CHEM 14A: General Chemistry for Life Scientists I

Delve into the complex world of enzymes and explore the implications of their reversible inhibition, shedding light on whether it's advantageous or detrimental to biological processes."

This video tackles the classification of boiling water as either a physical or chemical change, examining the provided options. We conclude that boiling is a physical change, as the water's chemical composition remains the same during the transition from liquid to gas.

In this exploration, we delve into the fundamental units of various substances, whether they are single atoms, molecules, or formula units. We examine ionic compounds like Rb?O and Fe(NO?)?, characterized by formula units as their basic components, and covalent compounds like N? and N?F?, where molecules are the fundamental units.

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.
