How many traditional areas of study can chemistry be divided into

There is five main area of study in Chemistry, these are:

Analytical, this focusses on experimental equipment and methods used in chemistry (e. g., NMR, Spectroscopic methods, etc.)

Biochemistry - focuses on the chemistry of compounds and processes in living things (e. g., amino acids, proteins, DNA, cellular respiration, Krebs cycle, etc.)

Organic - focuses on the chemistry on most carbon-based molecules found in living things (e. g., hydrocarbons, alcohols, carbolic acids. Amines, ester, etc.)

Inorganic - (focuses on all elements other than carbon (e. g., fluorine, silicon, xenon, etc.)

Physical - focuses on the basic structure and energetic son atoms and molecules (e. g., subatomic structure, is nice and covalent bonding, thermodynamics, reactions, etc.)
