This article provides various reference tables, which are useful for performing chemical experiments and solving related problems.

A chemistry reference table gives valuable information, which is arranged in a systematic manner. They are very useful for comparing and finding values, and concluding the results of various chemical reactions. Such tables make your task easy, as you don’t want to cram up your mind with the standard values. Given below are various reference tables useful for chemistry students.

**Abbreviations**

D = density  
m = mass  
ppm = parts per million  
V = volume  
K = Kelvin  
P = pressure  
Pa = Pascal  
R = gas constant  
T = temperature  
M = molarity  
n = number of moles  
q = quantity of heat energy  
CPD = compound  
CF = chemical formula  
MP= melting point  
BP = boiling point  
Dec = decompose
