	Earth (chemistry) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The chemical term earths was historically applied to certain chemical substances, once thought to be elements, and this name was borrowed from one of the four classical elements of Plato.
		"Earths" later turned out to be chemical compounds, albeit difficult to decompose, such as rare earths and alkaline earths.
		In fact, earths are metallic oxides, and the corresponding metals were clasified into the corresponding groups: rare earth metals and alkaline earth metals.

		earth, in chemistry, metallic oxide not readily reducible by chemical means, e.g., alkaline earths, rare earths, and alumina.
		The name is also applied to certain absorbent clays, e.g., fuller's earth, and to other compounds, e.g., carbonates, silicates, or hydroxides.
		Earth was one of the four "roots" of the Greek philosopher Empedocles, the other three being air, water, and fire.

	Chemists Retrieve Clues To Ancient Earth Chemistry From Cretaceous Sediments
		Their results, the first high-resolution record of changes in seawater sulfate, provide a portrait of the interactions between the Earth and its atmosphere during the Cretaceous that should help scientists improve their predictions of how our climate might change as the accumulation of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases from human activities warm the planet.
		Because much of these chemicals eventually made their way to the oceans, the seawater sulfur deposited in ocean floor sediments has proven to be a particularly good way to glimpse geological and atmospheric changes over periods of millions of years.
		The scientists found that from 120 million years ago to 105 million years ago, then again from 95 million years ago to 80 million years ago, the fraction of sulfur-34 dipped even more precipitously, suggesting a sharp reduction in the amount of organic matter buried in the ocean and used by sulfate-reducing bacteria.

		It seems fairly clear, now, that the earliest Earth was, in essence, a molten ball with an atmosphere of high-pressure steam, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and the other products of volcanic emission from the differentiating planet.
		The cooling curve of the molten Earth would have reached the critical point of water by roughly 4.2-4.4 billion years ago; then it would have rained, depositing during an unknown time period 3-4 kilometers of water over the hot crust.
		This is because the early crust would have been dynamic and thin and consequently probably incapable of supporting a continental mass sufficient to reach the surface of the overlying ocean.
