Inorganic chemistry is a branch of chemistry that deals with the study of inorganic compounds, which generally exclude carbon-hydrogen bonds.
It focuses on elements and their compounds other than those found in living organisms. Inorganic chemistry examines the properties, structure, and reactivity of minerals, metals, salts, and coordination compounds.
It plays a crucial role in areas such as materials science, catalysis, and industrial processes. In contrast to organic chemistry, which primarily involves carbon-based compounds, inorganic chemistry encompasses a wide range of elements and their diverse compounds.
