Chemistry Textbook 35.2

Chemistry is the scientific study of matter and the chemical reactions that occur between substances. It involves an exploration of matter's composition, structure, and properties, encompassing all elements that occupy space and possess mass in our world. Often referred to as "the central science," chemistry serves as a crucial connection between physics and various natural sciences like geology and biology.

A fundamental understanding of chemistry dates back to Classical Greece, where Aristotle introduced the concept of the four elements: fire, air, earth, and water. The discipline evolved significantly during the 17th and 18th centuries, marked by the contributions of notable scientists such as Robert Boyle (1627-1691) and Antoine Lavoisier (1743-1794), who refined outdated alchemical traditions into a rigorous scientific field.
