CH 204: Chemistry Lab

Explore the protonation of amino acids, specifically valine and threonine, when subjected to a pH lower than their isoelectric points, highlighting the structural changes in their carboxyl and amino 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 classification of select molecules based on their polarity. Understand the electron distribution and molecular shapes of Formaldehyde, Methanol, Dichloromethane, and Carbon dioxide. Discover which ones exhibit a net dipole moment and which ones don't.

This video discusses how the electronegativity of attached groups affects the strength of acids. Comparing pairs such as Chloroacetic vs Fluoroacetic and Acetic vs Nitroacetic acids, we highlight which is the stronger acid in each pair and why.

Dive into the chemical reaction between Barium Chloride and Sodium Sulfate. Through step-by-step calculations, discover how to determine the resultant mass of Barium Sulfate. Conclude with a real-world example, highlighting the precise amount formed.

Explore the states of ethane hydrazine and fluoromethane at room temperature by understanding intermolecular forces. Learn about nonpolar molecules dipole-dipole interactions and the powerful influence of hydrogen bonding. Discover why hydrazine stands out as most likely to be a liquid in everyday conditions.
