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
Ether Structures: Ethyl to Dipentyl Varieties Drawn
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Explore the chemical structures of four distinct ethers: ethyl propyl ether dibutyl ether methyl hexyl ether and dipentyl ether. Understand the role of ether groups which involve an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups.
Tailors' Seam Measurements: Precision and Accuracy Analysis
