Pure and Applied Chemistry 1.1 Pure and Applied Chemistry Pure and Applied Chemistry How are pure and applied chemistry related?

Pure and Applied Chemistry 1.1 Pure and Applied Chemistry Pure chemistry is the pursuit of chemical knowledge for its own sake. Applied chemistry is research that is directed toward a practical goal or application.

Pure and Applied Chemistry 1.1 Pure and Applied Chemistry Pure research can lead directly to an application, but an application can exist before research is done to explain how it works.

Pure and Applied Chemistry 1.1 Pure and Applied Chemistry Nylon In the early 1930’s, Wallace Carothers produced nylon while researching cotton and silk. A team of scientists and engineers applied Carothers’s research to the commercial production of nylon. Long, thin nylon fibers are woven into the fabric used in this backpack. Other objects that can be made from nylon are jackets, fishing lines, toothbrush bristles, and ropes.

Pure and Applied Chemistry 1.1 Pure and Applied Chemistry Aspirin Long before researchers figured out how aspirin works, people used it to relieve pain, and doctors prescribed it for patients who were at risk for a heart attack. In 1971, it was discovered that aspirin can block the production of a group of chemicals that cause pain and lead to the formation of blood clots. This is an example of pure research.

Pure and Applied Chemistry 1.1 Pure and Applied Chemistry Technology Technology is the means by which a society provides its members with those things needed and desired. Technology allows humans to do some things more quickly or with less effort. There are debates about the risks and benefits of technology.

1.1 Why Study Chemistry? Why Study Chemistry? What are three general reasons to study chemistry?

1.1 Why Study Chemistry? Chemistry can be useful in explaining the natural world, preparing people for career opportunities, and producing informed citizens.

Explaining the Natural World 1.1 Why Study Chemistry? Explaining the Natural World Chemistry can help you satisfy your natural desire to understand how things work.

1.1 Why Study Chemistry? Preparing For a Career Many careers require knowledge of chemistry. A photographer uses chemical processes to control the development of photographs in a darkroom. Even after the invention of the digital camera, many photographers still work with film. They use chemical processes to develop film and produce prints in a darkroom. Inferring Why isn’t film developed under natural light conditions?

Chemistry 1.1 Chapter 1: Section 2 Chemistry Far and Wide

1.2 Materials Materials What impact do chemists have on materials, energy, medicine, agriculture, the environment, and the study of the universe?

Chemists design materials to fit specific needs. 1.2 Materials Chemists design materials to fit specific needs.

1.2 Materials In 1948, George de Mestral took a close look at the burrs that stuck to his clothing. He saw that each burr was covered with many tiny hooks. In 1955, de Mestral patented the design for the hook-and- loop tapes. These are used as fasteners in shoes and gloves. This is a magnified view of hook-and-loop tape. Color was added to the photo to highlight the structures. Classifying Does the photograph show a macroscopic or a microscopic view of the tape? Explain.

1.2 Materials This story illustrates two ways of looking at the world—the macroscopic view and the microscopic view. Burrs belong to the macroscopic world, the world of objects that are large enough to see with the unaided eye. The hooks belong to the microscopic world, or the world of objects that can be seen only under magnification.

1.2 Energy Energy Chemists play an essential role in finding ways to conserve energy, produce energy, and store energy.

1.2 Energy Conservation One of the easiest ways to conserve energy is through insulation. Insulation acts as a barrier to heat flow from the inside to the outside of a house or from the outside to the inside of a freezer.

1.2 Energy SEAgel is a modern insulation that is light enough to float on soap bubbles. This insulation is light enough to float on soap bubbles yet is very effective at preventing heat transfer.

1.2 Energy Production The burning of coal, petroleum, and natural gas is a major source of energy. These materials are called fossil fuels. Oil from the soybeans is used to make biodiesel. Oil from soybeans can be used in a substitute for regular diesel fuel. Predicting The supply of diesel fuel is limited. Is the supply of soybeans limited?

1.2 Energy Storage Batteries are devices that use chemicals to store energy that will be released as electric current. For some applications, it important to have batteries that can be recharged rather than thrown away. Digital cameras, wireless phones, and laptop computers use rechargeable batteries.

Medicine and Biotechnology 1.2 Medicine and Biotechnology Medicine and Biotechnology Chemistry supplies the medicines, materials, and technology that doctors use to treat their patients.

