chemistry is about the things we need and use in our daily lives-air,water,food,clothing,medicine,dwelling,telecommunication,transportation,fuel,etc.our culure and our environment are somehow shaped by the development of our knowlege of science.chemistry particularly,has made significant contributions to society.

Other chemical products discoverd accidentally included perkin’s dye. Schoenbein’s enplosives,and baekeland’s plastics.these accidetal discoveries,however,cannot be attributed to sheer luck. These people were able to immediately relate their chance observations of possible applications to a given problem because their minds were prepared. They…[Read more]

There is no single method by which scientists solve problems.different people seek solutions to a certain problem in different ways.though some scientists fail to find the solution to a certain problem,they sometimes discover something else of value by chance or serendipity.the word serendipity came from the story the princess of serendip.these…[Read more]

Sxnthetic fabrics are str0ng,lightweight,waterproof,and free from attacks of molds and m0nths.they are unlike natural fabrics such as c0tt0n ,silk,and linen.nyl0n fibers are extensively used in stockings,umbrellas and raincoats,sails,tents,backpacks,parachutes,sportswear and sports equipment,and carpets.

Ask your grandparents if they had used plastic bags and other plasticware when they were your age.suggest solutions to the big polluti0n problem caused by plastics. The chemistry of polymers has greatly advanced.it is n0w possible for chemists to design polymers with different sets of properties to suit a wide range of useful products.

Kappalycus alvarezii or red seaweed is cultivated in the philippines.it is the source of carageenan, an important ingredient in many industrial products. synthetic polymers are commonly kn0wn as plastics.they are examples of how chemists have been able to mke new materials never seen before,out of ordinary natural things like air,oil,petroleum,and…[Read more]

Its true we can use guava leaves as a herbal medicine.also the garlic its help to prevent cholester0l.
Chemistry seeks to find out what living and n0nliving things are made of and to learn h0w their properties relate to their c0mpositi0ns. It also studies how and why matter changes and the acc0mpanying energy changes. This kn0wledge is useful in producing new materials or products to answer specific needs. To illustrate,filipinos has practiced…[Read more]
