Chemistry is the study of the composition, properties, and behavior of matter. It examines the structure and interactions of atomic and molecular systems. The document outlines the main fields of chemistry, including inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, and biochemistry. Each field is defined as focusing on a different area of study related to the composition and interactions of matter.
3. Chemistry, a branch of physical science, is the
study of the composition, properties and
behavior of matter. As it is a fundamental
component of matter, the atom is the basic unit
of chemistry.
