This document provides an introduction to chemistry and its branches. It defines chemistry as the study of the composition, structure, properties, and reactions of matter. It then lists and describes the main branches of chemistry, including physical chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, biochemistry, industrial chemistry, nuclear chemistry, environmental chemistry, and analytical chemistry. Examples are provided for some of the branches.
