In chemistry it is 'just an effect' in physics the reaction making it happen is 'just the cause'.

Chemists must study the fundamentals of physics and thermodynamics means thermal energy in motion. Physics reveals the underlying laws of thermodynamics while chemistry likely applies the principles to particular chemical reactions under study. Chemists use thermodynamics in basic research while chemical engineers apply the research (including thermodynamics) to large scale apparatus that produces end products. Hope that helps a little.

thermodynamics is a branch of physics . in physics it deals with heat and movement . in chemistry it deals with free energy that related to chemical reaction.

well probably in chemistry the greater focus is on the chemical aspects unlike physics

Nothing, really. Chemistry is just a branch of applied physics (although most chemists would argue that statement with various degrees of violence ☺)

hi
In chemistry we see the chenges in chemical process like as in reaction.
but in physics we see the changes in the physical process.

Both work on the principle of diminishing returns
