	FEMA: Household Chemical Emergency
		Although the risk of a chemical accident is slight, knowing how to handle these products and how to react during an emergency can reduce the risk of injury.
		Once you have located a product, check the label and take the necessary steps to ensure that you are using, storing, and disposing of the material according to the manufacturer’s directions.
		It is critical to store household chemicals in places where children cannot access them.

	Chemical Weapons Information - Federation of American Scientists
		Chemical weapons use the toxic properties of chemical substances rather than their explosive properties to produce physical or physiological effects on an enemy.
		Although instances of what might be styled as chemical weapons date to antiquity, much of the lore of chemical weapons as viewed today has its origins in World War I. During that conflict "gas" (actually an aerosol or vapor) was used effectively on numerous occasions by both sides to alter the outcome of battles.
		Chemical weapons were never deliberately employed by the Allies or the Axis during World War II, despite the accumulation of enormous stockpiles by both sides.

	Chemistry - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For example, all atoms with 6 protons in their nuclei are atoms of the chemical element carbon, and all atoms with 92 protons in their nuclei are atoms of the element uranium.
		Chemical reactions are transformations in the fine structure of molecules.
		Joseph Proust's law of definite composition says that pure chemicals are composed of elements in a definite formulation; we now know that the structural arrangement of these elements is also important.

	Chemical Informatics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Indeed, one definition of chemical informatics is "the mixing of information resources to transform data into information and information into knowledge, for the intended purpose of making decisions faster in the arena of drug lead identification and optimization." Now chemical informatics is being applied to problems across the full range of chemistry.
		The ability to search large secondary databases such as Chemical Abstracts or Medline easily and precisely and to move s eamlessly back and forth between the original primary journal literature and the abstracting and indexing databases is one of the truly great achievements of modern chemical informatics research.
		Not only can chemical structures be used as search keys in such systems, but also unknown properties and spec tra can be predicted using chemical informatics tools and techniques that draw on the existing knowledge base of chemistry.

	Chemical Peels \| Chemical Peel Surgery and Surgeons
		In some states, a medical degree is not required to perform chemical peels - even the strongest phenol peels - and many states have laws that permit non-physicians to administer certain peel solutions, but regulate the strengths which they are permitted to apply.
		A chemical peel is most commonly performed for cosmetic reasons, to enhance appearance and self-confidence, and may be performed in conjunction with a facelift.
		However, a chemical peel is not a substitute for a facelift, and does not prevent or slow the aging process.

	Iraq's Chemical Weapon Program
		After launching a research effort in the 1970s, Iraq was able to use chemical weapons in its war against Iran and to kill large numbers of its own Kurdish population in the 1980s.
		Chemical nerve agents tend to have little or no incubation or latent period in the body.
		Chemicals that serve as ingredients for making chemical weapon agents are known as "precursors." In the early stages of its chemical weapon program Iraq imported the necessary precursors.

		The protocol does have large loopholes including the fact that it does not prohibit the manufacture and threat of use of chemical weapons; the protocol is rather vague in the use of the term "other gas;" and the protocol has no provisions for the punishment of countries that use such chemical weapons.
		During 1952 in the United Kingdom, during research on perspective chemical agents being developed from insecticides (chemical weapons often came from the study of insecticides and herbicides) a chemical agent which was many times greater in lethal properties than any other known chemical agent at the time was discovered.

	Chemical Weapons, Nuclear War - by Jorge Hirsch
		As the U.S. bombers are about to take off, there will be no time to talk about the fact that Iran has signed and ratified the Chemical Weapons Convention (in 1993 and 1997, respectively) that requires it to terminate production and eliminate stockpiles over a period of years.
		Instead, it will be emphasized that Iran used chemical weapons in the Iran-Iraq war (conveniently omitting the fact that it was responding to chemical attacks by Iraq) and that it could use them again against U.S. troops next door.
		Given these prospects, the U.S. should be focusing on low-key negotiations with Iran to reach a mutually acceptable agreement with respect to Iran's nuclear ambitions (which are, at least in the view of Russia and China, entirely legitimate), instead of issuing strident denunciations.

		Because chemical weapons are best suited for delivery with larger caliber artillery pieces, it is worth noting that over the last two years the North has further increased the number of long-range 240mm multiple rocket launcher systems and 170mm howitzers, all placed in hardened sites near the DMZ.
		North Korea's chemical defense force is estimated to be around 13,000 personnel, probably making it the third-largest CW service in the world, with chemical defense units incorporated at the regimental level.
		Ostensibly, this chemical was intended for use by a North Korean entity for electroplating purposes.
