CHEM 1023: Principles of Chemistry (CH 1021)

Dive into the Kinetic Molecular Theory of Matter understanding how atoms and molecules possess kinetic energy which we measure as temperature. Explore the five core assumptions including the constant random motion of gas particles and the relation between kinetic energy and temperature. Demystify the concepts of particle collisions intermolecular interactions and the universal behavior of gases at given temperatures

The scenario involves an archaeologist analyzing iron in an old building containing nickel-63, which has a known half-life of 92 years. With only 0.78% of the original nickel-63 remaining, the goal is to estimate the year when this discovery was made. We delve into the calculations and principles of first-order decay reactions.

Master metric unit conversions with step-by-step examples, including cm to meters, g to kilograms, cm to millimeters, and mL to liters.

Discover the difference between strong and weak electrolytes by understanding their ionization in water. Using nitrous acid and nitric acid as examples, this video provides chemical equations that visually distinguish the ionization behavior of these electrolytes.

Unpack the intricacies of solid-state chemistry, focusing on the unit cell structure of tausonite. Discover its empirical formula, atomic arrangement, and the unique coordination patterns of titanium and strontium with oxygen atoms.

This discussion explores the nature of hydrogen peroxide as a compound composed of hydrogen and oxygen atoms and categorizes it as either a homoatomic or heteroatomic molecule.
