Everything you see, touch, and smell is a result of a chemical reaction. Chemistry is the "Central Science" because it bridges the gap between physics and biology. On this page, I, Jayanta Majumder, dive into the unseen world of atoms and the incredible transformations that turn simple matter into the complex universe we inhabit.

01 The States of Matter

Matter isn't just solid, liquid, or gas. In the modern scientific era, we explore "Plasma" and "Bose-Einstein Condensates." However, the transformation between these states—like ice melting into water or water boiling into steam—is where the real energy exchange happens. These are called physical changes, where the identity of the molecule remains the same, but its energy state shifts.

02 Chemical Transformations

A chemical transformation occurs when substances combine or break apart to form entirely new matter. Think of the rust on a car or the way your body breaks down sugar for energy. These are not just changes in shape; they are changes in the very "soul" of the atom as electrons are shared or stolen through covalent and ionic bonding.

03 The Law of Conservation

One of the most beautiful rules in chemistry is that matter can neither be created nor destroyed. It only changes form. When you burn a piece of wood, the mass doesn't disappear; it simply transforms into ash, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. This balance is the foundation of every chemical equation I analyze here at JAY Spark.

"Chemistry is the study of change. It is the music of the spheres played on the strings of atoms."
