Learn BIOCHEMISTRY without stressing out your brain CELLS Trying to understand the chemical processes of living organisms but having trouble metabolizing the complex concepts? Here's your lifeline! Biochemistry Demystified helps synthesize your understanding of this important topic. You'll start with a review of basic chemical concepts and a look at cell structures and cell division. Next, you'll study carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, nucleic acids, nucleotides, and enzymes. Glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, and the control of chemical processes round out the coverage. Hundreds of examples and illustrations make it easy to understand the material, and end-of-chapter questions and a final exam help reinforce learning. This fast and easy guide offers: Numerous figures to illustrate key concepts Details on DNA and RNA Coverage of hormones and neurotransmitters A chapter on analytical techniques and bioinformatics A time-saving approach to performing better on an exam or at work Simple enough for a beginner, but challenging enough for an advanced student, Biochemistry Demystified is your key to mastering this vital life sciences subject.

Chemistry, a branch of science concerned with the properties, structures and composition of substances and their reactions with one another. Inorganic Chemistry studies the preparation, properties and reactions of all chemical elements and their compounds, except those of carbon. Organic Chemistry studies the reactions of carbon compounds, which are 100 times more numerous than nonorganic ones. It also studies an immense variety of molecules, including those of industrial compounds such as plastics, rubber, dyes, drugs and solvents. Physical Chemistry deals with the Physical properties of substances, such as their boiling and melting points. The present book is included for the students of higher secondary second year. For convenience sake this text book of chemistry is published in two volumes. This text book is written after following the revised syllabus, keeping in view the expectations of the National Council of Educational Research & Training (NCERT). This book will provide an “inverted pyramid” model to gain knowledge in all branches of chemistry. The topics such as Atomic Structure - II, Periodic Classification - II, Solid State - II, Thermodynamics - II, Chemical equilibrium - II, Chemical Kinetics - II, Electrochemistry - I and II are designed in such a way that students should have a continuous access to these topics. Hence, the knowledge gained in higher secondary first year will help the students to have a continuous access to these topics. The knowledge gained in +1 will help the students to achieve excellence in the path of quest for chemical knowledge. Many problems are introduced in inorganic, physical and organic chemistry to enhance the quantitative aptitude of students. The quantitative aptitude will enable the students to understand the concepts well.

Inorganic Chemistry provides essential information in the major areas of inorganic chemistry. The author emphasizes fundamental principles?including molecular structure, acid-base chemistry, coordination chemistry, ligand field theory, and solid state chemistry ? and presents topics in a clear, concise manner. Concise coverage maximizes student understanding and minimizes the inclusion of details students are unlikely to use. The discussion of elements begins with survey chapters focused on the main groups, while later chapters cover the elements in greater detail. Each chapter opens with narrative introductions and includes figures, tables, and end-of-chapter problem sets. This text is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate-level students enrolled in the inorganic chemistry course. The text may also be suitable for biochemistry, medicinal chemistry, and other professionals who wish to learn more about this subject are.
