Chemical composition of everyday products

"This book analyzes over 100 groups of products, identifying the specific chemical composition of a product, the historical use of the product, how it functions, and any associated environmental and/or human health issues. Ten laboratory exercises provide students with the opportunity to observe these chemicals "in action." Readers will learn which chemical elements are in everyday products and how they may affect health and environment, assisting them in making educated choices as consumers."--Jacket
