hello how are you today I will explain to you what is the chemistry that studies what are the main branches of chemistry its importance and some examples of daily life where chemistry is present and you had not realized it let's start what is chemistry chemistry in the science that is dedicated to the study of substances and how they can be mixed or transformed to form new substances chemistry helps us to know how a substance is formed as if it were a puzzle, allowing us to know what its components are , its properties, its structure and
how it could behave against other compounds to form a new one if you believe that chemistry is a new science because it is not like that since prehistory man has used chemistry to live although without knowing it because when he discovered fire he used it to cook his food mold metals creating alloys such as bronze and making clay and ceramic molds made life a little easier for him, however. go as a science was born in the modern age and is further strengthened in the contemporary era where various branches of activity that study chemistry arise Chemistry
is an interdisciplinary science as it couples very well with other areas of knowledge to give rise to new fields of study for example can be associated with biology technology engineering physics to form biochemistry biotechnology chemical engineering and chemical physics respectively ten main branches of chemistry number 1 organic chemistry is one of the main branches of chemistry already which is responsible for studying the compounds that have carbon carbon or carbon hydrogen bonds in their chemical structure substances known as organic, for example methanol, ethanol, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, oil, among many others number 2 inorganic chemistry
is responsible for studying inorganic substances these are substances that do not have carbon-carb bonds carbon or hydrogen and if they contain carbon in their structure they are not forming ionic or electrovalent bonds examples of inorganic substances are oxides peroxides metallic intruders hydro volatiles have joined volatile salts oxy acids oxy salts among others number 3 analytical chemistry is responsible for studying the chemical composition of materials through chemical processes such as the analytical march that are a set of reactions that reveal certain chemical groups or inorganic ions by the formation of complexes of a color specific number
4 industrial chemistry is dedicated to the manufacture of materials or substances in large quantities using chemical processes for their preparation the manufactured products can be for a single consumption of humanity or as raw material for other industries number 5 physical chemistry studies the matter from both a physical and chemical point of view, that is to say that combines the study of chemical interactions in the formation of new substances with the physical changes that matter undergoes is based on electrochemistry thermodynamics kinetics quantum mechanical chemistry number 6 biochemistry this wonderful science studied the composition, interaction and products
obtained in molecular chemical processes within of living organisms chemically explains the miracle of life in each functional process of organs and tissues number 7 environmental chemistry focuses its study on the impact of certain chemical substances on the environment and the life of living organisms, especially those waste substances that result from chemical processes processed by large industries and their impact on ecosystems in this sense green chemistry tries to minimize the negative impact with the production of less toxic or biodegradable substances number 8 theoretical chemistry includes various types of chemistry Like quantum and computational among others, quantum
chemistry attempts to describe the principles and general rules in the interaction of molecules of different materials from a mathematical point of view by studying the fundamental behavior of matter at a molecular scale and for this it can be support in computer programs that help to better visualize the behavior of molecules through simulators number 9 medical chemistry is linked to pharmaceuticals is responsible for searching for new substances with therapeutic use number 10 astrochemistry studies the components of interstellar matter and bodies celestial bodies of space as well as reactions with radiation and cosmic dust and molecular clouds
how interesting don't you think the importance of chemistry is this science so important that everything that man has created and what does not bring about a chemical process is natural or artificial everything that surrounds us is made up of atoms that in their together they form molecules and molecules are in constant interaction for this reason the science that explains these interactions is chemistry chemistry together with biology and other disciplines help to understand the processes of life both those that occur within living organisms and those that occur outside of it with the study of chemistry have
been able to know the behavior of molecules in different reactions forming substances that can favor our daily life in many aspects such as health, food , industry, agriculture, among others, and how it is a exact science by knowing its laws and principles we can create all the substances that are needed for the benefit of life although we can also study the negative interactions that damage health, likewise we can study the substances that pollute the environment and destroy ecosystems from of highly toxic industrial chemical waste that damages and he planet and there also the importance of
knowing the impact that these substances have on ecosystems being the field of study of environmental chemistry examples of chemistry in everyday life this science is so fascinating that everything we know is made up of molecules and in their manufacturing or degradation process involves chemical reactions do not believe me I will mention some examples and you will be surprised how common they are example 1 the food we eat is broken down in our body through digestion and other chemical reactions so that we can absorb its nutrients example 2 the water we drink is the main component
of living beings and the best known chemically universal solvent is made up of two molecules of hydrogen and one of oxygen, the famous h2o for example 3 the glass with which so many objects are made is made thanks to a chemical process by mixing silica sand, sodium carbonate and limestone at 1500 degrees centigrade rados example 4 the plastic in toys is made from a mixture of cellulose coal natural gas salt and oil example 5 the paper we write on the clothes we wear fireworks the fuel for cars etc. all are made through a specific chemical
process as you can see everything that surrounds us has a chemical structure it really is everywhere finally if you want to know all the chemical elements that are known so far it is a matter of taking a look at the periodic table that is that good it is a table that mentions the 118 elements known so far the elements are organized according to their atomic number classified into 18 groups or families and distributed in four blocks called s&p d and f according to the orbital in which the last electro resides we have finished this video
