Biochemistry is , "the organic chemistry of compounds and processes occurring in organisms; the effort to understand Biology within the context of chemistry", according to princeton.edu. I like to say it is the chemistry of life, including enzymes, macromolecule (proteins,fats,carbohydrates,nucleic acids) structures and functions, and much more!
Physical Chemistry (or P. Chem, for short), is, "the study of macroscopic, atomic, subatomic, and particulate phenomena in chemical systems in terms of physical laws and concepts; often using the principles, practices and concepts ofphysics like motion, energy, force, time, thermodynamics, quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics and dynamics", according to wikipedia. It's pretty much physics and Chemistry combined, and it's a tough class.

Organic, inorganic, biochemistry, physical, and analytical chemistry
The five main subdivisions of chemistry are analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and biochemistry. Each area focuses on different aspects of matter and its interactions.
The five main branches of chemistry are organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, and biochemistry. Each branch focuses on different aspects of matter and the interactions between substances. Organic chemistry studies carbon-based compounds, inorganic chemistry focuses on non-carbon compounds, physical chemistry examines the physical properties and behavior of matter, analytical chemistry involves identifying and quantifying substances, and biochemistry studies chemical processes in living organisms.
there arent any
there are five branches: inorganic, organic, analytical, physical, and biochemistry. they could be further broken down into sub-branches such as organometallic chemistry, physical organic chemistry, electroanalytical chemistry, and so on and so forth.
I am thinking that the study of the mechanism that drives the rate of energy transfer in chemical reactions, would most likely me studied in most detail in Biochemistry. This would also be covered on a smaller scale in your basic chemistry classes.
thermochemistry which may be part of physical chemistry at some universities.
Chemistry can be divided into five traditional areas of study: organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, and biochemistry. These subdisciplines focus on different aspects of chemistry and allow for a more specialized study of the field.
The five main areas of chemistry are organic chemistry (study of carbon-containing compounds), inorganic chemistry (study of non-carbon compounds), physical chemistry (study of the physical principles and properties of matter), analytical chemistry (study of the identification and quantification of matter), and biochemistry (study of chemical processes in living organisms).
Biochemistry is a chapter of chemistry; biochemistry is the chemistry of living organisms.
