Synopsis

Human life is full of material things, and life without material things is unimaginable. Chemical reactions are happening all the time in the materials around us: water turns into ice when cooled and turns into water vapor when heated; kitchen knives will rust; burning gas in a gas stove will form red flames and generate heat; plants are growing... This book explains how the materials and phenomena around us form and change. The chemistry of "water", the chemistry of "life", the chemistry of "explosion", the chemistry of "metals", the chemistry of "atoms and radioactivity" and the chemistry of "energy" provide interesting and easy-to-understand explanations of 67 chemical phenomena and changes in 10 chapters, making complex chemical reactions and structures vivid. I believe that after reading this book, the changes in the environment and natural phenomena will become more interesting and lovely in the eyes of readers.

Reader comments

Our lives are full of material things, and life without them is unimaginable. There is air around us; we use water every day; we are covered by clothing; there is a wooden table in front of us, a computer on the table is assembled from many parts, and pencils made of wood and graphite are within reach; there is a wide variety of food on the ceramic plate when we eat; medicines we take when we are sick: these are all substances. Not only that, humans themselves are part of matter. Matter changes. Kitchen knives will rust, and the gas burning in the gas stove will form red flames and generate heat. Flowers will bloom and we will grow. For example, matter changes as a result of chemical reactions.

Looking for Books for Junior High School Study! ! (Over)

My grades started plummeting when I entered junior high school. I obviously learned and knew how to do most of the questions correctly, but I got them wrong when I took the test. Now I am in high school! In the end, I did okay in the exam. Thank you everyone for reading the book (although I didn't read it either). I'll just treat this post as a souvenir.
