CHEM 10996: General Chemistry 1 Chm 2045-001

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.

Uncover the distinct behaviors of hydrochloric acid and acetic acid in water. Learn about the complete ionization of strong acids and the partial ionization of weak ones, emphasizing the differentiation in proton donation.

Explore the world of oxidizing and reducing agents in chemistry. Gain a clear understanding of what they are and how they function without delving too deep into the subject matter.

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.

In this analysis, we determine the composition of a solution prepared by dissolving 12.15g of nickel(II) nitrate in 175mL of water (density 1.00 g/mL). The mass percent of nickel(II) nitrate is found to be approximately 6.50%, and the mole fraction of nickel(II) ions in the solution is calculated as 0.00672.

Explore the polar nature of Chloromethane and the nonpolar characteristics of Methane. Understand the impact of electronegativity differences and bond types. Deciphering molecular polarity through the lens of tetrahedral structures.
