Analytical chemistry is the area of chemistry that focuses on the composition of matter. Inorganic chemistry involves the study of substances that in general do not contain carbon. Organic chemistry is the study of compounds that contain carbon while physical chemistry is the area of chemistry that deals with the mechanism, the rate, and the energy transfer that occurs when matter undergoes a change.

Answer 2

Answer: Analytical Chemistry

Explanation:

There are five main branches of chemistry:

1) Organic Chemistry

2) Inorganic Chemistry

3) Physical Chemistry

4) Biochemistry

5) Analytical chemistry

Analytical chemistry studies and uses instruments and methods to separate, identify, and quantify matter.

Analytical chemistry consists of classical, wet chemical methods and modern, instrumental methods.

Analytical chemistry can be applied in

forensic science,

bioanalysis,

clinical analysis

environmental analysis

materials analysis.

Analytical chemistry is a field that has much to contribute to microbiology by providing methods for the rapid identification of microorganisms, characterization of microbial products and constituents, and trace detection of microbial chemicals.
