NARROW YOur intrests.....
Some of the things I posted last time that still interest me include chemistry involved in fireworks, jewlery to heal you, and batteries. The thing that interests me most is the batteries to power everything. SOme of you may think that topic is bland, but take a minitue to think. What would you do without batteries and electricity?..........................................done thinking yet? good......there are so many things you could not have that you would feel sooo deprived. Lets see cell phones, iPods, Digital cameras, cars.......hmmn life would suck. If would even effect poeple with suppliments for like heart pacemakers and stuff. We are extremely lucky to have batteries....they literally POWER OUR LIFE. this is why i choose to research batteries/ electricty through chemistry! <3
"I VISITED THESE BLOGS!"

I found a lot of things interesting by looking at my fellow classmates blogs. I definatley think that breeding humans to have the characteristics we want is really interesting. It is kind of scary but just thiink how we could produce humans that didnot get sick, that are extremely smart ( to even better technology), or anything you want! Next, I really like how chemistry is even involved in CSI. Its so cool that to figure out 'a mystery' you need chemistry. Another cool thing is that they can make bombs (ok bombs not cool but listen) you can take compounds and elements from earth and then throw them back into earth and they blow up and devestate so many things? I find that interesting. Definatley another thing is the whole human made chemical that is given off by plastic. We really need to find another way so that we stop harming the environment even from simple water bottles. Finally, I think that is really cool that chemistry can be used for little things like mood rings and pop rocks. Think about a job where you mixed things together to make new fun 'dumb' things (ok maybe a little more complicated...but still)

how is chemistry interesting?
Well lets see....What would we do with out chemistry.....I really dont know
Chemistry is interesting to me in the following ways:
1. Medicine- Well medicine and vitamins are the combination of different elements and chemicals. ex. calcium tablets
2. Food- Ex. soda is caffeine. Someone had to mix elements together to make it. Read the nurition facts on the back of a box. zinc-; calcium-; etc.
3. Electricty and especially batteries. What would we do without batteries. Cars? Cells? iPods? Digital Cameras? we would be extremely bored.
4. Believe it or not fireworks invole chemistry. The color of the fireworks and the sound is all reactions like (combustions) in the sky. that is sooooo coool!
5. Jewlry chemistry- what you can wear a braclet and your wrist will stop hurting? what? ha
I thought the coolest thing I found was on jewlry chemistry. First off if you are wearing gold, silver, copper, or bronze, you are wearing elements. But even cooler, there is jewlry that has been said to make you feel better. There are copper braclets for people with arthritus. It has been proven that when people wear these braclets, they feel relief from their pain. This is so cool because you wear a peice of jewlry and it makes you feel better. (what more could my grandmother possibly want?) Magnetic jewlry was even used back in the 200BC times with Egyptian and Chinese healers. There are anklets, bracklets, necklaces all suppose to help you. Wearing something magnetic around a broken wrist or ankle has been proved to help the healing process. It speeds up the production of new cells. Magnetic jewlry has been said to help arthritus, tennis elbow, tendonitus, and so much more! Yay chemistry!
