Lesson 1 - Introduction to Chemistry
What is chemistry?
A branch of science that deals with the study of composition, structure, and properties of the matter and the changes it undergoes in natural process and planned experiments.
It is a branch of chemistry that is obtaining, processing, and communicating information about the composition and structure of matter.
Analytic Chemistry
It is a branch of chemistry that is a study of carbon compounds.
Organic Chemistry
It is a branch of chemistry that is a study of non-carbon compounds.
Inorganic Chemistry
It is a branch of chemistry that deals with the physical structure of chemical compounds.
Physical Chemistry
It is a branch of chemistry that explores the chemical process within and related to living organisms.
Bio-chemistry
It identify possible components of substances based on color reactions, odor, reactivity but do not determine its amounts.
Qualitative Test
It employs instrumentation methods like atomic absorption, spectrophotometry to determine components, concentrations purities of substances.
Quantitative Test
They assist in the identification of unknown materials found at a crime scene.
Forensic Chemists
It is the field of health and well-being.
Medical Science
It is the field makes inventions, discoveries, innovations, and structural improvements.
Science and Engineering
It is responsible for mitigation of pets.
Agrochemical or Agrichemical
It speeds up a chemical reaction.
Catalysts
It is the process of adding a catalyst to facilitate a reaction.
Catalysis
They are water and oil insoluble and include natural and synthetic products and paper and paper products.
Pigments
It is water soluble.
Dyes
Also called as central science because it links physics and mathematics, biology and medicine, and earth and environmental sciences.
Chemistry
It encompasses the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment.
Science
It is the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes.
Technology
It is from anti meaning 'against' and pyretic meaning 'feverish' is a substance that reduces fever.
Antipyretic
They are medicines used to relieve pain without putting you to sleep and also known as painkillers or pain relievers.
Analgesics
It is an analgesic and antipyretic drug, a common painkiller and is used to treat aches and pain and can be used to reduce high temperature. One example of this is biogesic.
Paracetamol
It is a pain reliever for headache, dental pain, menstrual cramps, muscle aches or arthritis and it is a Non-steroidal Anti-inflammatory Drug.
Ibuprofen
It is considered as biological preparation and it provides active required immunity to a particular infectious disease and it contains an agent that resembles a disease causing microorganism and is often made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe, it's toxins, or one of its surface proteins.
Vaccine
It is the study of substances that may be considered as food or part of a food provides medical or health benefits, including the prevention and treatment of disease.
Neutraceutical
It describes the use of organisms in biological processes to provide food chemicals and services to meet the needs of humans and it includes agriculture, horticulture and many other aspects of applied biology.
Biotechnology
It is any hazard that leads to less or injury.
Risk
Anything that promotes wellbeing or has positive effect can be economic social or psychological.
Benefits
It involves calculation of a desirability quotient or DQ and it also includes determination of the effects of science and technology and the determination on how and when benefits out way to risks and it is a comparison between risks of a situation and its benefits. It's goal is to figure out whether the risk or benefit is most significant and it is often used in medicine it is how medical researchers figure out whether certain procedures are worth doing and what types of people will benefit.
