1. What is science?
Science is a body of knowledge about the natural world based on facts discovered through
experimentation and observation. It's also a branch of science that studies the natural world.
2. What is Chemistry?
Chemistry is the study of matter, which is defined as everything with mass and occupies space,
as well as the changes that matter may go through when exposed to various settings and
situations. Chemistry aims to understand not only the properties of matter, such as the mass or
composition of a chemical element, but also how and why matter changes — whether
something transforms after combining with another substance, freezes after being left in a
freezer for two weeks, or changes colors after being exposed to too much sunlight.
