Khanna’s Objective Type Questions & Answers in Environmental Chemistry
Objective Type Questions & Answers in Environmental Chemistry by O.P. Gupta is comprehensive academic resource designed to provide a structured and evaluative approach to the study of environmental sciences. Published by Khanna book Publishing, this 2025 edition serves as a vital tool for students and professionals navigating the complexities of atmospheric, aquatic, and terrestrial chemistry. The book is meticulously divided into three primary sections: a rigorous collection of objective-type questions with answers, detailed short-answers questions that explore fundamental mechanisms, and an extensive glossary of technical terms to ensure conceptual clarity.
The core theme revolves around the chemical phenomena occurring in the environment and the impact of human activities on natural cycles. Its primary purpose is to aid readers in mastering the syllabus of various competitive and professional examinations. The target audience includes undergraduate and postgraduate engineering and science students, as well as candidates preparing for associate membership examinations like AMIE, AMIM, and AMIIChE. By blending theoretical depth with a question-and-answer format, the boof offers immense practical value for exam preparation and professional reference, maintaining a tone that is both intellectually stimulating and accessible.
