for the most popular form of phthalate is C8H4O4. There is also a substance called “Phthalic acid”, from which phthalates originate, which is used to synthesize into phthalate. Some of phthalates physical properties include: a melting point of 207°, and a boiling point of 378°. It’s a colourless, white crystalline (translucent) solid, at room temperature, and is odourless. for its chemical properties, it’s a combustible substance (when it comes to its acid variant), it reacts violently with…

what way the chemical can be hazardous to health. The procedures for storing and handling the chemicals are shown to staff and then stored on a LIMS. This is important because you have to ensure sure awareness of health and safety issues with substances being used in the organisation. A record of any events that involved chemicals causing harm to staff should be kept. Chemicals that are hazardous to health are firstly identified. Scientific data can be stored on the computer or in written form…

One thing that can be useful is knowing basic chemicals and elements to be safe and know what is inside things you have in everyday life. Knowing chemicals is good to know not to mix certain things that can possibly be dangerous or hazardous to your-self or others. Knowing not to mix ammonia and bleach is good because when mixed causes an toxic gas that can harm you, others,…

Finding the right treatment facility and going through the admissions process can seem to be time consuming, overwhelming, and confusing. A person who needs treatment must find the program that will meet their needs and that will accept…

we eat has to do with chemistry. Food has organic compounds that change when they are cooked. It is used in our everyday life when because you need chemistry to do everything. Stoichiometry is the relationship between the relative quantities of substances taking part in a reaction or forming a compound. The coefficients in a balanced chemical equation represent moles of reactants and moles of products. The mole ratio of reactants and products in a balanced equation must remain constant.…

Others may not prefer to be labeled like this, but rather see their substance abuse issues as past-tense. Another belief that goes hand in hand with the once an addict always an addict theory is that relapse is a part of recovery. Relapse is defined as a deterioration after a temporary improvement. That would imply that it is common for someone who has been in recovery to resort back to the old destructive behaviors of abusing substances again. This approach to recovery it invites the addict…

A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances, which are the reactants, are converted to one or more different substances, which are the products. The substances in a chemical reaction are either chemical elements or compounds. There are different observations that indicate a chemical reaction has taken place. Formation of precipitate, which is a solid formed in a chemical reaction. Precipitate can take place when solutions containing ionic compounds are mixed and an insoluble…
