That is as homework to do maximum on 4th February
As you knew, Chemistry is everywhere

Now, l want you to write a comment here in the blog:
Why do you think that the teacher Encarna says that Chemistry is not something bad in our lives, but it is also something good?

26 comments:

  1. I never heard Encarna saying that, but i'm pretty sure it's because the chemistry is the only one who has the solution to the problems that we have.
    No other than the chemist can solve the problems now, so we must think that the chemistry is good and hope they will solve our problems, but only history can judge that, only time will tell.

  2. Because all is chemistry! jajaja from food to the process of falling in love, all is compounded by milions of substances, that also are compounded by milios of molecules, that we can know if we learn chemistry.

  3. because without chemistry lots of things that we use every day wouldn't exist like plastics, but, at the other hand, lots of foodthat we eat have products from chemistry, and it are less healthy than ecologic food

  4. WE ARE CHEMISTRY, it's everywhere. Without chemistry we couldn't be here and we couldn't be who we are. Any tiny thing wouldn't exist.

  5. Because chemistry is not only a subject in school, chemistry is part of our lives and of course is something very important in our daily life.

  6. I think that she says things like that, because without chemistry we wouldn't be what we are. Chemistry is everywhere. Of course people sometimes use it to do wrong things, but is involved by most of our live.

  7. I agree with Encarna. All in our lives is chemistry but not only now, all is chemistry since the beggining of the univers.

    But I think thats it's necessary to say that chemistry can be used in a extremly bad way and I believe that nowadays there are situacions where chemistry is used in this bad way.

  8. I belive that chemistry it's all the world, because for exemple, when you are cooking, you are doing chemical processes (boiling) or when you drying clothes (evaporation).
    In definitive chemistry is in our daily life, but we not realize.

  9. As Encarna says, chemistry is everywhere. All that's around the world is done with chemistrys' help. Without it a lot of important things couldn't exist, so important as medicines and some kinds of food.

  10. Because all in this world are chemistry, chemistry is all the things of this world from the salt of we use in the chicken to the nuclear reaction. We are chemistry.

  11. I think chemistry is everywhere, as Encarna says because it's very important in our lives.
    Without it we couldn't be who we are because it's essencial for a lot of things we do every day.

  12. Chemistry is everywhere, it's in every moment of our lives, our bodies are made of chemical reactions,chemistry is involved in our feelings, even we don't realized.

    We can found chemistry in a lot of products that we use like soaps or detergents.

  13. I agree with Encarna and what he said about that chemistry is all around us, is part of everything and we couldn't live without it. The chemistry has led to many advances in medicine, and we can make all kinds of materials, food.. to lead a good life for us.

  14. Chemistry is part of our life and is present in all aspects of our lives. The quality of life that we can reach we owe to the study of chemistry. The variety and quality of personal care products, food, the circuits of the computer, the television screen, the colors of the houses, the cold from the refrigerator and the beauty of a face exist and get better thanks of the study of chemistry. So, I think she says it because it is very important in our lives and also good.

  15. I’m agree with Encarna. We can’t live without chemistry! For example when we are ill we need medicines and it is chemistry, and our lives sometimes depend of this. Furthermore, our body has a lot of reactions that are chemistry.

    Despite the fact that chemistry is important, sometimes we abuse it and we have to respect more the natural things like ecological food.

  16. Because all is chemistry! I remember our first chemistry lesson with Encarna, last year. The fisrt sentence she said was "everything is chemistry". And then I thought "Is she crazy?" because I didn't understand it. I was so surprised! But now I thing she's right, now cheimistry is not an unknwon thing for me, so I can say it. That's true!

  17. Is obiusly that chemistry is very important in our lifes, since the industrial revolution until now, it has been something in the day to day.

  18. I think that Encarna said this because chemistry is very useful and succesful in ours lives and that’s great. But also it could be bad, because if we abuse or we use it without control, without thinking of the consequences, it might cause damages to the environment.
    Our future it’s in our hands so it is in the way as we use the chemistry.

  19. Because everything we do or use is necessary to use chemistry. The chemistry is very important in our lifes and I think that it's very interesting study chemistry because you learn a lot of things.

  20. Chemistry is one of the great science of our evolution. That has given us great advantages and comfort.
    Without control can affect the environment, but using it well we can make the world better.

  21. I am agree with Encarna. Some people think that chemistry is bad because it is used to make explosives and toxic substances, and it is true; but also we have to know that chemistry is around us and we use it too to a lot of important things like the medicines and vaccines.

  22. Hello Esther!

    In my opinion chemistry it's all that surrounds us, it's a necessity in life. Can be good or could be bad but without it there would be nothing.

  23. I don't have chemistry like a subject, because I'm doing Batxillerat Tecnologic, but I think that even chemistry is good or not, the best are Physics, like Jorge would said.
    I think that because Physics descrives all what happens around us, everithing of this Univers.
    However Chemistry is very important too, but it's not difficult to see, because it's obvious, that Physics makes you better person.
    So definitelly, Physics are better :D.

  24. Encarna says so, because if in the Earth is any material, pollution problem the only one that can solve it is chemistry. it's true that can be used in bad ways, but it also has the solutions of every problem it can cause, because everything is chemistry.

  25. The chemistry is fundamental for us, because the chemistry is everywhere. All the things that exist are based on the chemistry, since the things are done by one o more material and the chemistry studies his properties.

  26. Encarna always says that, and I agree that's really true, I recognize it although I'm not the biggest chemistry subject's fan . Chemistry is everywhere and it's very important, so if it didn't exist many things wouldn't happen.
