Physical Science is the systematic exploration of nature followed by the careful analysis of observations. Scientists utilize a scientific method and conduct observations under controlled conditions. Modern Chemistry studies the composition and behavior of matter, along with its applications. It has its roots in ancient civilizations that searched for ways to transform substances. Chemical engineering is the design of processes that minimize environmental impact. Branches of Chemistry include inorganic, organic, and analytical chemistry. The connection between chemistry and success is exemplified by Charles Hall and Paul Héroult's discovery of the Hall-Héroult process for obtaining pure aluminum, which dramatically reduced its cost.

Chemistry Connection: A Student Success • In 1886, pure aluminum metal cost over $100,000 per pound. • Charles Hall and Paul Héroult both independently discovered a method for obtaining pure aluminum from aluminum ore. • The industrial process for obtaining aluminum metal is referred to as the Hall-Héroult process. • Today, pure aluminum costs less than $1per pound.
