I'm doing a research project on the applications of chemistry to real life?
I want to know if there are issues out there that interesting concern: the sport and / or entertainment, environment and industry, manufacture or business as: Do you know of any online sources of good quality in these issues. The subject should include the concepts of each of the following units: Unit 1: Organic chemistry (ie, functional groups, hydrocarbons, organic halides, alcohols and ethers, aldehydes and Keyon, carboxylic acids, esters, amines and amides, etc. ..), polymers, nylon stockings, and Food (Food can include proteins, nucleic acids, and fats and oils) Unit: 2-atomic theory (the Bohr atomic theory, quantum numbers, atomic structure and periodic table, waves and orbital mechanics, and applications of quantum mechanics), chemical bonding (Lewis theory, the theory of Vesper, the molecules polar intermolecular forces, and the structure and properties of solids) Unit 3: ThermoChem
When I was chemsistry on one level, two books were used related, one with chemical knowledge and the other is how the chapters in the other book-related real life. It may seem a bit basic, but could give some ideas. Salters were for the course and the book was real life chemical called. # ISBN-10: 0435631195 # ISBN-13: 978-0435631192 monthly publications are also good sources of Current research conducted (for biology, which tended to use nature). Try an Internet search or Google scholar is also good.

Organic Production and Food Quality (Hardcover) $364.64 The internet is rife with biased and unsubstantiated claims from the organic industry, and the treatment of issues such as food safety and quality by the media ("if it bleeds, it leads") tends to have a negative impact on consumer perceptions about conventional food. Until recently, more and more consumers in many countries were opting to buy organic food over conventional food, resulting in a radical shift in food retailing. This was due to concerns over chemical residues, food poisoning resulting in recalls, food scares such as "mad-cow" disease, issues like gene-modified (GM foods), antibiotics, hormones, cloning and concerns over the way plants and animals are being grown commercially as food sources. As a result there has been an expansion of the organic industry and the supply of organic foods at farmers` markets, supermarkets and specialty stores.Effects of Organic Production on Food Quality is the first comprehensive book on how organic production methods influence the safety and quality of foods, based on an unbiased assessment of the latest scientific findings.  The title is a `must-have` for everyone working within the food industry.Comprehensive explanation of organic production methods and effects on the safety and quality of foodsAuthoritative, unbiased and up-to-date examination of relevant global scientific researchAnswers the questions of whether organic food is more nutritious and/or more healthy |

Food Beware: The French Organic Revolution (DVD) $34.95 Documentary filmmaker Jean-Paul Jaud sets out to discover if contemporary society can create a food supply that isn`t littered with contaminants by exploring the current trend of organic, localized food production in France. The current generation is the very first in history that will grow up less healthy than the one that preceded it. Cancer and infertility rates are skyrocketing. Could it have something to do with our tainted food supplies? By paying a visit to a remote French village where the lunch menu is comprised entirely of organic, locally grown foods, Jaud highlights the ways in which some communities are shunning food industry giants to go back to the basics. A wide variety of interviews with everyone from researchers to schoolchildren reveal the deep flaws that exist within the food industry and raise though-provoking questions about what can be done to correct them. |
