Dr. Warner will be able to extend his time online for another ten minutes, for which we thank him. All your questions, by the way are excellent, and I'm sorry that we can't get to all of them. A good foundation in math is important in all areas of science, including chemistry. Another change would be to include more practical application examples in textbooks, everyday examples of chemistry to supplement the textbook material. Computers will become as common in the lab as bunsen burners.
Chemists study many different fields.
For example, physics lays the foundation for chemistry. Mathematical concepts are important in chemistry. In addition, when we perform research, we have to develop a philosophy about what we propose to study. Once we introduce philosophy, all areas of liberal arts become important. Therefore, a chemist must be a well-rounded student.
