General Chemistry
1. Give the importance of studying Chemistry.
- Chemistry is an important branch of science. Chemistry deals with the matter that form our
environment and the transformation that the matter undergoes. Chemistry is connected with
composition, structure and properties of the matter.
For Me, that's why it is important to study in chemistry because it explains the future behavior of plants
and animals and all of us use chemicals directly or indirectly in our daily lives and it helps us helps
exploring things which are unknown to mankind.
2. Different Branches in Chemistry.
* Organic Chemistry: Organic chemistry is the study of carbon and its compounds. It is the study of the
chemistry of life and reactions occurring in living organisms.
* Inorganic Chemistry: Inorganic chemistry is the study of compounds not covered by organic chemistry.
* Analytical Chemistry: Analytical chemistry is the study of the chemistry of matter and the development
of tools to measure the properties of matter.
* Physical Chemistry: Physical chemistry is the branch of chemistry that applies physics to the study of
chemistry, which commonly includes the applications of thermodynamics and quantum mechanics to
chemistry.
* Biochemistry: Biochemistry is the study of chemical processes that occur inside living organisms.
Examples of key molecules include proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, lipids, drugs, and
neurotransmitters.
