p-Block Elements

An Inorganic Chemistry unit for JEE Main 2027 (typically 3-5% of the paper). It covers groups 13 to 18 — electronic configuration and the general trends in physical and chemical properties down each group, the anomalous behaviour of the first element, the inert pair effect, and the more important compounds (hydrides, oxides, oxyacids, halogens and noble-gas compounds).
