Diferrentiate physical chemistry to other branch of chemistry?
I am in Physical Chemistry this year in college and it is also known as Theoretical Chemistry. -Physical chemistry looks at chemistry in a mathematically way that allows the chemist to know the thermodynamics and kinetics (energy and rates) associated with chemical reactions. -Analytical chemistry deals with quantifying quantities of substances in samples. -Organic chemistry deals with organic molecules (i.e. contain carbon atoms) and the properties of that set of molecules, including possible reactions one can carry out to manipulate the structures. -Biochemistry deals with the chemistry associated with living organisms. -Inorganic Chemistry involves the study of molecules not containing carbon and their properties.
Differentiate the major branches and sub branches of chemistry?
There are five main major branches of chemistry. They are organic, inorganic, physical, analytical and bio chemistry.Organic chemistry includes stereochemistry, medicinal chemistry, organometallic chemistry, physical organic chemistry and polymer chemistry. Inorganic chemistry includes bioinorganic chemistry, coordination chemistry, geochemistry, inorganic technology, nuclear chemistry, organometallic chemistry, solid state chemistry, synthetic inorganic chemistry and industrial inorganic chemistry.Physical chemistry is divided into electrochemistry, photochemistry, surface chemistry, chemical chemistry, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics and spectroscopy.Analytical chemistry is divided into qualitative and quantitative analysis. Biochemistry is divided into enzymology, endocrinology, clinical biochemistry and molecular biochemistry.
Is physical chemistry a traditional area of study chemistry?
Modern physical chemistry was developed after 1850.
Is a hurricane a physical system?
Yes, a hurricane is a physical system dominated primarily by thermodynamics.
What are the five branches of chemistry?
Physical chemistry Analytical chemistry Organic chemistry Inorganic chemistry Materials chemistry
Does organic chemistry overlap physical chemistry?
Yes all chemistry comes from physical chemistry. Organic chemistry is the reaction of organic molecules (those with C-H bonds). How those reactions happen is physical chemistry i.e. think thermodynamics.
