Chapter 1-Section 1Chemistry is a Physical Science

Objective:Review branches of chemistry

Chemistry is the study of the composition, structure, and properties of matter.

Chemistry helps us to answers questions like:

What is a material’s makeup? How does a material change when heated, cooled, or mixed with other materials and why does this behavior occur?
