Is it necessary to study "structure of atom" for neet?Is it basic of chemistry?

atomic structure is very important chapter in chemistry since it gives you the basic building blocks of the different elements and is a key to understanding the essence of the periodic table as well as how the different electrons are filled in the different shells and subshells of the different elements right from the group 1 elements like sodium and potassium to the group 2 elements like calcium and strontium to the heavy metals like lead zinc and cadmium to the halogens in the seven group including chlorine chlorine and bromine

the atomic weight and solubility as well as other associated properties of these metals and metalloids along with the trends which follow across the groups and periods of the periodic table are mustard only when you understand the concept of atomic structure well

Usually questions on numericals of Heisenberg principle or in what order the electrons get filled in and what could be the atomic formulae of different elements in their outer shells or 10 ultimate shells with a few exceptions keep recurring in the Neet examination and as it is important to know the basics of your physical chemistry in the form of atomic structure since it is one of the most conceptual and difficult to grasp chapters in your syllabus of physical chemistry under the purview of NEET UG chemistry portion

I would recommend you study the portion from a good book Lego P Agarwal op tandon and enhance your conscious by practicing as many execute as possible from Dinesh aur Pradeep books to help yourself in the 90 marks of chemistry which carry an important part after the priorities been given to biology science physics is the last subject to be considered in event of ties although is as much important as the other two

All the best

Hello Diya. Thank you for choosing Careers360.

Yes, structure of atom is a very important for NEET as well as chemistry. It is the second chapter in the NCERT Book of class 11 and introduces many basic concepts such as valancy and Quantum numbers. You should not leave this chapter in the exam.
