Definition of Chemistry: A comprehensive overview of what chemistry is and its role as the central science.

Definition of Chemistry

Chemistry, often regarded as the "central science," plays a vital role in connecting the physical sciences with life sciences and applied sciences. At its core, chemistry is the study of matter, its properties, composition, and transformations. It seeks to understand what substances are made of and how they interact with one another. As we delve into this fascinating field, we can define chemistry through several perspectives:

Experiment: Supersaturation

Objective

To demonstrate and understand the concept of supersaturation by creating a supersaturated solution and initiating crystallization.

Hypothesis

If a solution is heated, it can dissolve more solute than it can at room temperature, leading to a supersaturated state. When the solution cools or a seed crystal is introduced, rapid crystallization will occur.
