Chemistry Chemistry is the study of matter Structure – how its put together composition - what it is made of changes – physical and chemical energy - added or deleted to effect change
Types of Chemistry Organic chemistry Inorganic chemistry Analytical chemistry Physical chemistry Nuclear chemistry Biochemistry Organic chemistry Inorganic chemistry Analytical chemistry Physical chemistry Nuclear chemistry Biochemistry
Matter Has inertia – due to mass and volume Resistance to change in motion Made of atoms In constant motion – thus has energy The ability to do work Potential Kinetic Has inertia – due to mass and volume Resistance to change in motion Made of atoms In constant motion – thus has energy The ability to do work Potential Kinetic
