Context
Our life is full of chemical reactions. Useful materials such as cloth, paper, ink, ceramics, metals and polymers are all products of chemical reactions. Chemical reactions occur in cooking and digestion of food, and they must occur in all cells of the body to sustain life. Medicines help cure illness by affecting the chemical reactions in your body. Even everyday occurrences – the rusting of an old car, the burning fire of a barbeque and the fizzing of a bath bomb – are the result of chemical compounds
