Chemistry

The study of the basic atomic building-blocks of nature and how they combine to form the solids, liquids, and gases that make up life and everything else with which we're familiar. For a listing of the different elements, see the Periodic Table; for principles see:

• Orbitals
• Kinetics
• Thermochemistry

There isn't a history section here yet, but there is a page on the predecessor of chemistry, Alchemy.
