CBSE Class 11 Chemistry Practical Syllabus 2021-2022 Exam

 

CBSE Class 11 Chemistry Practical Syllabus is as important as the theory syllabus. This is because the practical examination is of 30 Marks which are quite important if you want to score full marks in the Chemistry subject. The practical syllabus for Class 11 Chemistry includes the list of practicals that you need to prepare for your final examination along with the marking scheme for the practicals. You must understand what factors contribute to achieving full marks in the practical examination. Scoring full marks in the practical examination is quite easier than the theoretical exam given that you have studied all the topics carefully. 

 

Class 11 Chemistry practical syllabus is based on the topics that you will study in the theory part. Chemistry syllabus for Class 11 includes 13 units - Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry, Structure of Atom, Classification of Elements and Periodicity in Properties, Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure, States of, Matter: Gases and Liquids, Chemical Thermodynamics, Equilibrium, Redox Reactions, Hydrogen, s ‐Block Elements, Some p ‐Block Elements, Organic Chemistry: Some baBasicrinciples and Techniques and Hydrocarbons. The list of practicals is based on the theory topics that you have studied in these units so that you can get familiar with the real-life aspects of Chemistry. 

 

askIITians provides the complete syllabus for Class 11 Chemistry practical for the academic year 2021-22. We have listed all the practicals as given by the CBSE so that you can prepare them accordingly for your exam. askIITians also provides online coaching for CBSE Class 11 Chemistry where you can learn about all chemistry topics from our expert tutors.

Here are some of the practical experiments included in Class 11 Chemistry practicals: 

  • Characterization and Purification of Chemical Substances

 

  • Determination of melting point of an organic compound.
  • Determination of boiling point of an organic compound.
  • Crystallization of impure samples of any one of the following: Alum, Copper Sulphate, Benzoic Acid.

 

  • Experiments based on pH

 

  • Determination of pH of some solutions obtained from fruit juices, solution of known and varied concentrations of acids, bases and salts using pH paper or universal indicator.
  • Comparing the pH of solutions of strong and weak acids of the same concentration.
  • Study the pH change in the titration of a strong base using a universal indicator.

 

  • Quantitative estimation 

 

  • Using a mechanical balance/electronic balance.
  • Preparation of standard solution of Oxalic acid.
  • Determination of strength of a given solution of Sodium hydroxide by titrating it against a standard solution of Oxalic acid.
  • Preparation of standard solution of Sodium carbonate.
  • Determination of strength of a given solution of hydrochloric acid by titrating it against standard Sodium Carbonate solution.

 

  • Chemical Equilibrium

 

  • Study the shift in equilibrium between ferric ions and thiocyanate ions by increasing/decreasing the concentration of either of the ions.
  • b) Study the shift in equilibrium between [Co(H2O)6]2+ and chloride ions by changing the concentration of either of the ions

 

Students also have to work on a project based on qualitative analysis. CBSE provides a list of topics from which you can choose a project topic. These include: 

  • Checking the bacterial contamination in drinking water by testing sulphide ion
  • Study of the methods of purification of water
  • Testing the hardness, presence of Iron, Fluoride, Chloride, etc., depending upon the regional variation in drinking water and study of causes of the presence of these ions above the permissible limit (if any)
  • Investigation of the foaming capacity of different washing soaps and the effect of addition of Sodium carbonate on it
  • Study the acidity of different samples of tea leaves.
  • Determination of the rate of evaporation of different liquids
  • Study the effect of acids and bases on the tensile strength of fibres
  • Study of acidity of fruit and vegetable juices

 

If you want you can choose another investigatory project topic by consulting your teacher. It should be worth 10 periods of work. 

CBSE Class 11 Chemistry Syllabus 2021-22 FAQs

 

#1 How do I prepare for chemistry practicals?

  • Practice all the concepts included in Chemistry practicals thoroughly.
  • Be good with diagrams and chemical equations so that you make no mistake. 
  • Be prepared for the viva. Do not get confused while answering the questions. Just speak what you know. 
  • If you don’t know the answer in the viva, do not lose confidence. Simply say that you have no idea about it or if you know anything about the topic, you can state that. 
  • Make sure your practical file is complete and signed by your teacher. 
  • Be thoroughly prepared with your project. 

 

#2 Are Class 11 Chemistry practicals easy? 

Yes, Class 11 Chemistry practicals are quite scoring. If you have practised them before, you can easily score full marks in the practical examination. Moreover, if you get good marks in practicals you can improve your overall score in Chemistry.
