The two organs in the digestive system that are involved only in the chemical digestion of food are:

  1. Liver
  2. Pancreas

While the small intestine also plays a role in chemical digestion, it is involved in both mechanical and chemical digestion processes. The mouth, esophagus, large intestine, and stomach also have mechanical aspects associated with digestion.
