Inorganic Chemistry BSc 1st Year Syllabus 2024

In this post inorganic chemistry BSc 1st year syllabus is given for 2024. 

Use this syllabus as a common syllabus.

This syllabus is being given to support those students who have just been admitted in the first year.

Sometimes universities provide updated syllabi to students late or they are delayed in doing so. 

During that time students are not able to understand which topics they have to study in the first year. 

Therefore, they can use this advanced inorganic chemistry syllabus as a guide and make good notes for themselves on this topic. 

Inorganic chemistry is a major subject in the BSC 1st year chemistry syllabus, which is necessary. 

First of all, write this content of the syllabus of inorganic chemistry on the first page of your notebook, after that continue your studies according to the topic. 

With this, you will not miss a topic. 

If your university has also released an inorganic chemistry BSc 1st year syllabus, then follow the same and prepare for your upcoming exam. 

Generally, many topics are common in the syllabus of all universities, so even if you make notes using this syllabus, they will help you in studying for any one year. 

Now let's start.

In this post, I have covered all the topics of the inorganic chemistry syllabus for BSC 1st year which you may need to prepare properly for the exam.

It can be seen that B.Sc Chemistry syllabus can be different for all universities. 

So before you start preparing for the exam, make sure that these topics are covered in your university.

 Again I tell you that, If your university has released the B.Sc 1st Year Inorganic Chemistry syllabus with amendments, then please follow it.
