Introduction to the Exam:
The National Testing Agency (NTA) conducts the JEE Main entrance examination every year. Students willing to pursue technical courses can seek admission to various colleges based on their scores in the JEE exam. Students can get admission to 31 NITs, 27 GFTIs, 23 IITs, and 18 other CFTIs in India.

JEE Main Chemistry Questions
The Chemistry subject holds great significance in the JEE Main exam and is a scoring subject. The JEE Main Chemistry questions are concept based and most of them are directly asked from the NCERT books. Few chemistry JEE Mains questions are also numerical-based. Therefore, candidates should have an in-depth understanding of reactions, formulae and other concepts. Before solving JEE Main chemistry questions, students should be familiar with JEE Main syllabus, JEE Main eligibility criteria and JEE Main exam pattern. This will help each candidate prepare a study timetable and attain high ranks.

JEE Main Chemistry Syllabus
The chemistry paper in JEE Mains is divided into three subsections:

Section A: Physical Chemistry
Section B: Inorganic Chemistry
Section C: Organic Chemistry
All three sections carry equal weightage. JEE Main chemistry questions aim to test the students’ calibre and theoretical and practical knowledge. In 2020, the NTA introduced numerical value type questions in JEE Main that carry 20% of the entire paper. Out of 10 JEE Main chemistry questions of numerical value type, students can attempt any 5. The rest, 80%, are multiple-choice questions (MCQ).
