    Study Notes

    Chemistry is a broad field of study that encompasses a wide-ranging discipline, including organic, inorganic, and physical chemistry. These subdisciplines focus on different areas of chemistry, each with their properties, structure, and molecular bonds.

    1. Organic Chemistry: Organic chemistry is the study of the molecules of life, mainly concerned with the structure and behavior of organic molecules, which are composed of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and a few other elements Traditional organic chemists are concerned with synthesizing new molecules and developing new methods for their synthesis Some areas of organic chemistry include:
    • Sythesizing new molecules
    • Biochemistry
    • Biophysical chemistry
    • Polymer chemistry
    • Organometallic chemistry
    1. Inorganic Chemistry: Inorganic chemistry focuses on the properties and structure of atoms, molecules, and molecular bonds, not containing carbon Some areas of inorganic chemistry that are especially important are catalysis, materials chemistry, and bioinorganic chemistry Inorganic chemists work on:
    • Catalysts
    • Materials chemistry
    • Bioinorganic chemistry
    • Organometallic chemistry
    1. Physical Chemistry: Physical chemistry encompasses many topics and includes significant numerical problem-solving It is concerned with the study of energy and atoms/molecules, often with lots of maths Some areas of physical chemistry include:
    • Thermochemistry
    • Chemical Equilibrium
    • Ionic Equilibrium
