- The Periodic table
- Inorganic chemistry, which studies the basic principles that are applied in mineralogy and Materials Science
- Organic chemistry, which underlies biochemistry
- Physical chemistry, which includes the theoretical aspects of computational chemistry and quantum chemistry
- Analytical chemistry, the basis of environmental chemistry
For some basic concepts see:
