Unlike the brain where a person can continue to be “alive” without any electrical activity‚ without a heartbeat‚ a person cannot live. The average person doesn’t ever think about how or why their hearts lub dub every minute of every day until they die. For someone whose heart doesn’t beat properly‚ the lub dub is a frequent worry. Brandon England is one of those people

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

4.02 chemistry notes Law of Conservation of Mass One of the most important principles of chemistry is the law of conservation of mass. This law states that matter is neither created nor destroyed during an ordinary chemical reaction. In other words‚ all of the atoms that were present at the beginning of a reaction are present at the end of the reaction—they have just been rearranged to bond differently and form new substances. It is important that chemical equations represent this law by always

Major Chemistry questions: 1. Analyse the progress in the development and use of a named bioploymer. This anslysis should name the specific enzyme(s) used or organism used to synthesise the material and an evaluation of the use or potential use of the polymer produced related to it’s properties. Polyhydroxybutanoate (PHB) Progress Analysis: - Bacteria first used to make PHB in 1925 at Pastuer Institute in Paris. - In 1970’s adopted by Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) – Alcaligenes

The chemistry of hairspray What is hairspray: introduction Hair spray (or hair lacquer) is a common household aqueous solution that is used to keep hair stiff or in a certain style. Weaker than hair gel‚ hair wax‚ or glue‚ it is sprayed to hold styles for a short period of time. Using a pump or aerosol spray nozzle it sprays evenly over the hair. Hairspray was first developed and manufactured in 1948 by Chase Products Company‚ based in Broadview‚ Illinois.Its active ingredient is a suitable

Chemistry Notes Cracking: * 2 types of Cracking; Catalytic cracking and Steam/thermal cracking. * Catalytic cracking‚ using a catalyst called Zeolite (Aluminosilicate)‚ 500 degrees C‚ in the absence of air and at pressures just above atmospheric * Thermal cracking is done without a catalyst; steam is passed through very hot metal tubes at 700-1000 degrees C at just above atmospheric pressure. * This is used to break down longer chains of unsalable hydrocarbons into smaller salable
