Organized a meeting with students of the Republican School of Physics and Mathematics in Almaty.

Associate Professor of the Department of General and Inorganic Chemistry Beisembayeva L. K. together with 1st year undergraduates Nurgalieva A. S., and Tulganova A. A. organized a meeting with students of the Republican School of Physics and Mathematics in Almaty. The purpose of the event was to show the importance of chemistry in the framework of sustainable development, to increase their scientific interest and to develop environmental responsibility. The role of chemistry in solving global problems such as SDG 4 Quality Education, Clean Water and sanitation, responsible consumption and production, and combating climate change through experiments. The following experiments were carried out: 1. Fake blood. This reaction shows how chemistry can help create medical materials. For example, artificial blood. "Health and well-being", because modern medicine is impossible without chemistry.  2. Electrolysis of copper sulfate and potassium iodide. Electrolysis is the key to a clean energy future. Electrolysis produces hydrogen, purifies water, and extracts metals. This process is ongoing right now. 3. pH levels of various solutions (nitric acid, coffee, soap solution, sodium hydroxide). The pH level of water is very important for water quality control. We will see how different substances change the acidity or alkalinity of the environment, and understand the role of chemistry in controlling the safety of water and food. 4. Toothpaste for elephants. This reaction demonstrates the action of a catalyst. Catalysts are widely used in manufacturing, especially in "green technologies".5. Pharaoh's snake. This reaction reminds us of the importance of proper waste management and the impact of carbon emissions on the climate. Chemistry allows you to control the processes of gorenje and decomposition and to do it in an environmentally friendly way.