Medicine and Biotechnology 1.2 Medicine and Biotechnology Medicines There are over 2000 prescription drugs. Many drugs are effective because they interact in a specific way with chemicals in cells. Knowledge of the structure and function of these target chemicals helps a chemist design safe and effective drugs.

Medicine and Biotechnology 1.2 Medicine and Biotechnology Materials Chemistry can supply materials to repair or replace body parts. Artificial hips and knees made from metals and plastics can replace worn- out joints and allow people to walk again without pain.

Medicine and Biotechnology 1.2 Medicine and Biotechnology Biotechnology From 1990 to 2003, scientists worldwide worked on the Human Genome Project. They identified the genes that comprise human DNA—about 30,000. The discovery of the structure of DNA led to the development of biotechnology. The discovery of the structure of DNA led to the development of biotechnology. This computer graphics model shows a small segment of DNA.

Medicine and Biotechnology 1.2 Medicine and Biotechnology Biotechnology applies science to the production of biological products or processes. The discovery of the structure of DNA led to the development of biotechnology. The conditions in a bioreactor are controlled so that the bacteria produce as much of the product as possible.

1.2 Agriculture Agriculture Chemists help to develop more productive crops and safer, more effective ways to protect crops.

1.2 Agriculture Productivity One way to track productivity is to measure the amount of edible food that is grown on a given unit of land. Chemists test soil to see if it contains the right chemicals to grow a particular crop and recommend ways to improve the soil.

Chemists also help determine when a crop needs water. 1.2 Agriculture Chemists also help determine when a crop needs water. If the genes from a jellyfish that glows are transferred to a potato plant, the plant glows when it needs to be watered. If genes from this jellyfish (Aequaria victoria) are transferred to a potato plant, the plant glows when it needs to be watered. Predicting How does the modified plant help a farmer to conserve water?

1.2 Agriculture Crop Protection Chemists sometimes use chemicals produced by insects to fight insect pests. The plastic tube wrapped around the stem of the tomato plant contains a chemical that a female pinworm moth emits to attract male moths. It interferes with the mating process so that fewer pinworms are produced. In the plastic tube wrapped around the tomato stem, there is a chemical that attracts male pinworm moths. This process reduces the rate of mating between female and male moths, and the number of pinworms produced.

1.2 The Environment The Environment A pollutant is a material found in air, water, or soil that is harmful to humans or other organisms. Chemists help to identify pollutants and prevent pollution.

1.2 The Environment Identify Pollutants Until the mid-1900s, lead was used in many products, including paints and gasoline. A study done in 1971 showed that the level of lead that is harmful to humans is much lower than had been thought, especially for children. Even low levels of lead in the blood can permanently damage the nervous system of a growing child.

1.2 The Environment Prevent Pollution The strategies used to prevent lead poisoning include testing children’s blood for lead, regulation of home sales to families with young children, and public awareness campaigns with posters. This poster was used to warn people about the danger to children from lead-based paint.

1.2 The Environment The percentage of children with elevated blood levels has decreased since the 1970s. This graph shows data on children in the United States with higher than acceptable levels of lead in their blood. INTERPRETING GRAPHS a. Analyzing Data What percent of children had elevated lead levels in the 1970s? b. Calculating If a percentage point equals 200,000 children, how many children had elevated lead levels in 2000? c. Drawing Conclusions Explain the dramatic drop in the percentage of children affected by lead poisoning between 1980 and 1988.

1.2 The Universe The Universe To study the universe, chemists gather data from afar and analyze matter that is brought back to Earth.

1.2 The Universe Chemists have analyzed more than 850 pounds of moon rocks that were brought back to Earth. Some of these rocks are similar to rocks formed by volcanoes on Earth, suggesting that vast oceans of molten lava once covered the moon's surface. With help from NASA, chemists study matter from other bodies in the solar system. Apollo astronauts brought rocks from the moon back to Earth.

1.2 Section Quiz. 1. Choose the correct words for the spaces. To meet the demand for energy, chemists find ways to __________ energy and __________ energy. conserve, produce conserve, use produce, use convert, store

1.2 Section Quiz. 2. Which of the following is an example of biotechnology? using soybeans to produce biodiesel replacing diseased arteries with plastic tubes testing the lead content of blood transferring a jellyfish gene into a potato plant

In 1945, Fleming shared a Nobel Prize for Medicine with Howard Florey and Ernst Chain, who led the team that isolated penicillin.

