Greetings and respect.
Furthermore, it is with regret that I inform you that following my recent illness,
doctors have advised me of the necessity of resting myself from the burden of many tasks
and reducing them as much as possible. Therefore, I find myself forced, with regret, to submit
my resignation from the membership of the respected Council, requesting you to kindly accept it. I would like to seize
this opportunity to express my deep appreciation for what I have always received from Your Excellency
and all the honorable members in terms of friendly cooperation and the precious trust you have bestowed upon me,
the memory of which will remain alive in my soul. I thank you and the esteemed members very
much for that, wishing the venerable Council continued success in its righteous deeds.
Please accept the assurances of my highest respect.

Chemistry Notes for the Second Year Intermediate
1959 - 1960
I N T R O D U C T I O N
1. What is Chemistry ?
Chemistry is a science which deals with the constitution of matter, its properties, its methods of preparation, its reaction with other substances, and the changes which occur on it.
2. What can a chemist do ?
A chemist can know the reasons for the chemical changes of matter and can make from simple substances new preparations which increase the prosperity of the human race. It is the chemist who can make ⟦soap,⟧ matches, cement, photographic films, dyes, explosives, glass and drugs. Every industry needs the chemist and the progress of mankind lies in his hands.
3. Is chemistry a ⟦well-developed⟧ science?
Chemistry is still in its ⟦child⟧hood. New discoveries show us that there is a ve⟦ry wi⟧de field for investigating the secrets of nature. Ther⟦e are⟧ some simple chemical re-actions which nature can easi⟦ly do⟧ but are still not done in the laboratory by the chem⟦ist⟧. Our bodies are complicated chemical factories about which ⟦we⟧ know very little.
The future will prove how little we now know about the nature of matter and how vast is the field of science which lies before us.
PRELIMINARY DEFINITIONS
4. Matter: Is anything that occupies a space and has a weight ⟦e.g.⟧ iron, wood, air.
5. Body: Is a limited part ⟦of⟧ matter e.g. knife, chair.
6. Mass: Is the quantity of matter which a body contains.
7. States of matter
a) Solids: Are those substances that have a definite shape and volume. Their molecules are close to each other and have a big attraction among them e.g. glass.
b) Liquids: Are those substances that have variable shape and definite volume, their molecules are somewhat close to each other and have less attraction among them than ⟦in⟧ the case of Solids.
