CHEMICALS IN COSMETICS (OVERVIEW) FACTSHEET A cosmetic is a substance or preparation that is designed to be used on any external part of the human body – including in the mouth – to change the odours of the body‚ to change its appearance‚ cleanse it‚ keep it in good condition‚ perfume it or protect it. Cosmetics include soap‚ shampoo‚ moisturiser‚ hair dye‚ perfume‚ lipstick‚ mascara and many other products‚ but do not include products regulated as therapeutic goods (medicines). Cosmetics are made

Chemical Bonding Chemical compounds are formed by the joining of two or more atoms. A stable compound occurs when the total energy of the combination has lower energy than the separated atoms. The bound state implies a net attractive force between the atoms ... a chemical bond. The two extreme cases of chemical bonds are: Covalent Bonds Covalent chemical bonds involve the sharing of a pair of valence electrons by two atoms‚ in contrast to the transfer of electrons in ionic bonds. Such bonds lead

absolute zero (-459 degrees Fahrenheit‚ 0 degrees Kelvin‚ -273 degrees Celsius) to liquid nitrogen temperatures (-321 F‚ 77 K‚ -196 C)‚ they have no electrical resistance. The temperature at which electrical resistance is zero is called the critical temperature (Tc) and varies with the individual material. For practical purposes‚ critical temperatures are achieved by cooling materials with either liquid helium or liquid nitrogen. The following table shows the critical temperatures of various superconductors:

light‚ which is evidence of a chemical change. The second reaction occurred as a result of solid magnesium reacting with hydrochloric acid. The reaction produced heat and bubbles‚ both indications of a chemical change. A wood splint was used to determine that the gas produced was hydrogen gas‚ hence the other product is magnesium dichloride. In the third reaction‚ ammonium carbonate was heated to decompose into two gases‚ due to the absence of anything solid or liquid following the reaction. A wood

changes are used to describe matter. A property is a trait of matter‚ when that sample of matter is in a fixed state. There are two different types of properties: physical properties and chemical properties. A change is something that alters the properties of a substance. There are two types of changes: chemical changes and physical changes. A physical property is a property that can be observed without changing the makeup (or composition) of a substance. Some examples of a physical properties

Purpose: To Inform Topic: Chemical Warfare Intro 1) Chemical weapons are extremely toxic chemicals which differ from explosive weaponry. Middle ages and renaissance are documented to have used poisonous chemicals on individuals. Chemical warfare is use of chemical agents to kill or incapacitate the enemy. 2) Today I will inform you of different chemical agents. Since World War I‚ several types of agents have been developed into weapons. These chemical weapons include (I) Choking

Chemical Equation Chemical Reaction: C10H8+ 12 O2 → CO2 + 4H2 O (Naphthalene) Combustion Introduction of the Product: Naphthalene is an organic compound with formula C10H8. It is the simplest polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon‚ and is a white crystalline solid with a characteristic odor that is detectable at concentrations as low as 0.08 ppm by mass. As an aromatic hydrocarbon‚ naphthalene’s structure consists of a fused pair of benzene rings. It is best known as the