1.3 Alchemy Alchemy How did alchemy lay the groundwork for chemistry?

1.3 Alchemy Alchemists developed the tools and techniques for working with chemicals.

1.3 Alchemy Alchemists developed processes for separating mixtures and purifying chemicals. They designed equipment that is still in use today including beakers, flasks, tongs, funnels, and the mortar and pestle. A bowl-shaped mortar and a club-shaped pestle are used to grind or crush materials such as herbs, spices, and paint pigments. The mortar and pestle in the photograph is made of porcelain, which is a hard material. Mortar and Pestle

An Experimental Approach to Science 1.3 An Experimental Approach to Science An Experimental Approach to Science How did Lavoisier help to transform chemistry?

An Experimental Approach to Science 1.3 An Experimental Approach to Science Lavoisier helped to transform chemistry from a science of observation to the science of measurement that it is today.

An Experimental Approach to Science 1.3 An Experimental Approach to Science Lavoisier designed a balance that could measure mass to the nearest 0.0005 gram. He also showed that oxygen is required for a material to burn. Reconstruction of Lavoisier’s Laboratory This reconstruction of Lavoisier’s laboratory is in a museum in Paris, France. Interpreting Photographs What objects do you recognize that are similar to objects that you use in the laboratory?

The Scientific Method What are the steps in the scientific method? 1.3

1.3 The Scientific Method The scientific method is a logical, systematic approach to the solution of a scientific problem. Steps in the scientific method include making observations, testing hypotheses, and developing theories.

1.3 The Scientific Method Making Observations When you use your senses to obtain information, you make an observation. Suppose you try to turn on a flashlight and it does not light. An observation can lead to a question: What’s wrong with the flashlight? Observation is an essential step in the scientific method.

A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for an observation. 1.3 The Scientific Method Testing Hypotheses A hypothesis is a proposed explanation for an observation. You guess that the flashlight needs new batteries. You can test your hypothesis by putting new batteries in the flashlight. If the flashlight lights, you can be fairly certain that your hypothesis is true.

1.3 The Scientific Method An experiment is a procedure that is used to test a hypothesis. When you design experiments, you deal with variables, or factors that can change. The variable that you change during an experiment is the manipulated variable, or independent variable. The variable that is observed during the experiment is the responding variable, or dependent variable.

A theory is a well-tested explanation for a broad set of observations. 1.3 The Scientific Method Developing Theories Once a hypothesis meets the test of repeated experimentation, it may become a theory. A theory is a well-tested explanation for a broad set of observations. A theory may need to be changed at some point in the future to explain new observations or experimental results.

1.3 The Scientific Method Scientific Laws A scientific law is a concise statement that summarizes the results of many observations and experiments. A scientific law doesn’t try to explain the relationship it describes. That explanation requires a theory.

Steps in the Scientific Method 1.3 The Scientific Method Steps in the Scientific Method The steps in the scientific method do not have to occur in the order shown. Comparing and Contrasting How are a hypothesis and a theory similar? How are they different?

Collaboration and Communication 1.3 Collaboration and Communication Collaboration and Communication What role do collaboration and communication play in science?

Collaboration and Communication 1.3 Collaboration and Communication No matter how talented the players on a team, one player cannot ensure victory for the team. Individuals must collaborate, or work together, for the good of the team. When scientists collaborate and communicate, they increase the likelihood of a successful outcome.

Collaboration and Communication 1.3 Collaboration and Communication Collaboration Scientists choose to collaborate for different reasons. Some research problems are so complex that no one person could have all of the knowledge, skills, and resources to solve the problem. Scientists might conduct research for an industry in exchange for equipment and the time to do the research.

Collaboration and Communication 1.3 Collaboration and Communication Collaboration isn’t always a smooth process. You will likely work on a team in the laboratory. If so, you may face some challenges. But you can also experience the benefits of collaboration. Working in a group can be challenging, but it can also be rewarding. Applying Concepts What steps in the scientific method are these students using?

Collaboration and Communication 1.3 Collaboration and Communication Communication Scientists communicate face to face, by e-mail, by phone, and at international conferences. Scientists publish their results in scientific journals. Articles are published only after being reviewed by experts in the author’s field. Communication between scientists can occur face to face. These chemists are using the model projected on the screen to discuss the merits of a new medicine.
