Everything in our surroundings (living or nonliving) has a few chemical and physical properties. Moreover, our body also changes. The activities we perform such as cooking, eating, breathing, etc are explained in one of our study courses. So, we can imagine how crucial this course is in our lives. Here is a quote that explains the same:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201c<\/span>I feel that the course chemistry is a perfect example of mystery, which is unveiled by curious brains each day. The beauty of chemistry is that its reactions (either amazing or destructive) depend on our reactions.\u201d – Anonymous<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Chemistry- an Enigma!<\/h3>\n

Molecules make up everything in our environment.<\/a> They make up the bed we’re sitting on, as well as the laptop or smartphone we’re using. Even if we are chewing gum while reading from our gadget, all these are part of chemistry. A female perfume manufacturer, Tapputi-Belatekallim is the first chemist since 1200 BC. She was able to manufacture perfume by understanding chemical reactions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since the beginning of time, chemistry has been performing tasks (withering of Gondwana, shifting of tectonic plates, formation of planets, birth of animals, and humans).<\/span><\/p>\n

It demonstrates how chemistry isn’t just limited to the planet Earth but has wings all over the universe. The composition of anything is an example of it. Everyone is a chemist in their own right, as they undertake basic chemical reactions (breathing, heartbeat, digestion), whether consciously or unconsciously.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cooks are the chemist of the kitchen as they are experts in performing numerous chemical reactions (fast cooking, slow cooking, multiple reaction cooking, preparing mocktails, etcetera). So, a cook cannot complain about not understanding chemistry<\/span>.<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n

Since we know the involvement of chemistry, we can comprehend how crucial chemistry is in our lives. Learning chemistry is not just a requirement, it is also a fun approach to gain a better understanding of ourselves and our surroundings. As a result, we might infer that chemistry is not difficult. However, simply looking at the equations causes them to be confusing. Let’s make chemistry a pal by following a few helpful tricks. Learn the reason behind every reaction and be familiar with a periodic table to understand each element.<\/p>\n

Curiously Enough:<\/h3>\n

Though Dmitri Mendeleev is credited with creating the periodic table<\/a>, many other scientists have attempted to design periodic tables in various methods. Moreover, there were 63 elements in the first accepted periodic table.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Tips before attempting the 12th Chemistry Board Exam<\/h3>\n

1. Knowing the syllabus thoroughly<\/h3>\n

It is vital to recognize what to study when learning any subject, especially chemistry. Once we are aware of the syllabus, we can plan our study schedule more effectively. Moreover, distinguish between the crucial and minor topics. It will help in preparing well and will not waste our time. So, knowing the syllabus is a must before starting the preparation.<\/span><\/p>\n

2) Plan your schedule<\/h3>\n

Do not keep everything for studying one day before the exam. When we prepare in a hurry, we tend to mug up the concepts, rather than understand them logically. Study each day. Dedicate some hours to chemistry, depending upon our level. Plan when you will study organic chemistry and when to prepare for the other chemistry topics.<\/span><\/p>\n

3) Comprehend the Topics<\/h3>\n

Never mug up chemistry topics. Understand practically and then learn. One should never cram the organic part of the chemistry. The first reason is these will baffle the student and the second reason is students will be writing wrong reactions and getting their marks deducted.<\/span><\/p>\n

Students can learn chemical reactions by performing them carefully in a lab. Make sure you consider the state of the element (solid, liquid, gas) when writing the chemical reaction. Understand the numerical with the formulas. Moreover, students can relate theoretical topics with real-life to develop better learning.<\/span><\/p>\n

4) Practice Sample Papers<\/h3>\n

Before taking the exams, students in class 12th should practice the chemistry sample papers. One can find the sample papers online according to their board. For example, if the aspirant is from the ICSE board, he must check chemistry sample papers on his board’s official site.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sample papers assist in pattern acknowledgment and marking scheme. It means students learn which type of questions are asked in the chemistry board exam along with the weightage of each question. Furthermore, depending on the grading structure, students might learn how many words to put in a response.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sample paper of chemistry is vital as students will get a gist about how chemistry’s organic and inorganic parts are bifurcated in the exam. Accordingly, one can prepare well. Previous year’s papers also help in self-assessment because students can examine their preparation by solving these papers. If students can solve these papers, their confidence increases, and anxiety decreases.<\/span><\/p>\n

The designated board prepares sample papers for class 12th chemistry. For example, the ICSE board’s sample paper is designed by the ICSE board.<\/p>\n

5) Practice Previous Year Papers<\/h3>\n

While preparing for the class 12th chemistry exam, one should go through previously asked questions. It will help in noticing which topics of chemistry are significant to score great marks. Moreover, we learn how to solve reactions or numerical problems in distinct ways. Students also get sufficient material to practise the chemistry topics.<\/span><\/p>\n

Curiously Enough:<\/b><\/p>\n

An American businessman, Henry Fischel, is the man behind the invention of exams. He invented exams so that students can be evaluated based on their academic knowledge.<\/p>\n

\u00a06) Consider extra help<\/h3>\n

If students feel that they lag in chemistry and are not able to understand well at school, they can opt for extra chemistry classes to clear their doubts. Students can get personal attention at tuitions. Moreover, coaching classes help in the revision of inorganic and organic chemistry. Chemistry is a subject that demands revision.<\/span><\/p>\n

These tutoring institutes administer tests. The tests follow the school’s curriculum. Before enrolling in the institute, students should consider one thing. That is, they must inform the institutes about their chemistry topics.<\/span><\/p>\n

Curiously Enough:<\/b><\/p>\n

The term “coaching” is well-known among people, and it was coined at Oxford University in the nineteenth century. It comes from the term “coach” (tutor).<\/p>\n

7) Prepare from Coursebooks<\/h3>\n

One should not burden themselves with reading and studying multiple-author books. Class 12th students must study, according to their class syllabus. Studying unnecessary topics can perplex the students, and they feel mentally exhausted. Moreover, if chemistry is a minor subject, studying extra is vague.<\/span><\/p>\n

If a student considers chemistry as a major subject and is brilliant at chemistry, he can study from multiple books to enhance this knowledge. However, he should avoid studying out of the coursebook at least one month before to avoid confusion.<\/span><\/p>\n

Curiously Enough:<\/b><\/p>\n

Though the right to senior secondary education came in the year 1945, senior secondary education was first introduced in India in the mid-1800s.<\/p>\n

8) Avoid Distractions<\/h3>\n

Whenever students start studying chemistry, they should be dedicated to their subject. Students must not be distracted by social applications or favourite programs. Otherwise, they end up wasting time. Moreover, this type of learning is temporary, and students tend to forget the concepts. It might lead to exam stress and anxiety.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sit at a proper place with proper lights. Keep all the distracting gadgets away. Use smartphones only for searching chemistry topics. Do not sit at a place where one starts to feel lazy. One more thing should be taken care of. Students should not munch while studying as munching is a distraction. If a student does not feel at ease in a group setting, he can focus alone and concentrate. While group studying, do not be distracted by gossip.<\/span><\/p>\n
