Practice Subject Tests in

Chemistry

The Subject Tests in Chemistry are planned to test the principles and concepts

drawn from the factual material found largely in inorganic chemistry and, to a
much lesser extent, in organic chemistry. Only a few questions are asked
concerning industrial or analytical chemistry.
A detailed description of every aspect of the test is given in the introduction
of this book. Read it carefully. Study the types of questions asked on the test.
Carefully read the instructions given for each type of question at the beginning of
each section.
You will be provided with a Periodic Table to use during the test. All
necessary information regarding atomic numbers and atomic masses is given on
the chart. Before you attempt any of the practice tests, read the information in the
Introduction and the material that precedes the Diagnostic Test in the front of this
book. When you understand the information there, are aware of the types of
questions and their respective directions, and know how the test will be scored,
you are ready to take Practice Test 1.
Remember that you have 1 hour and that you may not use a calculator. Use
the Periodic Table provided for the Diagnostic Test in the front of this book, and
record your answers in the appropriate spaces on the answer sheet. After you
have taken each test, follow the instructions for diagnosing your strengths and
weaknesses and for how to improve in those areas.
