does chemistry offer in our lives?
Overall, Chemistry offers things such as:
-
Understanding Matter - Matter is what makes up everything on earth.
-
Chemical Reactions - Chemical reactions like melting, freezing, evaporation can sometimes happen in our life due to temperatures.
-
Analytical Skills - Chemistry helps us develop Analytical Skills which can helps identify what is around us and how it is made.
-
Career Oppo​rtunities - By understanding chemistry more, you will get the chance to meet Career Opportunities that can offer you a job.
-
Physical Changes - Physical Changes can happen in our lives which involves things being transformed with any sings of new substances being produced.
-
Chemical Changes - Chemical changes can also happen in our lives when something new is being made by certain changes involving around chemicals.
-
Atoms​
-
Molecules
-
Compounds​
-
Cooking and Baking - Cooking and baking has both physical and chemical changes in them.
-
Health and Medicine​ - Chemistry is essential for Health and Medicine because it helps us understand the digestions takes place in our body everyday. The chemical processes helps our body break down food into nutrients. Pharmaceuticals (type of medicine) are instructed based on chemical operations that target specific biological processes which improves health conditions/outcomes.
