would these books be good if i want to do some home chemistry and make some things that i can consume, or are these books more geared towards obscure problems for a nerd competition?

they don't exist.
Also, Dirac would be rolling in his grave if he were to know faggots like you, who are less interested in research problems than babbling about trivial problems (that appear hard to you cause you're too prideful to learn new shit), are using a picture of him to represent your faggotry.

Yes, I did IPhO once, scored about 40th percentile, and narrowly missed my country's IMO selection but did a fair amount of prep for it

Is it necessary to learn Lagrange to solve David morin book fully ? Or some some chapters can be done without Lagrange ?
