Chemistry – The Central Science
Chemistry is the central science that underpins all other sciences. A good chemical knowledge is essential for the study and practice of most sciences.
In the modern world, developments in medicine, biology, biochemistry, micro- biology, physiology, pharmacology, earth sciences, environmental sciences, new materials etc, are more and more based on molecular properties and interactions and hence chemistry is assured of its central role.
