Question

1. drug testing of athletes and other individuals is big business. complex instruments can be used to test blood and urine samples for very small amounts of drugs that may have been taken illegally. which combined branches of chemistry would most likely be involved in this type of study?

bioanalytical chemistry
bioinorganic chemistry
medical chemistry
physical organic chemistry

1. give two examples of chemistry in your everyday life

Explanation:

Drug testing of blood and urine samples for drugs involves analyzing the chemical - components. Bioanalytical chemistry focuses on the analysis of substances in biological matrices. So, it is most relevant for this type of study.

Answer:

1. Bioanalytical chemistry
2. One example is cooking. Chemical reactions occur when we cook food, like the Maillard reaction which gives browned food its flavor. Another example is the use of soap for cleaning. Soap molecules have a hydrophilic (water - loving) and a hydrophobic (water - hating) end. The hydrophobic end attaches to dirt and oil, while the hydrophilic end attaches to water, allowing the dirt and oil to be washed away.
