CHEM 710: Uhc General Chemistry 1

This instructional video demonstrates the process of calculating the mass percent of various solutions, using the formula "mass of solute divided by mass of solution, all multiplied by 100%." It provides step-by-step calculations for three different solutions, revealing the concentration of each solute in terms of mass percent, offering a practical understanding of quantifying solute proportions in solutions.

Explore why fluorine, with its seven valence electrons, doesn't form compounds like FH? or FCl?. Understand the role of VSEPR theory, atomic size, and electronegativity in limiting bond formation. Grasp the interplay of geometric challenges and electron repulsion in compound stability.

Discover how to determine the final temperature of a water sample after heat absorption. Utilizing the concept of specific heat capacity and the formula q = mc?T, we calculate the change in temperature and reveal its new state. Experience the transformation from an initial tepid state to a drastically altered thermal condition.

Discover how to calculate specific rotations of samples using a polarimeter in this informative chemistry tutorial. Explore optical activity and learn step-by-step calculations for two real-world examples. Enhance your understanding of specific rotation and its application in chemical analysis.

This video delves into the fundamental concept of conjugate bases in the context of the Brønsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases, explaining how when acids donate protons, they transform into their respective conjugate bases. This understanding is exemplified through the specific reactions of various compounds, illustrating how each Brønsted acid, upon proton donation, gives rise to its corresponding conjugate base.

This video delves into the fascinating world of energy storage in animals and plants, offering insights into why fats are the primary energy storage compound in animals (except muscles) and why plants opt for alternative strategies instead of using fats and oils.
