AS/A-level Chemistry Revision

Chemistry is known as the science of matter. Matter is the substance of which all the physical objects are made and Chemistry explores its properties. Chemistry also examines the interaction between various substances which is known as the chemical reaction. Chemistry has close links to many other specialized fields of knowledge, such as Biology and Physics, and a knowledge of Chemistry is required for numerous science-based careers.
