Chemistry (from Greek χημε?α khemeia[1] meaning "alchemy") is the science of matter at the atomic to molecular scale, dealing primarily with collections of atoms, such as molecules, crystals, and metals.
Chemistry deals with the composition and statistical properties of such structures, as well as their transformations and interactions to become materials encountered in everyday life.
Chemistry also deals with understanding the properties and interactions of individual atoms with the purpose of applying that knowledge at the macroscopic level.
The RoyalSociety of Chemistry is the leading organisation in Europe for advancing the chemical sciences.
A limited number of overseas travel grants are awarded to members of the Division under the age of 30 who are engaged in research projects related to analytical chemistry.
The RSC Research Fund exists to assist members in their research by the provision of grants of up to £1000, for example for the purchase of chemicals, equipment or for running expenses of chemical education research.
