how can I study chemistry and understand i t

Adewale Ogundimu

Azeez, as with learning and mastering anything, you need to give the subject enough time and attention. Start from the basics and find foundational topics that give you a tough time. Avoid reading about or studying more advanced topics when your foundation is faulty. This is the same with all other science subjects: if you do not clearly understand the basics, it will get incrementally harder to understand subsequent concepts. I hope this helps.

why is chemistry in important in our life?

Adewale Ogundimu

As was mentioned in the lesson, most everything you do and encounter during your day involves chemistry. Here are some reasons why chemistry is important in our life:

  1. For all living things to function and survived their bodies perform various chemical processes. Some of those processes includes; respiration, digestion, producing new cell, filtering and releasing of waste substances from their bodies, reproduction, etc.
  2. Chemistry is the foundation of medicine. We use chemical reactions to create medication for a broad spectrum of illness and/ or they utilize medicinal plants and animals.
  3. Chemistry is needed for the continual advancement of technology. By using the principles of chemistry we are able to extract different types of metals and also create different types of plastics which are used to build electronic devices (phones, tablets, etc.), cars, lab equipment, hospital equipment.
    In fact, making coffee, cooking eggs, and toasting bread involve chemistry. The products you use—like soap and shampoo, the fabrics you wear, the electronics that keep you connected to your world, the gasoline that propels your car—all of these and more involve chemical substances and processes.
