What does notation mean in chemistry?
You think probable to chemical symbols of elements, chemical formulas, etc.
What are the basic particle from which all elements are made?
An atom is the basic particle of an element. Atoms are considered to be the foundation of chemistry.
How are chemical symbols of elements formed?
Chemical symbols are derived from Latin words for the chemicals.
Who is the scientist who first proposed the use of chemical symbols?
No single scientist has devised the symbols of the elements. An organization called the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) has determined the symbols of the elements on the Periodic Table.
How are elements repesented on the periodic table?
They are represented by their 1 or 2 character symbols, as agreed by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC).
How do coumpounds get there names?
A compound's name is generally based on the elements invoved. The process of naming them is taught in basic chemistry.
What can you do to prepare for being a chemist?
Isaac Asimov has written lots of informative books about chemistry, which I recommend. In addition, become familiar with the elements and their symbols. You should know that gold is Au, mercury is Hg, Potassium is K, and so forth (as you can see, the symbols are not always derived from the English name!). Familiarize yourself with the periodic table of the elements. That is the foundation of chemistry.
How would you feel if the elements in the periodic table have no definite symbols?
Without definite chemical symbols it is impossible to work in chemistry. Also, without symbols, definitions, rules, standardized terminology the human knowledge in all the fields is incoherent or impossible.
Where did the symbol for francium is Fr?

Traité Élémentaire de Chimie, Elements of Chemistry, in a New Systematic Order: Containing All the Modern Discoveries, The Development of Chemistry, 1789-1914: Elements of chemistry
What are the main topics in chemistry for JEE?
