List of American Chemical Society national awards explained

See main article: American Chemical Society.

The List of American Chemical Society national awards attempts to include national awards, medals and prized offered by the American Chemical Society (ACS). The ACS national awards program began in 1922 with the establishment of the Priestley Medal, the highest award offered by the ACS. As of 2016, the ACS offers a 64 national awards, medals and prizes based on scientific and professional contributions in chemistry.^[1] A category of ACS awards is available on Wikipedia.The complete list of current awards is:
