2 '''Chemistry''' is the study of the basic [[atomic]] building-blocks of nature and how they combine to form the [[solid]]s, [[liquid]]s, and [[gas]]es that make up life and everything else we know. For the many different [[chemical element]]s and compounds, see:
4 * The [[Periodic table]]
5 * [[Inorganic chemistry]], including [[solid state chemistry]], which studies the basic principles that are applied in [[mineralogy]] and [[Materials Science]]
6 * [[Organic chemistry]], which underlies [[biochemistry]] and [[polymer]] chemistry
7 * [[Physical chemistry]], which includes [[computational chemistry]], [[quantum chemistry]] and [[surface chemistry]]
8 * [[Analytical chemistry]], the basis of [[environmental chemistry]]
10 For some basic concepts see:
