• States of Matter: Gaseous State, Liquid State, Solid State (basic ideas)
• Atomic Structure: Photoelectric effect; Bohr model; quantum mechanical model; orbitals; electronic configuration.
• Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure: Ionic/covalent bonds; VSEPR; hybridisation; molecular orbitals.
• Chemical Thermodynamics & Thermochemistry; Equilibrium (chemical/ionic); Redox reactions; Solutions (colligative properties); Electrochemistry; Chemical Kinetics; Surface Chemistry; Solid State etc.

Inorganic Chemistry

• Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties: Modern periodic law, s-, p-, d-, f-block elements, periodic trends.
• s-Block Elements (Alkali and Alkaline earth metals)
• p-Block Elements (Groups 13-18)
• d- and f-Block Elements (Transition elements, Inner transition elements)
• Coordination Compounds: Werner’s theory, ligands, IUPAC nomenclature, bonding, isomerism.

Organic Chemistry

• Some Basic Principles and Techniques: Purification & characterisation; principles of organic chemistry.

2. JEE Advanced – Chemistry Syllabus

The syllabus for JEE Advanced is broader and deeper, covering more detailed & rigorous topics.
Here are major sections:

• Physical Chemistry: States of Matter (gases & liquids), Thermodynamics, Chemical & Ionic Equilibrium, Electrochemistry, Chemical Kinetics.
• Inorganic Chemistry: Atomic Structure (including molecular orbitals up to certain elements), Bonding, Coordination Chemistry, etc.
• Organic Chemistry: Advanced treatment of hydrocarbons, heterocyclic compounds, biomolecules, etc.

Here is the detailed syllabus for Chemistry for the NEET UG (National Eligibility cum Entrance Test) covering both Class 11 & 12 topics. The syllabus is divided into three broad sections: Physical Chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry and Organic Chemistry.
