Concept explainers
Interpretation: This is to be discussed that the study of chemistry is so intimidating for many students.
Concept introduction: Chemistry is the study of structure, composition, properties of matter is known as chemistry. It is the part of the physical sciences which help to describe and interpret the world. It is the science of atoms/molecules and their transformations.
Answer to Problem 1A
Every matter is made of different types of chemicals. So, the study of chemistry is essential to everyone.
Explanation of Solution
Chemistry is included in every activity we do or around us. Chemistry is so fundamental to our world. It plays asignificant role in everyone’s lives. It occasionally called as "central science" because it links another science, such as geology, physics, biology, and environmental science. There are some reasons to study the importance of chemistry which are mentioned below:
- This subject plays a fundamental role in the field of science.
- This subject helps to gain knowledgeabout substance’s (matter) characteristics such as properties, a structure, and a composition.
- This subject teaches an individual about substance’s physical changes and chemical changes.
- This subject provides us methods for the life’s isolation.
- This subject helps to save drugs from natural resources to make drugs and medicines.
- This subject helps scientists to discover new substance by doing experiments.
- This subject helps us to understand the reasons for environmental degradation.
