The aim of this video is to introduce children to various applications of chemistry. The video is focused on our day-to-day activities from chemical point of view - Which materials do we use every day? How water is cleaned? What our clothes made of?... The real-life examples make complex scientific and technical concepts reachable to young students and should stimulate interest to chemistry and related subjects.
