Chemical Reactions in Everyday Life Science being a subject of common interest‚ it is very intriguing to analyze visual experiments happening in day-to-day life. There are a plethora of products that you use everyday‚ which are formulated with application of chemical reaction. Say for example; toothpaste‚ soap‚ shampoo‚ cleaning agent‚ etc. are all results of chemical reactions. Following are some of the most profound chemical reactions‚ which we encounter in everyday life : Aerobic Respiration

Oil has had a profound impact on the world civilization than any other single natural resource. It is the principle energy source sustaining our civilization and economy in the world. Currently‚ oil is among the world’s most important natural resource‚ without it‚ the world would not function as effective and as efficient as it does today (Science Classified 2008). “Oil has become a very decisive element in defining the politics‚ rhetoric and diplomacy of states” (Agbebi 2009‚ p.1).

Oil Drilling Have you ever seen an animal covered in sludge‚ helpless and weak? Offshore oil drilling is one of our world’s biggest concerns. Offshore oil drilling is the discovery of finding oil or gasoline resources underwater. Usually the oil is found off the coasts of each continent and can also be found in lakes and small seas. Drilling for oil provides the energy to make fuels for cars and other machinery. Many different platforms can be used for offshore oil drilling such as drill ships

Wildlife & Conservation Statistics Extinction of Species • Every 20 minutes‚ the world adds another 3‚500 human lives but loses one or more entire species of animal or plant life - at least 27‚000 species per year. (Source: PBS) • At the present rates of extinction‚ as many as 20% of the world’s 7-15 million species could be gone in the next 30 years. This rate of extinction has been unprecedented since the disappearance of dinosaurs 65 million years ago (Source: WWF). Habitat Destruction (Source:

are prime examples of the implementation of gas laws. The physics are based on the simple principle that warm air rises in cooler air. Hot air has less mass per unit of volume. The relevant gas law in use is Charless Law‚ which is V1/T1=V2/T2. The law states that raising the temperature (T1) will also increase the volume (V2)‚ in order to keep the equation true. Generally‚ air is heated through the use of propane burners. When ignited‚ the volume of the gas increases but the balloon cannot expand much

Gas Chromatography Purpose: The purpose of the gas chromatography lab is to find out how different substances interact with the surface of a solid. Chromatography is a separation technique that depends on the relative distribution of the components of a mixture between a mobile phase and a solid stationary phase. Chromatography measures the tendency of a substance to interact with the surface of a solid or to remain in a mobile phase. When doing a chromatography lab the mobile phase has to
