| Brief Introduction of Daily Chemistry |
Have you ever
wondered about the things happened around you and asked yourself about this and
that? Why did it happen? For examples, maybe you have ever thought about the
slag on your kettle when you boiled some water. Or why your white clothes got
yellow after several wash? How detergent can pull out stain from your clothes? How
carbonate water gave the fresh feeling to your throat? Those phenomenon maybe
bring out your mind for so many questions..yups!! That thing is inseparable
from chemical reaction.
So what comes
to your mind when you heard 'Chemistry'? For beginner or those who didn't learn
chemistry properly, maybe will think chemistry identically with bomb, poison,
food additive or another dangerous thing. Actually, not all chemical substance
is dangerous, there are a lot of very useful unrealized substance closed with
us.
Writers who
studied chemistry at their collage often had a pathetic feeling when a lot of
people had a wrong idea with chemistry and its substances. Basically is not the
thing about 'chemical substance' on something or 'chemical substance' that had
a role on some negative thing happened, it is about the amount and the
utilizing of that substance.
Chemistry
studied about composition of a substance along with the participate alteration
in it. As it said on one of chemistry's book by Ralph H. Petrucci and F.
Geoffrey Herring that chemistry is the center of all branch of science. With
studying chemistry properly you will got the connectivity to another
disciplines, so as a writer we had a very big wish of you to get a lot of
knowledge that will bring you to another field such as Biology, Physics and
Health.
Science is not
only focusing on concepts or theories but also talking about the scientific
method. Chemistry as one of science closely related with experiment. To find a
theory we have to meet observation, made a hypothesis then arrange an
experiment to make a test of our previous hypothesis. So with studying
chemistry you can improve your creativity and applied it to our daily life.
You don’t need
to worry about your present knowledge of chemistry because we will talk about
it in a simply way to make it easy to be understand along with the simple
examples found around us. Don't think it harshly, look around at your house and
stand at your kitchen. You will found salt, yups salt as our basic seasoning is
a chemical substance too.
Salt is formed
from two different chemical compounds, Sodium (Na) and Chloride (Cl). Salt had
another function other than just seasoning, it was releasing your body muscle
from stress, mix it on some warm water you used to take a shower. The other
characteristic of salt is as anti-microbe which can minimize wound inflammation.
So it same with sugar, maybe you already know that sugar is categorized as a
simply carbohydrate which contains chemical compound, Carbon (C), Hydrogen (H)
and Oxygen (O). Sugar also had another function such as a natural food
additive, stain removal, etc. We will try to share another use of that two
previous and also a lot of chemical substance in this blog. So stay tuned and
aware of it!!
