Sustainable Chemistry Terry Collins* Chemistry has an important role to play in achieving a sustainable civilization on Earth. The present economy remains utterly dependent on a massive inward flow of natural resources that includes vast amounts of nonrenewables. This is followed by a reverse flow of economically spent matter back to the ecosphere. Chemical sustainability problems are determined largely by these economy-ecosphere materials flows (see the figure‚ below)‚ which current chemistry education

Chemistry 12 Unit 2 Notes - Equilibrium Chemistry 12 Tutorial 5 – The Equilibrium Constant (Keq) What is Keq ? The "K" in Keq stands for "Constant". The "eq" means that the reaction is at equilibrium. Very roughly‚ Keq tells you the ratio of Products/Reactants for a given reaction at equilibrium at a certain temperature. [Products] [Reactants] K eq = It’s not quite this simple when we deal with real substances. Let’s take an example. It has been found for the reaction: 2HI(g )

Chemistry and Society Chemistry 110 March 17‚ 2012 Introduction Chemistry is very important in our lives even though we may not realize that chemistry is everywhere. This paper serves to examine the ways in which chemistry is relevant in everyday life and in society. It will also examine the difference between accuracy and precision and provide examples of when accuracy and precision are crucial in measurements and why society depends on these measurements to be accurate and precise ( Tam

Chemistry of Enamel Stephanie Gabrielle Estrada Texas A&M University- Corpus Christi Chemistry of Enamel Dentistry is a branch of medicine‚ in order to understand medicine including diseases related to the mouth‚ one must have a background knowledge over the chemistry of the enamel and how it interacts and takes place with compounds that are used in crowns‚ veneers and fillings. Enamel consists of approximately 96% inorganic minerals and 4% organic material. These inorganic components

Organic chemistry Organic chemistry is one of the ‘branches’ of chemistry and is seen as distinct from other branches‚ such as inorganic and physical chemistry. It can be described as the chemistry living processes (often referred to as biochemistry) but extends beyond that. It focuses almost entirely on the chemistry of covalently bonded carbon molecules and as well as life processes‚ it includes the chemistry of other types of compounds‚ including plastics‚ petrochemicals‚ drugs and paint

Chemistry and cosmetics Cosmetics have been around since almost the beginning of time. Egyptian women used kohl to darken their eyelids‚ Cleopatra was even said to have bathed in milk to achieve a soft smooth completion. In Greece‚ women used lead carbonate (a white powder) to obtain a pale complexion‚ which probably wasn’t worth it seeing how it cost them their lives! Anyway‚ cosmetics are no modern phenomenon! Today it is a big business‚ making about $12 billion

Chemistry 12 Unit 1 - Reaction Kinetics Chemistry 12 Worksheet 1-3 - Reaction Mechanisms 1. It is known that compounds called chlorofluorocarbons (C.F.C.s) (eg. CFCl3) will break up in the presence of ultraviolet radiation‚ such as found in the upper atmosphere‚ forming single chlorine atoms: CFCl3 CFCl2 + Cl The Cl atoms then react with Ozone (O3) as outlined in the following mechanism. Step 1: Step 2: Cl + O3 ClO + O2 ClO + O Cl + O2 (single "O" atoms occur naturally in the atmosphere

Chemistry and Society Jessica Yadira Lopez CHM/110 November 10‚ 2014 Jennifer Cruz Chemistry and Society Chemistry plays a huge and important role in society; Society depends on the accuracy and precision of measurements for products sold by the retail industry‚ such as a gallon of gasoline‚ a bushel of corn‚ or a liter of bottled water. These measurements have to be precise and accurate when it this relates to how farmers sell their products such as wheat‚ corn‚ milk‚ peanuts‚ and cotton‚ by
