Sites about chemical engineering should go to Science/Technology/Chemical_Engineering. |
Chemistry is typically defined as the science that studies the composition, structure, and transformation of matter.It has been called "the central science" because of the way it is related with all the other sciences. Chemistry bridges the gap between physics and biology; it is a "helper science" in almost many technical disciplines; and it occupies a prominent position in industry between the extraction of raw materials and the manufacture of finished products. Of course, it is chemists who call it this way; other scientists may have different perspectives.
Chemistry is also distinguished from some other sciences because it creates its own object of study: chemists can imagine and create new compounds that have never existed in nature, so they are not constrained to what already exists, but only to what can be done.

There are separate categories for many different branches of science.
Please submit your site to the most appropriate category. Submitting to an incorrect category may delay review of your site. Please submit only websites that have English language content to this category and its subcategories. If your site is in a language other than English, please submit it to the appropriate category of World. |
This category is for sites about university departments doing scientific research and providing scientific educational programs in chemistry.
| Please try to submit your site to the most appropriate sub-category. |
Science/Chemistry/Analytical contains links to those sites which may deal with the facet of chemistry used in the commercial world of chemical analysis. Agricultural, environmental, materials, QA/QC, and forensic links would be some of the most noted topics falling into this category. Pure and applied methods development for analytical processes are also included.
Catalysts are materials that promote or accelerate a chemical reaction, by associating with one or more of the reacting chemicals, and thereby lowering the energy barrier for reaction to occur. The association can be by adsorption or chemisorption (as is the case for solid, heterogeneous catalysts) or by complexation or coordination (as is the case for homogeneous catalysts, including enzymes). Catalysts can repeatedly promote the same reaction, without themselves being converted. The science of catalysis involves itself with developing new or improved catalysts, and with understanding the fundamental processes involved with catalytic reactions.
These are sites that provide information, or data on chemical safety. This will include lab safety, as well as chemical plant and refinery safety sites. Safety equipment and devices will also be included, or at least links to them.Sites more appropriate for high school or younger students will be found in

Sites here specialize in structure-activity relationships with particular regard for their biological properties, and application in medicine. more information (editors only) |
The terms Medicinal Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Chemistry are used in different countries to cover the interdisciplinary theories, methods and techniques of drug design. This involves the identification, synthesis and development of new chemical structures, or formulations of existing drugs, to improve therapeutic efficacy, bioavailability, mitigate side-effects, or overcome intellectual property issues.
|
Sites describing software packages should be submitted to Science: Chemistry: Software. |
Computational chemistry involves the use of computers to investigate the structure and properties of atoms, molecules, and molecular aggregates. There is great overlap and some confusion between the disciplines commonly called "computational chemistry", "molecular modeling", and "theoretical chemistry". To simplify, all of these are grouped under the computational chemistry ODP category, except for some sites that go to Science/Chemistry/Physical.

Please submit only meetings with a regional, national or international scope and which cover a broad area of Chemistry. |
Conferences, courses, meetings, seminars, workshops and other events in Chemistry.
A section for indices of Chemistry resources, most of the sites here should contain indices pointing to at least 500 other chemistry resources
| Please submit only sites in English. Sites in other languages should be submitted to the appropriate World category. |
Sites that teach or inform about chemistry and chemistry education, from grade school to college.Sites which seek to sell something should have significant, free chemistry education content to contribute.
Electrochemistry is the study of the exchange of electrons between an ion/molecule and an electrode, or another ion/molecule.Application areas include batteries, plating or electrodeposition, corrosion, analytical electrochemistry, as well as the study of any chemical reaction involving oxidation or reduction.

Please submit sites promoting consultancy, testing, scientific equipment or supplies, to the appropriate subcategory of Products and Services. more information (editors only) |
Environmental chemistry is the study of chemicals, which by their absence or presence in critical amounts, influence life on land and in water. Environmental chemistry includes the chemicals that influence the levels of critical chemicals such as oxygen and carbon dioxide. Hence environmental chemistry is concerned with contamination of the atmosphere and water resulting from industrial pollution. Environmental chemistry includes methods of detection, quantifying the presence, and measuring differences from the natural state, as well as their effects.
This category and its sub-categories includes sites about promoting and aiding this study.
|
Please submit sites that are related to inorganic chemistry. |
The study of all elements and compounds of elements except for carbon.
