CHEM 201: Organic Chemistry I

Learn the art of precise chemical calculations in this video. Discover how Chromium(III) oxide reacts with hydrogen sulfide to form chromium(III) sulfide and water, all while unraveling the necessary steps to determine the exact quantities involved.

This video provides ground-state electron configurations for various elements, including germanium, iron, zinc, nickel, tungsten, and thallium, based on their atomic numbers.

We explore synthesis and decomposition reactions, showcasing examples like the formation of water and its breakdown into simpler substances. We also clarify that while many of these reactions are redox reactions involving electron transfer, some synthesis and decomposition reactions may not necessarily be redox reactions, as seen in specific examples.

Explore the power of chemical names and symbols in deciphering copper compound formation at each step of the copper cycle, with an illustrative example.

This explanation delves into the phenomenon where the reaction rate decreases over time due to the decrease in reactant concentration, resulting in fewer successful collisions and reactions, without revealing specific examples or findings.

Unravel electron configurations for transition metals including zinc copper zirconium and iron. Understand how atomic number influences electron arrangement based on the Pauli exclusion principle Hund's rule and the Aufbau principle. Decode the configurations of each metal with clarity.
