Description

What do elements have to do with your everyday life? They make your world -- and beyond -- move and groove, fizz, bubble, and flash Discover what you have in common with party balloons, soccer balls, computer chips, pizza dough, table salt, and TV screens. “Break” a water molecule, produce fluorescent light (without turning a switch), enjoy a half-life snack, compare anti-perspirants, and separate the iron from your breakfast cereal! Find out why broccoli smells, why soda makes a penny shine, the secret of static cling, and what makes a smoke detector work. Get the inside scoop on “noble” gases, the “rare earths,” and why atoms “steal.” In this hands-on book, learning is a happening thing! Illustrations.
