Chapter 1, Problem 2A

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: Use of chemistry in physician’s job should be discussed.

Concept Introduction: Chemistry is the study of structure, composition, and properties of matter. It is the part of the physical science which helps to describe and interpret the world. It is the science of atoms/molecules and their transformations.

Explanation of Solution

Chemistry is included in every activity we do or around us. It plays a significant role in everyone’s lives. It occasionally called as "central science" because it links other branches of science, such as geology, physics, biology, and environmental science.

The physician can diagnose diseases by various tests and tells about its chemical effects on the body. They prescribe medicines for the same so, they use chemistry in their jobs.
