This book is an approach for compilation and making a handbook in very simple and easy language to very commonly used terms in chemistry for higher secondary, under-graduate and post graduate students.
Many times we are familiar with some terms but at certain times like competitive examinations, interviews, and so on it just need a glimpse to all these so as to revise it. This book provides a highlight to almost all basic terms used in chemistry from higher secondary education to post graduation. It tries to cover all basic definitions and basic laws important for interviews, college exams, competitive exams and other such events.
This has been designed in simple language and colorful way so as to help students during end-time revision and reducing their quality time to be wasted on searching such basic terms from various sources.
