1. Why Inorganic Chemistry Is Important for JEE
Many students try to avoid Inorganic. Big mistake. It can fetch 10–12 easy marks in JEE Advanced with minimal effort—if you plan it right.
Why it matters:
- Direct questions
- Memory-based, no deep calculations
- Time-saving in the exam
2. Difference Between JEE Main and Advanced Approach
For JEE Main, it’s mostly NCERT-based factual questions.
But for JEE Advanced, expect:
- Conceptual understanding
- Tricky multiple correct answers
- Application-based logic
So, you can’t just mug up—you have to understand trends, exceptions, and logic.
3. Understand the Syllabus and Weightage
Most Important Topics:
- Periodic Table & Periodic Properties
- Chemical Bonding
- Coordination Compounds
- p-block, s-block, d- & f-block elements
- Hydrogen and its compounds
- Qualitative Salt Analysis
Don’t skip the trends and anomalies—they’re favorites in JEE Advanced!
4. NCERT Is Your Best Friend
This can’t be said enough. NCERT is the Bible for Inorganic Chemistry.
Here’s how to study NCERT:
- Read line-by-line
- Highlight exceptions
- Make short notes
- Revise frequently
Many JEE questions are straight lifts from NCERT, especially for p-block and d-block.
5. Topic-Wise Preparation Strategy
Chemical Bonding
Start here. Learn about hybridization, bond order, and molecular orbital theory.
Periodic Table
Understand trends (electronegativity, atomic size, ionization energy). These are basics for every other chapter.
Coordination Compounds
Focus on IUPAC naming, isomerism, and crystal field theory. Practice reactions.
p-block & d-block
Break it into small portions. Learn group-wise properties, reactions, and colors.
6. Memory Hacks for Retaining Facts
Inorganic Chemistry is memory-heavy, but here are some smart hacks:
- Use mnemonics (ex: Hi He Likes Beer But Could Not Offer Full Nine Soft Drinks for noble gases)
- Make flashcards
- Create mind maps
- Use sticky notes on walls
- Record and listen to key points
7. How to Make Inorganic Chemistry Interesting
Imagine elements as people with personalities—some are reactive, some lazy, some colorful!
Use YouTube for 3D visuals, animations of structures, and experiments. Seeing chemical bonding visually changes everything.
8. Commonly Asked Concepts in JEE Advanced
- Color of transition metal ions
- Stability of oxidation states
- Naming and geometry of coordination complexes
- Reactions of p-block elements
- Anomalous behavior of second-period elements
- Hydrogen bonding and its effects
9. Books and Resources to Follow
- NCERT Textbooks (Class 11 & 12) – The foundation
- JD Lee (Concise Inorganic Chemistry) – For understanding concepts
- VK Jaiswal – Practice-based for JEE Advanced
- Previous Year Questions – Absolutely essential
10. Practice Tips and Question Solving Strategy
- Start with objective questions from NCERT
- Move on to JEE Advanced-type questions
- Don’t ignore match the following and matrix match types
- Practice at least 15–20 questions per topic after completing theory
11. Mistakes to Avoid While Studying Inorganic
- Relying only on coaching notes
- Ignoring NCERT diagrams and tables
- Not revising regularly
- Skipping tough topics like coordination chemistry
- Blind memorization without understanding logic
12. Weekly Revision Plan
Monday: Periodic Table + Trends
Tuesday: p-block Elements
Wednesday: Coordination Compounds
Thursday: Chemical Bonding
Friday: Salt Analysis
Saturday: MCQ Practice + Test
Sunday: Revise all flashcards
Consistency is key in Inorganic!
