Chemistry is used to determine the causes smog that hangs over our cities.
By determining what causes such smog, scientist can develop a better catalytic converter in the cars exhaust system to filter out harmful gasses. Chemistry led to the discovery of chlorofluorocarbons (CFC). Chemist further investigated and found that CFC is the main cause for the depletion of the ozone layer. The discovery of this organic compound led to the ban of all items containing CFC. Chemistry also makes our everyday lives easier.
Chemistry was used to create the first transatlantic telegraph cable in 1858. This Invention made it faster, and easier to communicate to other people 7,000 miles away. Every day, people use products containing substances that were developed by chemists. Products ranging from cleaning teeth, to fighting bacteria, and the clothing you are wearing. Food is also another example of a product created by a chemist. Throughout this essay I have addressed many areas that chemistry and science play a huge role in. These areas range from saving human lives, preventing pollution, and making everyday lives easier. The importance of science and chemistry is not
