Dear Student,

Markovnikov’s rule is an empirical rule which is used to predict regioselectivity of electrophilic addition reaction of alkenes and alkynes. The Markovnikov’s rule states that with the addition of a protic acid HX to an asymmetric alkene, the acid hydrogen (H) gets attached to the carbon with more hydrogen substituents, and the halide (X) group gets attached to the carbon with more alkyl substituents.

Various practical applications of Markovnikov’s rule include Halohydrin formation (in alcohol and water), Oxymercurationand Demercuration and Acid catalysed hydration. These reactions are the laboratory usages of Markovnikov’s rule and are used in a variety of chemical processes.

In short,  Markovnikov rule indicates that hydrogen atoms in an addition reaction are attached to the carbon atom with more hydrogen substitutes

Hi

Your whole chemistry is divided into three parts :-

******* physical chemistry

*******  organic chemistry and

*******  Inorganic Chemistry

For organic chemistry ,  you don't need to directly mug up reaction , you need to first understand them, what you need to do is first go through the reaction and then go through it mechanism as well which will help you to understand how the reaction proceeds and then write two- three times the reaction and its mechanism on your own and then practice questions based on the same and you need to follow this process for every reaction in organic. Solve the ncert thoroughly.

------) Solve at least 80- 100 mcqs per chapter to master them.

-------) You should practice chapteterwise previous year question of your neet examination . Previous year question are the most important as it will let you know types of questions which are asked, also questions on the same concept are repeated very often so it will be of great help for you. There are many neet previous year chapteterwise question books available in the market like by Arihant/ mtg etc.

-------) Go through chapter-wise test and once you're done with the complete syllabus go through mock test series  , it will let you know your weak areas so that you can work on them and improve your score

BEST  books for neet Chemistry

*NCERT Chemistry textbooks for Class XI and XII :- Ncert chemistry is really good for Neet, go through all the solved examples, intext questions and exercise questions.For inorganic chemistry no need to follow any book in addition to NCERT

*Physical Chemistry by OP Tandon :- Best for practising and mastering numericals in physical chemistry

*MS Chauhan (Organic) :- It is a great book to clear all your concepts regarding reactions in organic,their mechanism etc

Thank you

Hello Anshita,

If you are average or weak in Organic Chemistry you should work on developing your basic concepts of Organic Chemistry as well as complete all the NCERT in-text and back questions and should focus more on physical and inorganic chemistry to maintain a proper balance in your marks.

But if you are good in Organic Chemistry you should do more practice from various books or contents so that you can answer all the questions of organic easily and fast.

Hoping you get a very nice marks in your NEET exam.

All the Best

Dear Student,

Yes, with all these it is possible to score 500+. It is just that you have to be clear with all the topics and concepts which has more weightage and have high chances to come in exam. And also solving previous year will help you a lot and 21 year previous year questions are more than enough to solve.

Also for biology, you must be very clear with ncert. Revise it at least 5-6 times. For chemistry, organic portion must be clear with concepts and mechanisms of the reactions as well as named reactions. For inorganic portion, same thing (concepts and mechanisms) as well as periodic table and important elements of it. For physical chemistry, not only memorising formulas are enough, you must be able to solve the numericals also.

Hello candidate,

First of all let me tell you about the most important chapters of organic chemistry for class 12th- hello alkane and haloarene, isolation, aldehydes and carbonyl compounds,substitution and elimination reactions, neighbouring group participation, alcohols and phenols, and carboxylic acids.

The most important chapters for inorganic chemistry are- p block elements, transition elements and d block, radioactive elements and their specific properties, various name reactions, salt analysis tests.

Hope you found it helpful. If you have any further questions feel free to post it here!!

Hello candidate,

The class 12th chemistry syllabus consists of various topics which are quite useful not only for your entrance examinations but also during the preliminary years of your college schedule.

These topics such as substitutions and elimination reactions, neighbouring group participation concept, a few name specific reactions and most importantly you need to to understand the mechanism behind this reacting compounds so that you can get to distinguish between the major and the minor product on an individual basis.

First of all you can refer to the class 12th NCERT Chemistry book and then can use help book such as Himanshu Pandey in order to solve questions and get your concept clear on a larger set of problems.

Hope you found it helpful. If you have any further queries feel free to post it here!!

Hello candidate,

Here are some of the steps which you can follow to learn organic chemistry for EAPCET examination-

1. First of all, you need to go through NCERT class 11th and class 12th textbooks and cover of the chapters such as general organic chemistry, isomerism, IUPAC nomenclature, substitution and elimination reactions, and try to memorize some specific name reactions for amines, ethanes and others.

Then you can refer to some good practice books such as Himanshu Pandey and Balaji publications for practicing more questions.

Hope you found it helpful. If you have any further queries feel free to post it here!!

Dear Aspirant,

There are many important chapters in Organic Chemistry for TS EAMCET 2021 exam. Some of the topics are listed below.

1. General Introduction to Organic Compounds.
2. Fundamental Concepts of Organic Reaction Mechanism.
3. Isomerism.
4. Types of organic reactions.
5. qualitative analysis of various organic compounds.
6. structural representation of organic elements and compounds.
7. Classification of Organic Compounds.
8. concept of nomenclature of organic compounds, etc.

All the best.

Dear student,

Are you clear with basics of Organic Chemistry ?

If you are already good with basics then NCERT is sufficient for JEE Main part and also for JEE Advanced but for JEE Advanced you have to refer to some other tough books for problem solving and higher concepts too.

See, what i have seen generally is that in NCERT, there is not enough explanation if someone is beginning his/her organic chemistry, and there are many things which you might find not relevant to JEE exam and those are for board but if you are done with some basics, you can totally rely on NCERT and  infact it can fetch you good marks.

Having said that you must not ignore the problem solving part and for this you will have to refer some goods books which are very popular in market like Balaji publications Organic Chemistry.

I hope this answer helps you.

All the very best!!
