Questions On General Principles And Processes Of Isolation Of Elements are very important for NEET, JEE as well as AIIMS exam. This is because it has many questions based on isolation of elements like hydrogen, chlorine, bromine and iodine from their respective mixtures. It tests your ability to isolate these elements through tests like vaporization, electrolysis and bulb method.
