The science which scrutinizes matter is called chemistry. It was created out of alchemy, an old science which sought, among other objectives, to find the elixir of life and do gold of iron. The main purpose of the today's chemists is to scrutinize the processes that are happening on the molecular level and get known more about the processes happen between different substances. What is more, chemistry as a science is associated with proposing a description for the forenamed phenomena in the form of a law. Chemistry, biology and physics are the studies which have lots of joint objectives.

Chemistry has the great deal of various subdivisions.

The calling of organic chemistry was created because chemists believed that the organic elements have the relation to the life. Nevertheless, that was a misunderstanding. Organic elements may be produced in ways that do not related to life or living organisms. Some inorganic components as cooper or iron, for example, play the essential role in the in the reactions of living organisms.

The matters which include carbon and hydrogen are the first objects of researches executed by organic chemistry. That science studies their construction, properties, composition and processes. A great deal of various products which we use in daily life has been created with help of organic components.

Analytical chemistry is a subdivision of chemistry that attempts to describe the laws of reactions that occur in compositions of organic and inorganic matters. The molecules and atoms of the substance are examined in details by this science. It researches the elements given, their composition and features. Analytical and physical chemistry are very similar, due to they research the same processes but take some various information from them. It is founded on the researches and the results are quite useful for providing the safety of the environmental and guarding some natural resources.
