Environmental chemistry
Environmental chemistry involves first understanding how the uncontaminated environment works, which chemicals in what concentrations are present naturally, and with what effects.Important general concepts from chemistry include understanding chemical reactions and equations, solutions, units, sampling, and analytical techniques.Non-MS methods using GCs and LCs having universal or specific detectors are still staples in the arsenal of available analytical tools.These are pollutants which emit radioactive materials, such as alpha and beta particles, posing danger to human health and the environment.Joan Berkowitz Paul Crutzen (Nobel Prize in Chemistry, 1995) Philip Gschwend Alice Hamilton John M.
