define "everything" first of all

physics defines and describes phenomena in great detail but explains very little (depending on your criteria of "explanation"). for example to define emotions as merely chemical is to propose a causal relationship between particles and feelings but nothing else, no "explanation" of feelings. like the word "pain" can be used in place of a scream, but both the word and the scream explain the sensation "pain" to the same degree.
