Chemistry is a quite old science that describes different kinds of substances. The origins of today's chemistry have come from the ancient times. It used to be called alchemy - there were the attempts to turn iron into gold. The primary objective of the today's chemists is to scrutinize the reactions that are happening on the atomic level and get known more about the processes happen between various matters. Another objective of this newest science is to determine the laws that can explain the processes and phenomena in chemical reactions. That may help to generate the required substances synthetically. Chemistry interacts very closely with biology and physics.

Inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry analytical chemistry, physical and biological chemistry are the chapters of general definition “Chemistry”.

The name of organic chemistry has been created because chemists believed that the organic components have the connection to the life. However, that was a misunderstanding. Organic elements may be produced in ways that do not related to life or living organisms. On the contrary, some inorganic components are necessary for some life organisms, for example, cooper and iron.

Organic chemistry performs the researches of matters which are made of carbon and hydrogen. Thanks to it year by year the humanity get known more and more about it and that knowledge is very helpful. A huge amount of various products that we utilize in everyday life has been invented with assistance of organic components.

Analytical chemistry is a subdivision of chemistry that attempts to determine the laws of processes which take place in compositions of organic and inorganic substances. The molecules and atoms of the matter are examined in details by that science. It also performs the researches to define the composition and characteristics of given components. Analytical chemistry is experimental in nature and in this way it is similar to physical chemistry. The chemists who work in that field bring much for the saving of natural resources and the safety of the environment.
