Science and Technology Part 1 is the Physics and Chemistry half of the Std 10 Science paper β and for most students, it’s the section where marks are either reliably earned or unpredictably lost. Numericals, derivations, and equation-based questions reward systematic working and exact recall of formulas. A single misapplied formula or a missed step changes the answer entirely.
The Navneet Science and Technology Part 1 Digest for Std 10 is built to close that gap β with formula summaries, labelled diagrams, worked-out numericals, model answers for HOTS questions, and Board Activity Sheet practice. All eight chapters covered, aligned to the current Maharashtra State Board syllabus.

What Is the Navneet Science 1 Digest for Std 10?
The Navneet Science and Technology Part 1 Digest is a study companion to the Balbharati textbook, covering the Physics and Chemistry portion of the Std 10 Science curriculum. It covers all eight chapters that appear in the SSC board paper β from Gravitation and Periodic Classification of Elements through to Carbon Compounds and Space Missions.
For each chapter, the digest follows a consistent structure: important points and formulae, explanations in accessible language, labelled diagrams, solved examples for numericals, and HOTS model answers β so students can move from concept revision to exam practice in a single resource.
Inside the Digest: What Makes It a Scoring Tool
| Feature | What It Does for Students |
| Chapter Outlines & Important Points | A concise overview at the start of each chapter for a rapid first-pass read |
| Formula Lists | All formulae compiled per chapter β know the tool before attempting the numerical |
| Labelled Diagrams | Accurate, well-labelled diagrams with all required terminology β a direct mark-earner in Physics questions |
| Worked-out Numericals | Step-by-step solutions showing how to set up, work through, and present numerical answers |
| HOTS Model Answers | Answers to Use Your Brain Power!, Think About It!, and Can You Tell? in-text prompts |
| Memory Maps | Visual summaries for conceptually dense chapters β quick recall tool for the final revision sprint |
| Board’s Activity Sheets | Previous Board Activity Sheets included for exam-format practice in real question styles |
Chapter-wise Overview: All 8 Chapters Covered
Science and Technology Part 1 covers 8 chapters β 5 from Physics and 3 from Chemistry β all included in the digest:
| Ch. | Chapter Title | Subject | Key Topics |
| 1 | Gravitation | Physics | Universal law, g, free fall, mass vs weight |
| 2 | Periodic Classification of Elements | Chemistry | Mendeleev, Modern periodic table, periods and groups |
| 3 | Chemical Reactions and Equations | Chemistry | Balancing equations, types of reactions, oxidation-reduction |
| 4 | Effects of Electric Current | Physics | Ohm’s law, resistance, series and parallel circuits, heating effect |
| 5 | Heat | Physics | Temperature, calorimetry, specific heat capacity, latent heat |
| 6 | Refraction of Light | Physics | Snell’s law, lenses, lens formula, magnification, power |
| 7 | Lenses | Physics | Ray diagrams, convex and concave lenses, eye defects |
| 8 | Metallurgy | Chemistry | Extraction of metals, refining, alloys, corrosion |
Numericals and Derivations: The High-Value Questions
Physics chapters in Part 1 β particularly Gravitation, Effects of Electric Current, Heat, and Refraction of Light β are numerical-heavy. These are not guess-and-check questions. The board expects students to show:
| β’Given: The data listed from the question |
| β’To find: What the question is asking for |
| β’Formula: The correct formula written out before substitution |
| β’Substitution: Values substituted with units shown |
| β’Answer: Final answer with correct unit |
The digest’s worked numericals follow exactly this format β which means students who practise from the digest are learning presentation alongside calculation, not just the arithmetic. That presentation is where partial marks are earned when the final answer is wrong.
Aligned With the Latest Board Activity Sheet Pattern
The SSC Board Science and Technology paper uses an Activity Sheet format that tests students across MCQs, diagram questions, short descriptive answers, and application-based (HOTS) questions. The Navneet digest is updated each year to reflect this exact structure, including actual previous Board Activity Sheets so students can practice in the real exam format before exam day.

Final Thoughts
Physics and Chemistry are among the most formula-dependent chapters in the SSC exam β but also among the most predictable in their question structure. A student who knows the formulas, understands how to present a numerical, and has practised the Board Activity Sheet format is very well positioned to score strongly.
