Activity 3

1. Post a picture of three 3-dimensional Ball and Stick molecular models(choose your three favorite molecules) that you have created with common items around your home. Also post a molecular structure image(image from the web, of either a Kekule Structure or a Ball and Stick Model) and the IUPAC name of the molecule.
Water, Oxidane

Propane: Propane C3H8

Ammonia, Azane

2. Post an image from the web, the chemical systematic (IUPAC) name, common name, and the molecule formula for 20 chemicals that you use or eat. Explore the ingredients of things like cosmetics and foods.

I got a lot of my information for this project from  http://www.chemindustry.com/apps/chemicals. It was very helpful and very interesting.

3. Look over your molecules and the bonding characteristics, how many bonds does each of the following elements typically have?  Carbon? Hydrogen? Oxygen?

This seems to differ between molecules but on average Carbon has between 2-4 bonds, Hydrogen has about 1 bond and Oxygen typically has 2 bonds.

4. What does IUPAC stand for? International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry

5. As you explore ingredients, notice how everything around us is made up of chemicals consisting of atoms bound together into molecules.  But what about companies that claim their products are chemical free! How can this be?  Here is an example:
http://www.naturalhealthcareproducts.com/Cleaning-Products.php
Do a little web searching and propose what chemicals are actually in this product. Keep in mind, that everything at the molecular level is a chemical, whether it be made in nature or in a lab.

This product is obviously not chemical free. It would be nearly impossible for any product to be chemical free as our whole world is full of chemicals and everything can be broken down to smaller parts. For example as I was looking up some of the things we eat and use everyday they all had many different chemicals apart of them. I think that the company listed above trying to sell Green Aussie cleaner is trying to say that there are no harmful chemicals in their products, it is not toxic and it will not start on fire. I think these are the kinds of things people think of when they think of chemicals. They think that chemicals are bad and anything with them must be bad. As I stated earlier this is completely false and everything we use has chemicals in it.
