A chemical substance is a material with a specific chemical composition.

A common example of a chemical substance is pure water; it has the same properties and the same ratio of hydrogen to oxygen whether it is isolated from a river or made in a laboratory. Some typical chemical substances are diamond, gold, salt (sodium chloride) and sugar (sucrose). Generally, chemical substances exist as a solid, liquid, or gas, and may change between these phases of matter with changes in temperature or pressure. Chemical reactions convert one chemical substance into another.

Forms of energy, such as light and heat, are not considered to be matter, and thus they are not "substances" in this regard.

What causes the chemical imbalances that lead to depression?
Q. The medical fraternity often claims that a major cause of depression is chemical imbalance. However, there is seldom any discussion about what causes the chemical imbalance. I would like to learn what this may be. I have my own thoughts but would like to hear from others about probable causes.

A. You posted an answer to my question regarding my thesis and I'd just like to say I definitely agree that depression is being blamed "brain abnormalities", such as serotonin reputake. However, at this point, we don't even fully understand the full spectrum of how these chemicals work and what exactly they do. The scary part then is why are all of these medications being prescribed when we don't even understand what's wrong? And the even scarier part is they don't even know what anti-depressants really do to the brain!! The little that pharmaceutical companies do know is being hidden from the FDA and the general public. Check out some of Peter Breggin's books, he makes a lot of interesting arguments against simply treating psychological… [cont.]

What chemical lipid and carbohydrate does peanut butter have in it?
Q. I need to find what the chemical lipid looks like in the peanut butter but I'm confused. And I need to draw it and stuff. The ingrediants say: peanuts, sugar, fully hydrogenated vegetable oil (rapseed, conttonseed and soybean,) molasses, salt. But I need to find the carbohydrate in it and the lipid in it. And I think the lipid in it would be the vegetable oil, but I'm not sure. I have to draw it and stuff. But I have no idea what I'm doing.

Is it safe to pour household chemical waste down the sink with plenty of water?
Q. Is it safe to pour household chemical waste down the sink with plenty of water? Ive always wondered on whether its best to pour down household chemical waste down the sink with alot of water is bad cause someone told me its just as bad as pouring it down alone. Should you just refrain from pouring down anything "chemical" down the sink? Why though when you can just take the easy way and pour it down the sink?
