CHM 122: Introduction to Organic Chemistry

Learn how to create Lewis structures for various molecules and assign charges where needed. Understand the molecular connectivity and electron distribution.

Explore the process of determining ionizable hydrogen atoms in malonic acid using its molecular formula C3H4O4 and a neutralization reaction with Sodium hydroxide. Through methodical calculations involving the given mass of malonic acid and the required volume of Sodium hydroxide for neutralization we uncover that each molecule of malonic acid contains two ionizable H atoms.

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

Learn how to compute the freezing point of water at various solution concentrations using the freezing point depression formula. Uncover the relationship between concentration and the lowered freezing points for four distinct solutions. Equip yourself with essential knowledge on the effects of solute concentration on water's freezing behavior.

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

Discover the process of naming acids based on their anions and oxidation states. This video breaks down the correct naming of HNO2(aq) by distinguishing its anion and determining its place in the world of mineral acids.
