From the moment of birth, we are surrounded by Chemistry. The air we breathe, the food we eat and the clothes we wear; they’re all Chemistry. Chemistry is the study of substances: what they’re made of, how they interact with each other and the role they play in living things. From research in space to the depths of the oceans, Chemistry helps students understand the world around us.
