Chemical Engineering in Daily Life – Question 59: Do you know why you are willing to smell gasoline, kerosene, and diesel?

I really can’t imagine having such a feeling except for the smell of burning firewood

I like to smell it. Why is that?

There are aromatic compounds, giving it a pleasant fragrance. :)

I like this one too, but I feel like harmful substances might be inhaled. I used to smell it when I was a child, but I don’t do that anymore; I don’t know why. I’ll wait for the teacher to give an explanation

Waiting patiently for the teacher to announce the answers...........

I like the smell of the gas emitted by tractors

As a child, I would get extremely excited whenever I came across that vehicle covered in green paint, with four wheels and smoke coming from it. I would run after it desperately, inhaling its pleasant scent until I was completely exhausted; only then would I stop, watching as it disappeared into the dust. Later, I learned about it through pictures and stories of Uncle Lei Feng. As time passed, many things from my memory faded away, but what remained was that delightful, cheerful scent, filled with curiosity and mystery. It was an indescribable feeling, an unforgettable pleasure. In the blink of an eye, several years passed, and the Liberation trucks gradually faded from our sight, sinking deeper into memory. The Liberation trucks are no longer around; instead, the Dongfeng trucks have arrived, bringing with them a new kind of beauty. Whether it’s the old Liberation trucks or the Dongfeng trucks, the scent remains the same – unforgettable, soothing, and full of charm. Every time, I close my eyes and take a deep breath, longing for that scent to take me back to those wonderful days of my childhood… Years later, that boy who used to chase after those vehicles grew up. Carrying the memories and curiosity of his childhood, he stepped into the world of chemistry. Chemistry once again allowed him to experience that scent from his childhood. The things from our memory are always so beautiful, even though they can also bring harm.

Master, what’s wrong? How are you helping me now? Has there been a decision regarding those bowls? Ah, hahaha, I get it – I didn’t go and check it in person yesterday. And :lol, I also checked out the decanter; the result was as I expected: 18 big bowls, quite a lot indeed :lol. Is the decanter not that useful after all? Is there any?

I used to like smelling it when I was little, but now I can’t anymore. I used to smell it every day; now I avoid it as soon as I see it, and it’s even caused problems with my nose :)

I’ve seen reports before that children like to smell the smell of lighters, and accidents have occurred as a result
