CHEM 1141: General Chemistry Lab I

An in-depth analysis of the precision and accuracy in seam measurements by three apprentice tailors: X, Y, and Z, as they measure a pair of trousers. Understand how their measurements compare to the true length of 32.0 inches.

Learn the method to determine the count of SO? molecules, sulfur, and oxygen atoms from a given amount of sulfur dioxide (SO?). Understand the application of Avogadro's number in translating moles to molecules. Grasp key concepts of atomic structure and counting with hands-on examples.

This discussion delves into the use of acetone as a solvent for removing water from laboratory glassware, exploring the science behind its effectiveness and the role of hydrogen bonding in facilitating rapid evaporation.

Explore the chemical structures of four distinct ethers: ethyl propyl ether dibutyl ether methyl hexyl ether and dipentyl ether. Understand the role of ether groups which involve an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups.

In this tutorial, we break down the principle of density, illustrating it as a measure of mass per unit volume. Using an osmium cube as a practical example, we walk viewers through the steps of computing its density, demonstrating the interplay between mass, volume, and particle arrangement.

Explore the differences between physical and chemical properties in substances. Learn some fundamentals of chemistry and understand how substances interact and change.
