Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes it undergoes. It deals with the composition, structure, and properties of matter. The main branches of chemistry include organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, biochemistry, and theoretical chemistry. Chemistry can be done through basic research, applied research, or technological development. Basic research increases knowledge without a particular purpose, applied research solves problems, and technological development produces products that improve lives.
