The university grant commission (UGC) has proposed a certain defined new syllabus or curriculum for Indian universities according to NEP. The changes are made in the syllabus or curriculum from time to time by educationalists or committees to bring uniformity to the education system. In this book, all the experiments are included with their principles and according to the syllabus of Indian universities. The flow and constancy have been kept in this book so that students can learn and understand every corner of practical chemistry, especially students in their first year who came from school education.
The book is written in simple, systematic, and easy language so students can grasp and learn the practical view of theories and principles. Each chapter of this book starts with a brief introduction of theories, and principles of experiments, and then experimental procedures are explained. The pre-knowledge of any experiments helps to understand a deep sense of Theories. The flow charts are given within the chapter to memorize some analytical procedures. Writing the experiments in the record book is suggested at end of the chapter. To boost the student’s minds, logical questions are given in separate chapters so students can prepare themselves for viva-voce. The method of solution preparation is also described in this book. The list of required solutions and reagents of the laboratory are given for information. For further knowledge, some physical properties and a list of references and books are mentioned at end of the book.
This book is the result of experience and efforts in collecting, compiling, and editing content which makes it useful to students. In it, an effort has been made to select contents to meet the needs of students or demonstrators who cannot command the unlimited time available, or who lack the facilities of library, books, or references which so often are not conveniently located at centers.
A worthy task had been accomplished by authors to guide and serve the information regarding experiments. The students with this book may find systematic analysis, practical procedures, and a table containing valuable information in a single volume that has been especially computed for this purpose. Every effort has been made to select the most reliable, acceptable, and feasible practical procedures with accuracy.
However, we have effort to present work without any errors but there are opportunities that there may be some
of them are present. We expect from students, and readers, will bring our attention to such an error so that in our subsequent edition, this error may solve and will not repeat.
While the principal aim of the book is for the UG student of chemistry, it should also be of value to many people
especially professional chemists, physicists, mineralogists, biologists, pharmacists, engineers, patent attorneys,
geologists, agriculture chemists, and chemists in the industries are often called upon to solve problems dealing
with the properties of chemical products, solution preparation, analysis of chemicals.
We hope this book will be useful for the UG students of chemistry and that its resting place will be the desk of
every student rather than on the bookshelf of any institute’s library.
