• Chemistry is all about the nature of all mater around us Air, Water, Metals, Plastics, Drugs…
• It is all about how they react and how they change…
Chemistry Around Us
FromFireworks to Space shuttles..Medicine to Agriculture..Computers to iPods..Fuel for Vehicles to Oil to Cook..Industrial Operations to Cooking..Refrigeration units to Radios..
Chemistry Rules them all..
History of Chemistry•The practice of Chemistry started thousands
of years ago, but not as a Science. It was primarily directed to turn all kinds of substances into Gold by early Chemists, who were known as Alchemists.
•The word “Chemistry” is thus derived from the word “Alchemy”.
•The Alchemists made important contributions to Chemistry. They developedmany techniques used bymodern chemists likedistillation, filtration, etc..
The real purpose of chemistry stems from the fact that it serves as a common interface betweenpractically all other science.
Human endeavors have driven the science of Chemistry from making
of dye topetrochemicals, from designing fabrics
to space suits..
Chemical Synthesis• Chemists create things through purposeful
execution of chemical reactions.• These products are synthesized from
simpler, more readily available startingmaterials..
The Synthesis is not only carried in synthetic condition but also by use of plants and microbes..
Why learning
Chemistry is Important?
Goal 1: Eradicate extreme poverty and
hunger
Goal 2: Achieve universal primary
education
Goal 3: Promote gender equality and
empower women
Goal 4: Reduce child mortality
Goal 5: Improve maternal health
Goal 6: Combat HIV/AIDS, malaria and other
diseases
Goal 7: Ensure environmental sustainability
Goal 8: Develop a Global Partnership for
Development
CHEMISTRY is vital to achieving these goals!
United Nations Millennium Goals
IYC 2011
Our understanding of the fundamental nature of our world is grounded in chemistry. Molecular transformations are basic to production of foodstuffs, medicines, fuels and materials – essentially all manufactured and extracted products. We will rely on this science to maintain a sustainable, wholesome environment for all the earth. IYC 2011 is a unique opportunity for everyone to celebrate the central contributions of chemistry.
Thank YouEnjoy the Chemical Life..!!
