Why this book?


We have often heard many students saying with a exasperation "Oh! Chemistry needs a lots of mugging & cramming". Mostly the students who shy away from chemistry are anxious about not being able to remember all required things.
Contrary to common beliefs even Chemistry is a conceptual subject which requires deep understanding like Physics and Maths, although it is essential for a beginner to remember a handful. Once you master a few initial concepts you may be able to understand the rest. Yet, keeping in mind the limited availability of time, it is often better to remember these rather than to derive them.
Generally, students have difficulty in remembering periodic table, group tests, colour of compounds etc. which is a impossible task in absence of memory aids.
The various Jingles, Rhymes and Phrases in this book is a representation of my efforts to generate interest in this so called "Dry Subject" and make Chemistry much easier to remember. Some of the material in this book is vastly popular among the students.Some have been inspired by other refrences and remaining paintakingly created by me in ordder to be able to meet the readers requirments.
