Chemical digestion occurs int he stomach where acids break down the food turning it into chyme, and also happens in the mouth where saliva mixed with enzymes break food into bolus. It also occurs in the liver, when it produces bile to break down fat, and the liver also breaks down medicine, and small intestine, the small intestine is where the main chemical digestion occurs, the small intestine absorbs all the nutrients into the blood streams.

Most chemical digestion occurs in the duodenum, which is part of the small intestine. Chemical digestion also occurs to a lesser degree in the mouth and stomach. No chemical digestion occurs in the esophagus or large intestine.

Some chemical digestion takes place in the mouth (amylase enzyme) and the stomach (proteases). But by far the most intense chemical digestion occurs in the small intestine.
