3. Chemistry is (mostly) an experimental science and has important practical applications. It is encountered in all aspects and areas of modern technology. Furthermore, being a positive science, it develops one’s ability to reason, experiment and conclude; thus opening up possibilities for further advancement. This aspect of chemistry contributes to development of mankind. Finally it lends its ideas and facts to other fields of science, thus globalising knowledge as we know today. This is why it is usually called “The Central Science”.
