15,180 PointsI remember having the same fear when I started out about 3 years ago. I think the real answer is twofold.
1) You don't have to memorize all of them. There are always great resources out there where you can look up and/or ask for help, including https://www.w3schools.com, https://stackoverflow.com and of course the Treehouse Community!
2) After doing this for long enough you'll start remembering them on your own.
Good Luck!

28,407 PointsYou don't memorize them. If you practice a lot you'll have a ton that you know off the top of your head. But you're not expected to memorize every property and value. Especially considering that there are new properties being added all the time.
You're just expected to be able to look them up and understand how to use it afterward.
The best resource out there is the Mozilla Developer Network.
