Download the talk www.chemstuff.co.uk Chemistry What the Hell is it! What is Chemistry • If it moves, it's biology. • If it doesn't work, it's physics. • If it stinks, it's chemistry. • If it’s all three it’s a student If it doesn’t work, its physics Chemistry Seriously Now!! Chemistry • Persian ( کیمیاKimia) Chemistry • Greek χημεία (Khemeia) – Alchemy History • Burning. History • Metallurgy – Purifcation – Alloys Alchemy • Common Perception – Liars – Concocting potions Alchemy • Scholars Alchemy • attempted to explore the nature of chemical substances and processes. History • Periodic Table Chemistry • noun (pl. chemistries) – 1 the branch of science concerned with the properties and interactions of the substances of which matter is composed. – 2 the chemical properties of a substance or body. – 3 attraction or interaction between two people.

What makes you a chemist Well… You Might Be a Chemist if: • You carry your lab safety goggles around with you at all times, just in case... You Might Be a Chemist if: • You start disagreeing with scientific points in films and correct them at every possible moment You Might be a Chemist if: • you no longer ask for Tylenol, you ask for acetaminophenol. You Might be a Chemist if: • you start referring to the smell of nail polish remover as an acetone smell. You Might be a Chemist if: • you don't drink water, you drink H2O. You Might be a Chemist if: • you become very agitated when people refer to air as Oxygen, and proceed to list all of the components of air You Might be a Chemist if: • you think a mole is a unit of amount, rather than a small furry animal in your lawn Thank You For Listening – Bibliography – www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemistry New Scientist Issues from 2004 – 8th Feb 2007 Analytical Chemistry – Higson Physical Chemistry – Atikins & dePaula Inorganic Chemistry – Shriver & Atkins Organic Chemistry – Claydon, Greaves, Warren and Wothers http://www.workjoke.com/projoke25.htm
