CHEM 101: Molecular Chemistry

This video discusses how the electronegativity of attached groups affects the strength of acids. Comparing pairs such as Chloroacetic vs Fluoroacetic and Acetic vs Nitroacetic acids, we highlight which is the stronger acid in each pair and why.

This video explores the processes of rusting in iron and burning a match, addressing whether the observed changes in mass violate the law of conservation of mass, and explains how these processes align with the law.

This instructional video guides you through the process of determining the number of molecules in a given sample. It illustrates the conversion from grams to moles using the molar mass of the substance and then to molecules using Avogadro's number, providing a practical example with ethane (C?H?) to calculate approximately 6.67 x 10²¹ molecules in a 0.334 g sample.

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.

Explore the atomic world and the crucial distinctions between lone pair and bonding pair electrons in this insightful video. Delve into the fundamental aspects of atomic structure, electron orbitals, and their roles in chemical bonding, reactivity, and molecule formation.

Explore the fascinating process of calculating the mass of silicon in Earth's crust. Learn how to convert Earth's total mass to grams, determine the crust's mass percentage, and find the silicon's mass within the crust. Discover the scale of silicon's presence in our planet's outer layer.
