The content related to forces and interactions is important to most science disciplines. While chemistry is the most obvious place to introduce these ideas, it is important to connect aspects of this big idea to phenomena in biology, physics, and Earth science courses as well. For example, the same types of electrical forces involved in chemical bonds also govern interactions among the (nanoscale) biological molecules that regulate life processes, and they play a critical role in the process of mineral crystallization.
