- 1. Inorganic chemistry is the branch of chemistry that deals with inorganic compounds, which are substances that do not contain carbon-hydrogen (C-H) bonds. It focuses on the properties and behavior of inorganic compounds, including metals, minerals, and organometallic compounds. Inorganic chemistry plays a crucial role in various fields such as materials science, environmental science, medicine, and industry. It involves the study of the structure, properties, reactions, and uses of inorganic compounds, providing insights into the fundamental aspects of chemical bonding and reactivity in non-carbon-based systems.
