This discussion revolves around the classification of chemical bonds as ionic, polar covalent, or covalent based on the electronegativity difference between the atoms involved. The general criteria for this classification are explained: a difference greater than 1.7 indicates an ionic bond, between 0.5 and 1.7 signifies a polar covalent bond, and less than 0.5 designates a covalent bond. It then applies these criteria to four specific examples, including the CC bond in ethane (H?CCH?), the KI bo
Calculating Vapor Pressure & Its Lowering: Urea in Water at 35°C

Explore the intriguing process of determining the vapor pressure of a urea-water solution at 35°C. Using Raoult's law we'll calculate the mole fraction of water and urea leading to the solution's vapor pressure. Learn how the solution's composition affects vapor-pressure lowering
Chromium Oxides: Acidity Comparison in Water
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Compare the acidity of chromium trioxide (CrO?) and chromium (II) oxide (CrO) in water. Chromium trioxide forms strong chromic acid increasing hydronium ions, while chromium (II) oxide has weaker oxidizing properties, resulting in a less acidic solution.
