Chemistry is the science of matter at the atomic and molecular scale, dealing primarily with collection of atoms, such as molecules, crystals and metals. Chemistry deals with the composition and statistical properties of such structures, as well as their transformation and interaction to become materials encountered in everyday life.
Chemistry is used in a variety of professions and industries, such as, chemical engineering, plastics, pharmaceutical research and development, pharmacist, environmental science (such as, water treatment, air quality control), and forensics, among others.
