CHEM 194: Individual Study

This instructional video guides you through the process of determining the number of molecules in a given sample. It illustrates the conversion from grams to moles using the molar mass of the substance and then to molecules using Avogadro's number, providing a practical example with ethane (C?H?) to calculate approximately 6.67 x 10²¹ molecules in a 0.334 g sample.

Explore the relationship between mass, density, and volume using real-life examples, including water, ethanol, chloroform, and balsa wood. Learn the process of calculating mass and uncover which substance has the highest mass based on given conditions.

Understand the fundamental distinctions between pure substances and mixtures. Unpack the definitions and real-world examples of elements, compounds, homogeneous, and heterogeneous mixtures.

Discover how to determine the density of mineral oil and a metal ball bearing using a graduated cylinder. Learn the method of calculating the mass difference and volume to deduce the density and radius of the ball. Watch a detailed physics experiment explained step by step.

Learn how to create Lewis structures for various molecules and assign charges where needed. Understand the molecular connectivity and electron distribution.

Explore the distinct chemical formulas of various acids like phosphoric, hydrobromic, and sulfurous acids. Understand their practical applications, from flavoring agents to sanitization in brewing. Highlighting their unique molecular makeup, learn the critical roles they play.
