• Organic chemistry
focuses on carbon
compounds. It’s the
study of molecules
containing carbon
atoms, including
their structure,
properties, and
reactions.
 Organic chemists
investigate organic
reactions, polymers,
drugs, and even
fuels. Essentially,
organic chemistry is
Inorganic

bonds.
While
some
inorganic
compounds
do
have
carbon,
most of them
involve
metals.
Topics
of
interest
to
inorganic
chemists
include
ionic
compounds,
organometallic
compounds,
minerals,
cluster
compounds, and
solid-state
compounds1.
Analytical chemistry focuses on
understanding the chemistry of
matter and developing tools to
measure its properties.
ANALYTICAL
CHEMISTRY:
Analytical
chemists
perform
quantitative and qualitative analyses,
separations,
extractions,
distillation,

Physical chemistry applies
principles from physics to
the study of chemistry. It
often involves thermodynamics
and quantum mechanics.
Physical chemists
explore topics like
energy changes during
chemical reactions,
molecular dynamics, and
• Biochemistry
investigates
chemical processes
within living
organisms. It’s
closely related to
molecular biology,
cell biology, and
genetics.
