IMPORTANCE OF CHEMISTRY IN OUR DAILY LIFE - PART 3
12. Studying Chemistry Lets You
Acknowledge the Impact of Environmental Pollution
There
is no doubt that environmental pollution is a global problem. But how does it
really affect life on the Earth? To be able to understand the impact of
environmental pollution on living beings and the atmosphere, it is essential to
have knowledge of basic chemistry. And believe it or not, you do not need to
study environmental
chemistry to understand how pollution works. Studying chemistry is
enough to get a general idea of how to improve the environment and protect our planet from
contamination.
13. It can prepare you for further studies
A good
grounding in chemistry can give you a competitive edge when it comes to further
studies in a STEM field such as biology, geology, physics, or engineering. It
will also help you better understand complex concepts in other areas such as
nutrition, environmental sciences, and biochemistry.
14. Chemistry is used in law
Chemistry
is involved in the legal field in a few ways. Chemists can work in intellectual
property, examining copyright issues and filing for approval from regulating
agencies. Before giving this approval, agencies need to know the chemical
makeup of products and how they might affect people and the environment.
A chemist is the best person to explain this information. Chemists can also be
found in forensics. They analyze physical evidence at crime scenes and help law
enforcement understand how crimes occurred.
15. Chemistry is everywhere
Chemistry
is the study of the building blocks of our world. Everything you touch, wear,
eat or drink is the result of a chemical process. By studying chemistry, you
learn how the world works and how items, such as medicines, get manufactured.
16. Studying Chemistry Boosts Creative Thinking and Problem-Solving Skills
As chemistry is all about understanding different concepts and solving problems rather than learning random sentences by heart, it boosts various skills, including creative thinking. Besides, identifying and understanding concepts, doing research, and brainstorming are parts of studying chemistry, meaning that it also enhances your problem-solving skills.
