CHEM 101: General Chemistry

Explore the world of oxidizing and reducing agents in chemistry. Gain a clear understanding of what they are and how they function without delving too deep into the subject matter.

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 classification of select molecules based on their polarity. Understand the electron distribution and molecular shapes of Formaldehyde, Methanol, Dichloromethane, and Carbon dioxide. Discover which ones exhibit a net dipole moment and which ones don't.

Unravel the chemistry behind precipitation reactions and the creation of insoluble salts. Learn how aqueous ions interact to form solid precipitates, illustrated with examples like silver nitrate and sodium chloride. Understand their significance in fields from water treatment to qualitative analysis.

Explore oxidation and reduction processes across four chemical reactions differentiating between acid-base and redox activities. Highlighting key substances and their roles in each reaction.

Discover how to calculate the nutritional energy in a bag of chips, and learn the science behind converting excess energy into body fat.
