While taking a walk along the beach, you might have noticed shells that have inner surfaces that shimmer in colorful patterns when they reflect the sunlight. The iridescent substance responsible for it is called nacre, or more commonly: mother-of-pearl. The name says it all, because the shell comes from one of the species of mollusk that can also produce pearls. In entertaining biweekly episodes our Chemical Reporter answers questions of our Podcast listeners on Chemistry in our everyday life.
