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

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
