Natural vs. Synthetic project by Ximena Villa https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9 Made with magic en-us 2020-11-16 20:24:21 UTC 2024-12-13 11:32:55 UTC hello@padlet.com Define natural and synthetic 1570245 https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/937847918 Natural is something that the Earth created.
Synthetic materials are man-made. In the picture below you will se a tomato that can become synthetic by making any synthetic product that contains tomato. Plastics are derived from natural, organic materials such as cellulose, coal, natural gas, salt, and of course crude oil. ]]> 2020-11-18 17:26:55 UTC https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/937847918 What are synthetic materials made of ? 1570245 https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938715629 Synthetic materials are made of natural materials but they are changed by the men with a lot of chemicals and special process so they can have a different use. Here are some examples.]]> 2020-11-18 20:18:19 UTC https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938715629 1570245 https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938742979 in this drawing I tried to draw some things that the crude oil creates. Crude oil is natural but petrol and polystyrene are synthetic.]]> 2020-11-18 20:25:14 UTC https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938742979 What are pros and cons of natural diamonds? 1570245 https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938767985 PROS: 
(natural)                         (synthetic)                  
-uses less energy         - its made in a couple of weeks
-has more value           - cheaper than natural diamonds
                                        - more perfect
                                        - less expensive
CONS   
(natural)                                   (synthetic)
- more expensive -they use a lot of energy to make one
- bad for the environment
- less perfect]]> 2020-11-18 20:31:20 UTC https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938767985 How do synthetic materials affect society ? 1570245 https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938825581 Synthetic materials change our lives in good ways, but it can also change it in bad ways.
Every time there is a plastic bag made, a plastic cup, or a natural diamond, we are harming the environment way more that what we actually think. Soon or later the plastic cup and the bag cup will be in the ocean and it takes up to 1000 years to decompose, and a diamond is really harmful to make. At the same time, synthetic products make our life much easier, and they are helpful, and there are also synthetic materials that do not harm the environment.]]> 2020-11-18 20:47:03 UTC https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938825581 1570245 https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938969179 2020-11-18 21:30:55 UTC https://padlet.com/1570245/l3fk1sl1xlxkztq9/wish/938969179
