CHEM 540: Chemistry of Materials

This video explores the processes of rusting in iron and burning a match, addressing whether the observed changes in mass violate the law of conservation of mass, and explains how these processes align with the law.

Determine the molarity of a NaOH solution through titration with sulfurous acid. Starting with the ideal gas equation we derive the concentration of a 0.200L SO?-derived H?SO? solution. Concluding with a molarity of 1.64 M for NaOH using calculated values.

Explore the groundbreaking moment in 1828 when Wöhler synthesized urea, the first organic compound. Join us in this video as we trace the profound impact of this achievement on the field of biochemistry and its significance in unraveling the mysteries of life's complex chemistry.

Explore the chemical combination of nitrogen and fluorine to produce nitrogen trifluoride. Learn how to determine the limiting reactant and calculate the theoretical yield using stoichiometry principles.

Explore the calculations for mole fractions, partial pressures, and total pressure in a 22.4 dm³ vessel with H? and N? at 273.15 K.
