    This document provides an introduction to chemistry, outlining its key areas of study. The five traditional branches of chemistry are identified as inorganic, organic, analytical, physical, and biochemistry. Inorganic chemistry involves the study of chemicals that do not contain carbon, while organic chemistry focuses on chemicals that do contain carbon. Analytical chemistry examines the composition of matter. Physical chemistry studies the mechanisms, rates, and energy transfers of chemical changes. Biochemistry analyzes the processes that occur within living organisms. The document also distinguishes between pure or basic chemistry research and applied or technological chemistry applications.

    Introduction to

    Chemistry

    The Objectives:
    Identify five traditional areas of
    study in chemistry.
    Relate pure chemistry to applied
    chemistry.
    Identify reasons to study chemistry.

    Part I
    Areas of study in chemistry

    Chemistry
    The study of:

    the composition (make-up) of


    matter
    the changes that matter undergoes

    What is matter?

    Anything that:
    has mass
    and
    occupies space (volume).

    Mass vs Weight

    Mass: a measure of the amount


    of matter that an object
    contains. (SI unit kilogram, kg)

    Weight: The force with which


    the earth pulls on an object. (SI
    unit Newton, N, kg m/s2)

    The 5 Branches of Chemistry


    Inorganic
    Organic
    Analytical
    Physical
    Biochemistry

    Inorganic Chemistry

    The study of chemicals that do


    not contain carbon.

    Organic Chemistry
    The study of chemicals that
    contain carbon.
    Origin: study of chemicals in
    living organisms.

    Organic or Inorganic ?
    Sulfuric Acid
    Methane

    H2SO4
    CH4

    Hydrochloric Acid

    Ethane

    C 2H 6

    HCl

    Analytical Chemistry

    Composition of matter.

    Ex:
    Mass
    Spectrometer
    Gas

    Physical Chemistry

    The study of :
    The mechanism
    The rate
    The energy transfer

    that happens when matter


    undergoes change.

    Biochemistry
    Study of processes that take
    place in organisms.
    Chemistry of living things

    Science
    What?
    Why?

    How?
    When?

    Science and Technology

    Science Pure

    Does not necessarily have an


    application.

    Technology Applied
    Has practical applications in
    society.
    Engineering.

    Question: Science or
    Technology?
    Studying or forming aspirin in a
    lab in small scale/pilot plans
    (small amounts).

    Question: Science or
    Technology?

    Producing aspirin tablets so that


    consumers can use them.

    Example: Discovery of Nylon


    by Wallace Carothers in
    1930s

    Microscopic- Macroscopic

    Micro (small)

    Microscopic- objects can be seen


    with a microscope.

    Macro-(from afar)

    Macroscopic- objects are seen


    without a microscope.

    Physical chemistry
    A physical chemist study
    factors that effect
    breathing rates during
    exercise

    Organic chemistry
    Athletes inhale chemicals
    developed by organic
    chemist to control
    symptoms of asthma.

    Analytical chemistry
    Analytical chemist develop
    test to detect chemicals in
    the blood. The test help to
    show if organs in the body
    are working properly.

    Biochemistry
    A biochemist study how
    the energy used for the
    concentration of muscles
    is produced and stored

    Inorganic chemistry
    An organic chemist
    explain how a lack of
    calcium can affect the
    growth and repair of
    bones.
