FUNDAMENTALS OF CHEMISTRY TO RECITE

1.  All chemistry concepts can be broken down into three areas of focus: Building Blocks, Force/Energy, and Mathematics.

2. BUILDING BLOCKS
2a.  	Using building blocks is nature’s way of being efficient and flexible.
2b. 	Protons, electrons, and neutrons build atoms.
2c. 	Atoms build molecules.
2d. 	Molecules build macromolecules.
2e. 	Macromolecules build living things, plastics, and crystals.
2f. 	Carbon rules the world of living things and organic chemistry. Supporters are hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, and phosphorus.  They combine by sharing electrons.

3. Oxygen rules the world of inorganic chemistry with all elements participating. The battle over electrons is between metals and non-metals with the non-metals winning.  After the battle non-metals and metals have opposite charges and since opposite charges attract, they bond with each other.

4. FORCE & ENERGY
4a. 	The main force in chemical reactions is electrical attraction and repulsion between the protons and electrons in atoms. The attraction brings atoms together. The repulsion keeps atoms apart. This balancing act is what creates molecules from atoms.

4b. 	Without energy, compounds would form but never change. However, with energy we get rearrangement and change and therefore life. In photosynthesis light from the sun pulls apart carbon dioxide and water molecules and rearranges them as a sugar and oxygen. Sugar and oxygen provide the energy to form new molecules. So life goes on.

5. MATHEMATICS
The laws of nature and chemistry are written in math not words. Math governs such things as how elements are built, how much force there is between protons and electrons, and what colors of light an electron will emit. Even descriptions like round, red, and resting lose meaning in the world of atoms and are replaced with more useful mathematical descriptions.
Chemistry also involves measurements, so math is used there as well.

6. CHEMISTRY WORDS OF WISDOM
6a.	Nothing is as complex as it looks or as simple as it looks.
6b.	The difference between trash and treasure is just the arrangement of the atoms.
