Introduction to Chemistry: Role of Chemistry in society
1.0 Introduction to Chemistry
1.10 Role of Chemistry in society
In addition to the reasons given earlier on why we should learn Chemistry, study the following pictures which show other applications of Chemistry in real life.
Medicines are manufactured by applying knowledge of Chemistry. Chemists and pharmacists (who design medicines) have deep understanding of Chemistry.
The goods (merchandise) stocked in supermarkets are produced through application of Chemistry in various industries.
