Hoʻokaʻawale ʻia nā puaʻa organik a me nā mea ʻole ma muli o ko lākou kumu a me nā waiwai kemika.
Puna: Lawe ʻia a hoʻohui ʻia nā puaʻa organik mai nā holoholona, ​​nā mea kanu, nā minerala a i ʻole nā ​​mea hoʻohuihui kūlohelohe. Hoʻopili ʻia nā puaʻa inorganic mai nā ores, minerala a i ʻole nā ​​mea hoʻohuihui inorganic synthetic.
Nā waiwai kemika: Ua haku ʻia nā molekole o nā puaʻa kūlohelohe i nā hale paʻakikī i loaʻa i ke kalapona, a ua hoʻoholo ʻia ko lākou waihoʻoluʻu e ke ʻano kemika o ka hui kino. ʻO nā molekala o nā puaʻa inorganic ka mea maʻamau i nā mea inorganic, a ua hoʻoholo ʻia ko lākou kala e nā waiwai a me ke ʻano o nā mea.
Paʻa: ʻoi aku ka paʻa o nā puaʻa anorganic ma mua o nā puaʻa kūlohelohe a ʻoi aku ke kūpaʻa i ka māmā, ka waika, ka alkali a me ka wela. Hiki ke wāwahi a hoʻololi paha i ka kala ma lalo o kekahi mau kūlana. Ka Laulā: Ma muli o nā ʻokoʻa o ko lākou ʻano kemika, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka laula o nā puaʻa organik, e ʻae ana i nā kala ʻoi aku ka oi. ʻO nā puaʻa anorganic he ʻano haiki o nā kala. Nā kahua hoʻohana: He kūpono nā puaʻa organik no nā kala, pena, plastics, pepa a me nā māla ʻē aʻe. Hoʻohana nui ʻia nā puaʻa inorganic i nā ceramics, aniani, pigments, coatings a me nā māla ʻē aʻe.

Pono e hoʻomaopopo ʻia he mau pono ponoʻī a me nā hiʻohiʻona nā puaʻa organik a me nā ʻano like ʻole, a ʻo ke koho ʻana o ka puaʻa e hoʻohana ai e pili ana i nā pono noi kikoʻī a me ka hopena i makemake ʻia.
