Practical Manual of Analytical Chemistry

Practical manual of analytical chemistry is written with the idea of presenting a well-documented, student friendly laboratory manual for B.Pharmacy 1st year students. It is being observed during academic experience that students have problems in understanding the basic concepts and the calculation part. Most of the students generally transfer the instructions to practical book without clearing the basic concept. Practical manual has been revised according to the latest syllabus as prescribed by Pharmacy Council of India. Hope this manual will meet the needs and requirements of undergraduate pharmacy students. Contents: LIMIT TEST 1.
