What is the scientific study of matter called?

Chemistry
Physics
Metaphysics
Astronomy

The correct answer is: Chemistry

Chemistry is the scientific study of matter and its properties, composition, and reactions. While physics studies the fundamental laws of the universe, it does not solely focus on matter. Metaphysics deals with philosophical questions about the nature of reality, rather than the physical world. Astronomy is the study of celestial objects and phenomena in space, and although it may involve studying matter, it is not the main focus. Therefore, the most accurate answer is A, chemistry.
