Verma’s book is exceptionally good for Titrimetric Analysis . If you are preparing for a competitive exam (IIT JAM, GATE, or NET), master the volumetric analysis section in this book before moving to instrumental methods elsewhere. Have you used R.M. Verma’s Analytical Chemistry? What’s your favorite chapter—the redox titrations or the statistical analysis of data? Let us know in the comments below!
R.M. Verma remains the for students who find Skoog too intimidating. It is concise, affordable (the physical copy is usually very cheap compared to international editions), and written in a no-nonsense style. The Verdict Buy the physical book. It usually costs less than a pizza. The act of marking pages, solving the numericals in the margins, and tabbing the titration curves is irreplaceable.
If you are an undergraduate or postgraduate student in Chemistry, Biochemistry, or Environmental Science, you have likely heard the name R.M. Verma whispered in library corridors. His textbook, Analytical Chemistry , has been a staple in Indian universities (and beyond) for decades.
