CHEM 1570: Introduction to Organic and Biological Chemistry

This discussion explores the importance of the size of protein molecules, highlighting their three-dimensional structures, diverse functions, and the role of large size in enabling structural motifs, functional regions, and stability without revealing specific examples or findings.

Master metric unit conversions with step-by-step examples, including cm to meters, g to kilograms, cm to millimeters, and mL to liters.

Explore the concept of bond energy with the H-Cl bond as a prime example. Delve into the energy dynamics of bond breaking (endothermic positive ?H) versus bond formation (exothermic negative ?H). Understand how the magnitude remains consistent but signs differ based on energy absorption or release.

Unravel the Lewis structures of BrF?, ClF?, and IF? and their relationship with the octet rule. Examine how fluorine bonds with bromine, chlorine, and iodine. Identify molecules that deviate from the standard octet distribution.

"Explore how altering concentrations and volume impacts the rate of an SN2 reaction between 1-bromopropane and sodium hydroxide. Learn the rate equation that describes this reaction and see real examples of how rate changes with concentration and volume adjustments

Learn the process of determining the density of a rectangular metal bar using its measurements. Understand how volume and mass play a crucial role in the calculation, and the importance of representing results with the correct number of significant figures
