Interpretation:
The importance of the study of changes in the world at a submicroscopic level needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Chemistry plays a fundamental role in science and is often intertwined with the branches of science. Chemists examine the composition of solution (or matter) along with its properties.
Answer to Problem 10SSC
Chemists seek to describe the submicroscopic events (or actions) that head to macroscopic observations.
Explanation of Solution
Chemistry helps to know the properties, structure, composition, characteristics, and physical and chemical changes of any substances or matter. Chemistry is important to everyday life because it provides methods for the isolation of life. Chemists carefully explain the properties they examine in terms of quantities. All the studied details are on the level of molecule moreover with their component atoms.
Chemistry is usually portrayed at 3 different levels (or stages) of representation. These levels are symbolic, submicroscopic, and macroscopic. It combines to improve the descriptions of chemical concepts.
It is important to examine changes in the world at a submicroscopic level because changes at this level can induce changes at macroscopic level. This scale (macroscopic) is a kind of length scale. This scale also measure objects which are big enough to be noticeable clearly with the naked eye. It means it is visible without any magnifying optical instruments.
Chemists carefully measure reaction rates, substance proportions, and other properties of chemicals.
