The Chemistry of Toothpaste Toothpaste is not a new thing. It has been traced back to Ancient Egypt. They used a powdered rock and vinegar‚ which created a chemical reaction that dissolves the plaque on teeth. In 1900’s people used hydrogen peroxide and baking soda or chalk‚ pulverised brisk and salt as a toothpaste. Toothpastes today‚ are mostly made up of abrasives‚ surfactants‚ a detergent‚ a thickener‚ a moisturizer‚ water‚ flavouring agents‚ coloring‚ sweeteners‚ fluoride and desensitizers

Chemistry is the science of dealing with the compounds‚ elements‚ and molecular structure of matter. Essentially‚ chemistry is the science of examining substances and objects to find out what they’re made of and how the react to different conditions. All projects Accelerate Rusting To demonstrate how a chemical reaction from vinegar‚ water‚ and bleach can accelerate the rusting process of steel. Acids And Bases To determine which chemicals are acids and which are bases. Apple Mummy To

Spilled Salt By: Barbara Neely Something I liked about this story was that it had a realistic plot. It’s completely possible for a mother to have her son go to jail and come back unexpected. This actually happened to someone I knew‚ they were in jail for raping a girl‚ when they really didn’t and his mom had a hard time dealing with him being back from jail when really she just wanted him to leave her life completely. Something I didn’t like about the story was the character of the mom‚ she seemed

Chemistry in Photography Background A photograph is an image made by a photo-chemical reaction which records the impression of light on a surface coated with silver atoms. The reaction is possible due to the light-sensitive properties of silver halide crystals. Equation form for silver halides: Ag + + e - Ag Species produced include: Ag2+‚ Ag2o‚ Ag3+‚ Ag3o‚ Ag4+‚ Ag4o In 1556‚ the alchemist Fabricius was the first to discover that light can photochemically react with these crystals to
