What do you
consider will
be the role of
chemistry in
the future in
terms of…
C2
Global water supply
Lithium: the
toothpaste is made
with lithium so it
waste water
Fluorine: is made to
do batteries and that
is toxic for water
animals
Aluminum: it is used
to cook and cooking
need water
Lithium: is a toxic element
so if you eat it you die
Fluorine is used for
batteries and that can help
to not contaminate the
world and use that
batteries for cooking
Lithium: it is a toxic
element so that can
damage the health
Fluorine is used to do a
liquid to make
batteries but that is
toxic.
Aluminum is used for
Aluminum is a metal
making tools for eating like but it can be bad for
a fork or a knife.
