Acrylic Blox : Powdered charcoal
Mounted Prints from Science Photo Library
Powdered charcoal
Powdered charcoal. Charcoal is an amorphous form of carbon produced from burning wood in little or no oxygen. Charcoal can also be obtained from other substances, for example bones. Because it is porous, powdered charcoal is used in chemistry for the adsorption of gases and solids. Adsorption is the attachment of atoms or molecules of one substance to the surface of a solid or liquid of another substance. Charcoal is used in purification, for example of water; for drying of gases and as a filter in gas masks

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the intricate beauty of powdered charcoal. Charcoal, an amorphous form of carbon derived from burning wood or even bones, is a versatile substance with numerous applications. In chemistry, its porous nature makes it ideal for adsorbing gases and solids through a process called adsorption - where atoms or molecules attach themselves to the surface of another substance. The image captures a glass dish filled with this fine black powder, exuding an air of scientific intrigue. The texture appears velvety and smooth, inviting us to explore its purifying properties further. Indeed, charcoal plays a crucial role in purification processes such as water treatment and gas drying. Its ability to filter impurities makes it invaluable in these contexts. As we gaze at this mesmerizing photograph, we are reminded that science often uncovers hidden wonders within seemingly mundane materials. This simple yet profound image encourages us to appreciate the power of chemistry and its impact on our daily lives.
