Chemistry & Physics (English)

Chemistry is the science of matter at or near the atomic scale. Physics on the other hand is the study of the natural world. It deals with the fundamental particles of which the universe is made, and the interactions between those particles, the objects composed of them, including nuclei, atoms, molecules, etc., and energy. Both topics in the collection are suitable for Environment as well as Science and Technology programs.
