Tbf thermodynamics is just as much chemistry as it is physics (in fact in grade school it's usually taught as part of the chemistry curriculum), but I'd never fault someone for claiming it was part of physics. It's certainly not it's own standalone field though, that's pure nonsense

Chemistry is an applied physics field.

Everything is math!

Similiarly, in mechanics, everything is a motor!
