Compounds Quotes
These compounds quotes range from technical organic chemistry to a lighter, figurative use of the word describing added creative joy.
These compounds quotes mostly come from scientific reflection on structure and reaction. For more on the underlying science, our Chemistry quotes are a direct companion.

- Carbon
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Organic compounds exist in which a hydrogen atom, joined to the carbon, acquires acid properties as a result of the proximity of certain functional groupings.
- Kinds

- Nov 07, 2020
The reactions of organic magnesium compounds are of two kinds - reactions of substitution and reactions of addition.
- Go
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
We actors do this to pretend, to go into imaginary circumstances, so when the imaginary circumstance is of a different time, that just compounds the joy of doing what we do.
- Life

- Nov 07, 2020
Bacteria evolve, and so they become resistant to existing drugs. Sometimes they revert, depending on how damaging the mutation is to the life cycle of the bacteria. Mutations that give rise to resistance against particular compounds do increase, and that is why you constantly have to have new ones.
- Life

- Nov 07, 2020
Life began three and a half billion years ago, necessarily about as simple as it could be, because life arose spontaneously from the organic compounds in the primeval oceans.
- Group
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Why, for example, should a group of simple, stable compounds of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen struggle for billions of years to organise themselves into a professor of chemistry? What's the motive?
- Building
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Historically marginalized populations have already had less access to wealth and credit building opportunities, and the continued use of credit histories to set auto insurance pricing compounds racial discrimination and exacerbates wealth inequality.
- Growth
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Mushrooms have many helpful nutrients, including beta glucans for immune enhancement, ergothioneines for antioxidative potentiation, nerve growth stimulators for helping brain function, and antimicrobial compounds for limiting viruses.
- Chemistry
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In organic chemistry, we have learnt to derive from compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen, i.e. from the hydrocarbons, all other types of combinations, such as alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, acids, etc.
- Nature
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
As soon as we can wrest from Nature the secret of the internal structure of the compounds produced by her, chemical science can then even surpass Nature by producing compounds as variations of the natural ones, which the living cell is unable to construct.
- Emotions
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Disgust is often more deeply buried than envy and anger, but it compounds and intensifies the other negative emotions.
- Determined
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
My experiments proved that the radiation of uranium compounds can be measured with precision under determined conditions and that this radiation is an atomic property of the element of uranium.

- Nov 07, 2020
Activating oxygen can produce compounds called radicals that put oxidative stress on cells. Such stress could ultimately lead to cancer and other diseases.
- Daily Life
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
Moreover, the abundance of chemical compounds and their importance in daily life hindered the chemist from investigating the question, in what does the individuality of the atoms of different elements consist.
- Nov 07, 2020
The emitters of the spectral series are without exception single atoms, not compounds of atoms.
- Diet
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
The modern diet is grossly deficient in hundreds of important plant-derived immunity-building compounds which makes us highly vulnerable to viruses, infections and disease.
- Lighter
- |
- Nov 07, 2020
In general, exchange reactions for the lighter isotopes have equilibrium constants sufficiently different from unity, so that the ratios of concentrations of the isotopes in two compounds which are in equilibrium differ by a few per cents in nearly all cases.
