Hi aspirant,

Inorganic chemistry is that branch of chemistry that deals with synthesis and behavior of inorganic and organometallic compounds except the myriad organic compounds. In simpler words in inorganic chemistry we learn about the chemical compounds that lacks carbon–hydrogen bonds. Some of the common compounds that are examined under inorganic chemistry are:

  • Sodium chloride (NaCl): used as table salt
  • Silicon dioxide (SiO2): used in computer chips and solar cells
  • Sapphire (Al2O3): a well-known gemstone
  • Sulfuric acid (H2SO4): a chemical widely used in the production of fertilizers

The list of chapters covered under inorganic chemistry can be seen below:

  • Classification of Element and Periodicity
  • Hydrogen
  • s- block Elements
  • p- block Elements
  • d- and f- block Elements (Transitions Elements)
  • General Principle and Process of Isolation of Elements
  • Co-ordination Compound
  • Environmental Chemistry

Hope it helps!!
