Essential Chemistry on Acids and Bases
By Kristi Lew
Publisher: Chelsea House Publications
Number of Pages: 124
Publication Date: 2008-12-30
Book Description:
Acids and bases are essential components of the natural world that play key roles in medicine and industry. They are used in the manufacturing of everyday items such as carbonated soft drinks, salad dressing, kitchen and bathroom cleaners, and fertilizers. But these compounds can also have a dramatic impact, such as in the sulfuric acid clouds of Venus and in grave wax, a basic substance in soil that mummifies animal and human bodies. The informative "Acids and Bases" takes a closer look at these fascinating, yet contrasting, substances, giving concrete, real world examples with numerous colorful illustrations.

Essential Chemistry of Carbon Chemistry
Carbon Chemistry
By Krista West
Publisher: Chelsea House Publications
Number of Pages: 17
Publication Date: 2008-12-30
Book Description:
The versatility of carbon is what makes this element so much a part of human life. All life on Earth is carbon-based, and humans cannot live without carbon. Most of the energy humans use to power homes and cars comes from carbon combustion. As a result of these multiple, widespread uses of carbon, humans have accidentally disrupted the Earth's balance of carbon - with largely unknown future consequences. Now, science looks to the chemistry of carbon to set the balance straight. This title describes how carbon is an essential element for life on Earth, how it is found in everyday life, and what is being done to offset the increased carbon emissions modern life has caused.

Essential Chemistry on Earth Chemistry
By Allan B. Cobb
Publisher: Chelsea House Publications
Number of Pages: o130
Publication Date: 2008-12-30
Book Description:
Earth is made up of four basic parts: the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the lithosphere, and the biosphere. The atmosphere is made up of the gases that surround the planet. The hydrosphere consists of the water in the oceans, lakes, rivers, and air. The lithosphere is the rocky surface of Earth both on land and under the oceans. The biosphere encompasses all living things on Earth. The actions and interactions between these components are what make the Earth a constantly changing entity. Weather changes, rain falls, soil washes away, and plants take in carbon dioxide and release oxygen, all through the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. Clear and concise, "Earth Chemistry" explains these chemical or physical changes on Earth, exploring how the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere relate to and interact with one another.
