NOTE - Students are expected to perform six experiments from the given list. Two experiments out of the six will be set in the examination paper.

            The duration of the Practical Examination shall be 5 hours.

            The distribution of marks in the practical examination will be as follows:

  1. Two experiments:  30 marks each.

2.     Distribution of marks will be as follows :
