1. Atomic structure: General study of the modern concept of the structure of atom. Rutherford atom model, Bohr’s atom model; quantum numbers, Pauli’s exclusion principle, electronic configurations of elements; elementary ideas about the wave nature of electrons; atomic orbitals.
2.
Periodic classification: General survey of the classification of elements;
periodic nature as related to the atomic structure. modern periodic table: its
constition; s-block, p-block, d-block & f-block elements, change of
properties of elements in periods & groups.
3. Sizes of atoms and ions: Atomic and ionic
radii-ionization potential, electron affinity, electronegativity and their
influences on the properties of molecules.
4. Bonding: Elementary ideas about the
electronic theory of bonding, different bonds; hybridization of orbital, bond
length, bond strength ad bond angles, shapes of molecules.

elements with reference to the elements of the first transition series (3d
elements).
6. Acids and bases: Modern views about acids and
bases, theories and theirs applications and limitations. strength of acids.

following groups of elements in the
periodic table with reference to
properties and uses of elements and their important compounds with special
emphasis to comparative chemistry.
