This video breaks down the process of calculating the time and number of photons required to boil water in a microwave. Using given power, wavelength, and water specifics, we determine both energy needs and photon count.
Chromium Oxides: Acidity Comparison in Water
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Compare the acidity of chromium trioxide (CrO?) and chromium (II) oxide (CrO) in water. Chromium trioxide forms strong chromic acid increasing hydronium ions, while chromium (II) oxide has weaker oxidizing properties, resulting in a less acidic solution.
Protons reveal electron count in atoms. Which statement applies?
