This video discusses the fundamental concept of DNA structure, focusing on the identification of the 3' and 5' ends of a DNA segment, specifically highlighting the sequence AGTCAT and its importance in understanding DNA strand direction for processes like replication and transcription.
Lattice Energy: Always Positive; Hydration Energy: Always Negative
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
In this video we clarify why lattice energy in solids is always a positive value due to the energy needed to separate ions making it an endothermic process. On the flip side hydration energy is always negative as it releases heat when ions dissolve in water making it an exothermic reaction. We use sodium chloride as a real-world example to illustrate these crucial thermodynamic concepts
