CHEM 206: Organic Chemistry Lab 2

Learn the step-by-step process to convert moles into grams using the molecular weight of Epsom salts (MgSO?) and carbon dioxide (CO?). From bathtub to soda bottle understand the science behind the amounts

Explore why fluorine, with its seven valence electrons, doesn't form compounds like FH? or FCl?. Understand the role of VSEPR theory, atomic size, and electronegativity in limiting bond formation. Grasp the interplay of geometric challenges and electron repulsion in compound stability.

Explore the concept of bond energy with the H-Cl bond as a prime example. Delve into the energy dynamics of bond breaking (endothermic positive ?H) versus bond formation (exothermic negative ?H). Understand how the magnitude remains consistent but signs differ based on energy absorption or release.

This instructional video demonstrates the process of calculating the mass percent of various solutions, using the formula "mass of solute divided by mass of solution, all multiplied by 100%." It provides step-by-step calculations for three different solutions, revealing the concentration of each solute in terms of mass percent, offering a practical understanding of quantifying solute proportions in solutions.

Discover the distinct geometries of molecules like N?O, SO?, H?S, and PF?. Unravel the difference between molecular and electron shapes. Master the basics of linear, bent, tetrahedral, and trigonal pyramidal structures.
