Physical Chemistry - Study of atomic, subatomic, and particulate phenomena in chemical systems in terms of laws and concepts of physics. It uses physics to study the motion, energy, force and thermodynamics of reactions.

Analytical Chemistry - Analytical chemistry is the study of the separation, identification, and quantification of the chemical parts of natural and artificial materials. Ex. Forensics and bioanalysis
