This involved the metals' atoms, which are the minuscule objects that make up all substances.

Platinum plat means 'silver, silvery'.
Platinum is a 'white gold' that is difficult to distinguish from silver.
The element symbol is Pt.
Platinum is harder than silver and does not rust.
It was discovered in the 18th century in Mexico, a colony of the Spanish, and named platinum.
'White gold' is not platinum, but an alloy of gold with nickel.
--- p.28
Toothpaste is just one of a huge array of strange but useful substances dreamed up by chemists.
--- p.63

Publisher's Review
Highly recommended by EBSi·ETUS English representative instructor Joo Hye-yeon!

Horrible Science, a must-read science book for children around the world exported to over 30 countries and a representative work of Scholastic, a global educational publisher, has been officially published as part of Willbook's 'First English Class' series.
〈Horrible Science〉 is a science book that humorously explains interesting knowledge not taught in school through text and illustrations. It is recommended as a must-read English book by Korea's top English education experts.
This series, which was translated and published in Korea under the title “Ah!

Recently, it was introduced as an English original text for science-oriented children on the educational program “Please Give Me Grades: Teachers,” and even became sold out.
The newly published 『Horrible Science: A First-Time Science English Class』 is the only original text reading textbook in Korea based on this renowned science series, created under an official licensing agreement with Scholastic.
Professor Joo Hye-yeon strongly recommends this book as a fun experience for both science-oriented students who find English difficult and liberal arts-oriented students who find science unfamiliar.

All About the Dizzying Chaos of Chemistry: 'Chemical Chaos'
It is said that learning science in English helps you remember the information more accurately and for a longer time.
Consisting of 20 volumes, 『Horrible Science: First Science English Class』 covers all areas of science, including physics, chemistry, life science, and earth science. Each volume features a story that focuses on important scientific concepts, greatly contributing to natural subject learning and background knowledge acquisition.
In 『Horrible Science - Chemical Chaos』, chemistry, which has been a part of human development and history, is the main character.
‘Chemical’ is deeply embedded in our daily lives.
The clothes we wear, the food we eat, the various medicines we make, and even the cars we drive are all the result of chemical advancements.
Let's learn how alchemy, which transformed lead into gold, developed into chemistry, and how Lavoisier, the French chemist known as the "father of chemistry," met his end after burning a diamond (!).
We can also examine both the light and dark sides of chemical development that have fallen on our planet.
If you learn chemistry in English, you can easily see that the strangely named molecule called 'carbon dioxide' is actually a substance called carbon dioxide, which is made of carbon (carbon) and two (di) oxygen (oxide).
With 『Horrible Science: A Science English Class for Beginners』, you will be able to understand and fluently recite various chemistry concepts in English.
Let's make the confusing world of chemistry more orderly by reading in English!
