In this video we clarify why lattice energy in solids is always a positive value due to the energy needed to separate ions making it an endothermic process. On the flip side hydration energy is always negative as it releases heat when ions dissolve in water making it an exothermic reaction. We use sodium chloride as a real-world example to illustrate these crucial thermodynamic concepts

Mole Count in Elemental Samples (Zn, Ar, Ta, Li)
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
This video outlines the process of calculating the number of moles in various elemental samples. It begins by explaining the relationship between molar mass and atomic weight. Each sample's mass is divided by the respective element's molar mass to find the number of moles. It provides detailed calculations for four elemental samples: zinc (Zn), argon (Ar), tantalum (Ta), and lithium (Li), converting results to scientific notation where necessary. The script demonstrates how to determine the mole
