Description of Op Tandon Inorganic Chemistry 1st Edition (PDF)

Inorganic Chemistry by O.P. Tandan is a great book for study Elementary chemistry include JEE & IIT solved paper available in PDF download. "Inorganic Chemistry for Competitions" has primarily, been written with the aim of meeting the needs and interests of students seeking admission to professional courses especially in engineering and medical. This is an age of tough competition where only the best survive. No doubt, the syllabus for various entrance tests is nearly the same as for intermediate or 10+2 examinations, yet even good students fail to qualify as the standard of these tests is comparatively high and seats in engineering and medical colleges are limited.

The present trend in competitive examinations is the stress on an objective rather than a subjective treatment of the subject matter. Critical scrutiny of the question papers of previous years of various entrance tests reveals that a variety of questions such as very short answer type, short answer type, fill in the blanks, true and false, match the column, multiple-choice, numerical type are usually asked. In order to answer these questions, the students must be well equipped with a thorough knowledge of the subject and its application. With these objectives in mind, I have tried to present inorganic chemistry for competitions covering the whole of the syllabus of nearly all the competitions. The complete subject matter has been arranged in a systematic manner.

Every topic has been dealt with precisely and to the point in a simple and understandable language. Things have been explained with proper reasoning wherever possible. A good number of illustrations and solved problems based on structure and properties including numerical problems have been provided to understand the theoretical aspect. Due emphasis has been given on group discussions of various groups of the periodic table. Flow-sheet diagrams have been provided to simplify the extraction of various metals, preparation of a number of compounds and their properties. At the end of each chapter, a good number of questions of various types have been given for self-assessment. It is my belief that students will be duly rewarded if they attempt these questions honestly and sincerely after learning a particular topic. Necessary hints have been given wherever it is felt necessary.

Human efforts are never perfect. In spite of my best efforts, I am aware of the possible errors and omissions that have escaped my notice. I shall, therefore, be extremely thankful to the learned teachers who will extend their cooperation by sending their valuable criticism, suggestions, and observations for further improvement of the book. I consider it my duty to pay thanks to the authors and publishers of the books which I have consulted during the preparation of the manuscript. My sincere thanks are due to Shri Manoj Kumar Bathla, Proprietor, MIs G.R. Bathla & Sons, Shri Shiv Charan Sohal (Artist) for the whole-hearted cooperation in the preparation and publication of Op Tandon Inorganic Chemistry book. I am also thankful to Dr. A.K. Virmani and Dr. A.S. Singh for their encouragement, cooperation, and guidance in the preparation of the manuscript of Op Tandon Inorganic Chemistry book. Finally, I thank my wife and children for the help they have extended in proof-reading.
