Maybe @The alchemist can provide his input. But during Siyad Barre Era, their was a faculty in the national university dedicated to Chemical Engineering. I am sure he knew the importance of this field to Somalia. From what I gathered it's not even a hard subject as I expected. But please correct me if I am wrong somewhere in my logic as it's not my field. But from my basic research.
1. Atoms, everything in the observable world whether it's physical such as matter, liquid, gases consists of atoms.
2. Atoms themselves combine together to create molecules which then create elements
3. Atoms, Molecules, Elements can be singluar or multiples. That's why the numbering scheme tells you how to arrange them in your formula. Co2 is essentially carbon, oxygen 2 elements. It can reach up 16 combinations.
4. Heat/Cold/Pressure are fundamental conditions that is used to experiment to create something
5. 114 elements organized in an element table. Metals mostly but also non metals and gases
6. 99% of Earth and everything within it basically consists of carbon, hydrogen, oxygen. CHO3
7. Their a potential of millions of compounds that can be created by re-arranging the Atoms-Molecules order and this can be done in a lab or 'synthetically'.
8. Some important laws also guide this field like conservation of mass, quantity/size rule, etc. Theirs others but minor laws but important to know.
I haven't further reviewed this but from the pattern emerging I would assume animals including us will have our own chemical family. Plants/Organics their own. Soils their own. Geology and Rocks their own family.
This isn't hard science as I thought. It's nothing comparable to the sciences around cosmos, quantum, gravity, space-time, electromagnetic, energy.
