Elements
Elements consist of only one kind of atom and cannot be decomposed into simpler substances. Our planet is made up of some 90 elements . (Tiny amounts - sometimes only a few atoms - of additional elements have been made in nuclear physics laboratories, but they play no role in our story). Of these 90, only 25 or so are used to build living things The table shows the 11 most prevalent elements in the lithosphere (the earth's crust) and in the human body. Elemental composition of the lithosphere and the human body. Each number represents the percent of the total number of atoms present. For example, 47 of every 100 atoms found in a representative sample of the lithosphere are oxygen while there are only 19 atoms of carbon in every 10,000 atoms of lithosphere. Composition of the Lithosphere Composition of the Human Body Oxygen Hydrogen Silicon Oxygen Aluminum Carbon Iron Nitrogen Calcium Calcium Sodium Phosphorus Potassium Chlorine Magnesium Potassium Titanium Sulfur Hydrogen Sodium Carbon Magnesium All others All others Living matter
  • uses only a fraction of the elements available to it
  • but, as the table shows, the relative proportions of those it does acquire from its surroundings are quite different from the proportions in the environment.

BASIC CHEMISTRY: A TEST OF CREATION - IMPACT No. 324 June 2000 by Edward A. Bourdreaux , Ph.D.* Institute for Creation Research. All Rights Reserved
Most of the chemical arguments in support of creation over evolution have stressed the biochemical perspective as it relates to the origin of life. While it is not suggested that these biochemical arguments should be minimized in any way, basic inorganic chemical roles of specific elements have been somewhat overlooked as worthy providing equally strong testaments of creation. Other elements, such as silicon (Si), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), phosphorus (P), etc., display some very limited capacities for catenation, but do not even come close to rivaling the catenation ability of C. Without this unique feature, the formation of such essential biomolecules as proteins, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), RNA (ribonucleic acid), cellulose, etc., would be impossible. Ironically, in spite of its crucial importance, carbon comprises only 9 to 10 percent by weight of the composition of all living things and only 0.017 percent of the earth's composition. Nonetheless, there is no other element that can replace even one or two C atoms in biomolecules, without destroying the biological integrity of these systems.

Chemistry/diatomic
Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition In chemistry Chemistry is the scientific study of the structure, properties, composition, and reactions of chemical elements and compounds.
Overview
The atomic theory is basic to chemistry. The theory states that all matter is composed of a set of very small units called atoms. One of the very first laws to be discovered leading to the establishment of chemistry as a science is the Law of Conservation of Mass. This law states there is no detectable change in the quantity of matter during an ordinary chemical reaction. (Modern physics now shows that it is actually energy that is conserved, and that energy and mass are related)

Crystal Chemistry
Chemical Composition of the Earth and Crust of the Earth
We can better understand the wide variety of different mineral species and the variations exhibited by individual mineral species by recognizing the gross chemical features of the Earth and especially of the crust. The table below illustrates the major elements present in the whole Earth and crust.
Element Wt.% in Whole Earth Wt. % in Crust Oxygen Iron Silicon Magnesium Nickel Calcium Aluminum Sodium + Potassium All Others Another interesting way to look especially at the chemical composition of the crust is shown in Figure 10-1.
While Oxygen comprises almost half of the crust by weight, it occupies almost 94% by volume! This is directly reflected in minerals as well. Oxygen is the most dominant anion in crustal minerals, and as you would predict from the numbers, the silicate minerals make up the bulk of the crustal rocks. Recall from your exploration of radius ratios and the close packing of spheres, Oxygen anions in a close packed array make up the bulk of a mineral's structure. Small cations such as Si, Al, Mg, Fe, Ca, and others occupy a volumetrically small portion of the mineral structure, being confined largely to the voids between the Oxygen anions. Put in other words, the Earth's crust, on an atomic scale consists essentially of a close packing of oxygen anions with interstitial metal cations, chiefly Silicon

The History of Indian Chemistry
Human endeavour to analyse the composition of the universe and various objects is as old as civilisation. This led to the study of compositional changes effected by forces external and internal to it, and new compounds were formed by mixing two different substances. The application of this knowledge vary from pottery to medical sciences. Evidences could be found in literary works of the period and in various scientific treatises on alchemy, metallurgy, fireworks, paper works etc. This paper attempts to chart out in chronological order such evidences beginning from the Indus valley/Harappan civilization. Various works in Sanskrit dealing with other areas of learning also point to the fact that knowledge about chemistry prevailed in ancient India. Among the 64 arts and sciences enumerated in Kamasutra of Vatsyayana  there is mention of suvarna ratna pariksa (the examination of gold and gems),
