CHEM 2420: Organic Chemistry II

Explore unique strategies employed by prokaryotes and discover if they possess exclusive mechanisms for handling extreme DNA damage that elude eukaryotes."

The electron transport chain (ETC) is a critical process in cellular respiration and photosynthesis, involving the transfer of electrons and protons through a series of protein complexes and molecules to create an electrochemical gradient, ultimately producing ATP with molecular oxygen as the final electron acceptor.

Explore the environmental impact of sulfur dioxide production, revealing how 26 million tons of this compound conceal 13 million tons of sulfur. It delves into the chemistry of this transformation, converting atomic and molecular masses, providing valuable insights into emissions from activities like burning coal and auto exhaust."

We explore the impact of increasing the concentration of ethylene glycol in an antifreeze mixture, explaining the resulting effect on the freezing point of the solution by examining its interaction with water molecules.

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.

Unpack the intricacies of solid-state chemistry, focusing on the unit cell structure of tausonite. Discover its empirical formula, atomic arrangement, and the unique coordination patterns of titanium and strontium with oxygen atoms.
