New XII-Chemistry Text Book (Sindh Text Book Board) is Coming Soon.
"This book consists of 13 chapters, from Chapter 13 to Chapter 25. Chapter 13 and 14 represent inorganic chemistry. The main topic of Chapter 13 is the group trend of representative elements, including atomic radii, ionization energy, electronegativity, electrical conductivity, melting point/boiling point, and oxidation states. Only two industries are included in Chapter 13, namely caustic soda and sulfuric acid. Reactions of S-block and P-block elements are also covered in this chapter. Chapter 14 describes the properties of outer transition elements, such as variable oxidation states, color formation, complex formation, paramagnetic behavior, and alloy formation. Additionally, it discusses complex naming using the IUPAC method and metallurgy of copper, among other topics. Organic chemistry is introduced from Chapter 15. Chapter 16 provides a comprehensive explanation of the IUPAC naming of all organic compounds. Chapter 17 focuses on hydrocarbons, which includes the chemistry of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and benzene. It also covers structural and stereo isomerism. Chapter 18 describes alkyl halides and amines, with important topics such as SNI and SN2 reactions, beta elimination reactions, Grignard reagent, and its reactions. Chapter 19 deals with the chemistry of alcohols, phenols, and ethers. Chapter 20 delves into the reactions of aldehydes and ketones, while Chapter 21 covers carboxylic acids and their derivatives. Chapter 22 is about biochemistry, encompassing carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and minerals. In Chapter 23, you will study industrial chemistry, including pesticides, adhesives, cosmetics, and synthetic fibers (Nylon and PVC). Chapter 24 focuses on environmental chemistry, exploring the chemistry of the troposphere and stratosphere. Important topics covered in this chapter include acid rain, depletion of ozone, industrial smog, and water treatments. Lastly, Chapter 25 is dedicated to spectroscopy, where you will study UV/visible spectroscopy, NMR spectroscopy, and Mass spectroscopy."
