With the exception of a small number of inorganic additives like titanium dioxide most of the contents of a modern paint will be organic. Even the water based emulsions and low VOC paints are based primarily on organic chemistry, as they contain emulsifiiers, wetting agents, pigments and preservatives etc. Taking a gloss paint as an example of paints in general; there will be a base solvent, perhaps xylene or toluene. To this will be added a resin usually some kind of alkyd. then emulsifiers and anti flocculating agents. Finally a pigment will be added to produce the required colour and effect. The paint may be made opaque, pearlescent, metalic or transparent using organic compounds. Googling the bold items above will take you to specific examples of these chemicals.
What else can I help you with?
Which wavelength range in the electromagnetic spectrum has been the most fruitful in the search for organic molecules in space?
The radio wavelength range has been the most fruitful in the search for organic molecules in space. Radio telescopes have detected complex organic molecules in regions such as star-forming regions, comets, and interstellar clouds, providing valuable insights into the presence and chemistry of organic molecules in space.
What types of atoms are contained on organic molecules?
An organic molecule is one that contains the element Carbon (C). The definition of organic has been misconstrued in the past few years primarily due to the food industry labeling foods that meet certain rigorous criteria as organic.
What 2 places on early earth could organic molecules been synthesized?
Organic molecules could have been synthesized in two places on early Earth: Primordial soup in the oceans, where lightning or UV radiation could have driven the formation of complex molecules. Hydrothermal vents on the ocean floor, where heat and minerals could have provided the energy needed for organic synthesis.
What organic molecules have so far been discovered an extraterrestrial situations such as mirrors it's an even interstellar clouds?
Organic molecules detected in extraterrestrial environments include amino acids, hydrocarbons, and simple sugars. Notably, the amino acid glycine was found in samples from the Rosetta mission to Comet 67P, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been identified in interstellar clouds. Additionally, the presence of organic compounds has been confirmed in the atmospheres of some moons and planets, such as Titan, Saturn's moon. These findings suggest that the building blocks of life may be widespread in the universe.
Are plastics inorganic or organic?
Plastics are Carbon Based, therefore are Organic.
Which wavelength range in the electromagnetic spectrum has been the most fruitful in the search for organic molecules in space?
The radio wavelength range has been the most fruitful in the search for organic molecules in space. Radio telescopes have detected complex organic molecules in regions such as star-forming regions, comets, and interstellar clouds, providing valuable insights into the presence and chemistry of organic molecules in space.
Why no organic molecules have been found on mars?
Because no one has seen them JAG q
What does this mean organic molecules are continuously being recycled?
they get thrown in the recycled bin and has been recycled?
What heavy metal is used to make paints?
Lead is a heavy metal that has historically been used to make paints, particularly in the form of lead white or lead chromate pigments. However, due to health and environmental concerns, the use of lead in paints has been banned or heavily regulated in many countries. Alternatives such as titanium dioxide and organic pigments are now commonly used instead.
Is there life on other planets except on earth?
We do not know. So far, organic molecules have been located on planets and in distant stars, but this is not proof that organic life exists there.
What types of atoms are contained on organic molecules?
An organic molecule is one that contains the element Carbon (C). The definition of organic has been misconstrued in the past few years primarily due to the food industry labeling foods that meet certain rigorous criteria as organic.
Why do you study organic and inorganic chemstry separately?
This is something of a historical perspective that simply hasn't been changed over the last hundred years or so. Inorganic chemistry covers the basics of atomic interactions, reactions, the formation of molecules and how those molecules interact with each other. Organic chemistry is typically taught separately from this, and usually after a student has mastered inorganic chemistry, because the properties of organic molecules differ greatly from those of inorganic molecules. The same principles still apply, but there are many more factors to consider and ways in which organic molecules can act.
Has 'one day all paints will be made this way' been used?
I haven't seen it used, however, "Someday, all paints will be made this way" has been used by Horizon Paints.
Where could Earth's early organic molecules have been synthesized?
In the atmosphere, in the upper layers of waters, basically everywhere where there's enough of the component elements, energy and convection available.Note that recent observations in astronomy have shown massive amounts of organic molecules to be present about newly formed star systems, so it's very well possible that some organic molecules were transported to Earth by comets, etc.
Are oil paints better than normal paints?
This may have been the case once upon a time. However today the quality of acrylic paints is far better then it has ever been. Acrylic paints adhere better to the job and are far more flexible for a longer period of time. Even the gloss paints are becoming very good.
2 places on earth where organic molecules could have been synthesized?
it's between A. amino acids or B. monosaccharides C.fatty acids or D.phospholipids
Which moon has been found to have evidence of complex organic chemistry occurring on its surface and in its atmosphere?
Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, has been found to have evidence of complex organic chemistry occurring on its surface and in its atmosphere. Data from the Cassini mission has revealed the presence of hydrocarbons and other organic molecules on Titan, suggesting the potential for prebiotic chemistry to occur on this moon.
