the composition (make-up) of matter
the changes that matter undergoes What is matter? Anything that:
has mass
and
occupies space (volume). Mass vs Weight Mass: a measure of the amount of matter that an object contains. (SI unit kilogram, kg)
Weight: The force with which the earth pulls on an object. (SI unit Newton, N) The 5 Branches of Chemistry Inorganic
Organic
Analytical
Physical
Biochemistry
Inorganic Chemistry The study of chemicals that do not contain carbon. Organic Chemistry The study of chemicals that contain carbon.
Origin: study of chemicals in living organisms. Analytical Chemistry Composition of matter. http://besg.group.shef.ac.uk/Facilities/Images/gcms.JPG Ex: Mass Spectrometer Gas Chromatograph Physical Chemistry The study of :
The mechanism
The rate
The energy transfer
that happens when matter undergoes change. Biochemistry Study of processes that take place in organisms. Democritus (Greece, 4th Century BC) First atomic theory
Atom (indivisible). Alchemists (~300BC-1650 AD) China, India, Arabia, Europe, Egypt
