Can chemistry education to reset to more meaningfully equip students and the public to address emerging global challenges?
The IUPAC Gold Book is an exemplar of an important asset of IUPAC that is digitally represented for preservation, maintenance, dissemination, programmatic access, and semantic application.
The International System of Units is getting a makeover. All of the new definitions are expressed in terms of seven ‘defining constants’ and the numerical values of these seven constants when expressed in SI units, provides the definition of all SI units.
To facilitate the continually-increasing global trade in chemicals and to manage it safely, understanding toxicology has become essential to the classification of toxicity, accurate labelling, and the production of accompanying safety data sheets. The glossaries are valuable toxicology references for students and researchers, as well as for those involved in chemicals legislation, regulation, management, and risk assessment.
Climate and air quality computer models are important tools which integrate our knowledge of emissions, observations, atmospheric chemistry, and meteorology. The IUPAC Task Group on Atmospheric Chemical Kinetic Data Evaluation provides the evaluated chemical data for atmospheric chemistry used in these models.
The written and spoken word are no longer sufficient in an era of digital information and interoperable data exchange world-wide. IUPAC is taking a leading role in the development of a new language for chemistry – one that is understandable by both humans AND their computers!
