  • Physical chemistry: 

    is the study of macroscopic properties, atomic properties, and phenomena in chemical systems. A physical chemist may study such things as the rates of chemical reactions, the energy transfers that occur in reactions, or the physical structure of materials at the molecular level.
  • Organic chemistry
    the study of chemicals containing carbon
  • Inorganic chemistry
    the study of chemicals that, in general, are not primarily based on carbon. Deals with the design and properties of materials involved in energy and information technology.
  • Analytical Chemistry
    the study of the composition of matter. It focuses on separating, identifying, and quantifying chemicals in samples of matter.
  • Biochemistry
    study of chemical processes that occur in living things. Research may cover anything from basic cellular processes up to understanding disease states so better treatments can be developed.
  • Matter
    anything that occupies space and has mass
  • Solids
    A matter that is relatively rigid and has fixed shapes and volumes.
  • liquids
    A matter that has fixed volumes but flow to assume the shape of their containers.
  • Gases
    A matter with neither fixed shape nor fixed volumes and expands to completely fill their containers.
  • pure substance
    that has a fixed chemical composition and characteristic properties. substance that is a colorless, odorless
  • mixtures substance
    which are combinations of two or more pure substances in variable proportions in which the individual substances retain their identity
  • homogeneous
    When all portions of a material are in the same state, have no visible boundaries, and are uniform throughout it is a?
  • heterogeneous
    If the composition and properties of a material are not completely uniform it is?
  • Physical properties
    It is a characteristic that can be measured without changing composition of the sample under study such as mass, color, and volume.
  • Chemical properties
    The characteristic ability of a substance to react to form new substances such as flammability and susceptibility to corrosion.
  • Extensive physical properties
    The amount of substance and include mass, weight, and volume
  • Intensive physical properties
    It does not depend on the amount of substance including color, melting point, boiling point, electrical conductivity, and physical state at a given temperature.
  • Development of chemistry begin in?
    5TH century BC began in Alexandra, Egypt and developed in China.
  • alchemy
    Chemistry in 5th century called?
  • Gold
    Alexandrian alchemists tried to turn stone into?
  • Gunpowder
    The development of Chemistry in China produces a useful that is used in war and fireworks.
  • Importance of chemistry in criminology
    Examining the body part of the suspect
    Fingerprint check
