CHEM 117: General Chemistry II

This video discusses the fundamental concept of DNA structure, focusing on the identification of the 3' and 5' ends of a DNA segment, specifically highlighting the sequence AGTCAT and its importance in understanding DNA strand direction for processes like replication and transcription.

Discover the art of writing balanced, complete ionic, and net ionic equations for various chemical reactions. Learn the nuances that differentiate between these equations and watch them applied to diverse chemical reactants.

Explore the environmental impact of sulfur dioxide production, revealing how 26 million tons of this compound conceal 13 million tons of sulfur. It delves into the chemistry of this transformation, converting atomic and molecular masses, providing valuable insights into emissions from activities like burning coal and auto exhaust."

We explore Lewis structures, which depict atom bonding and lone electron pairs. We create Lewis structures for potassium, barium, aluminum, and bromine by using group numbers in the periodic table to determine their valence electrons.

Explore the concept of bond energy with the H-Cl bond as a prime example. Delve into the energy dynamics of bond breaking (endothermic positive ?H) versus bond formation (exothermic negative ?H). Understand how the magnitude remains consistent but signs differ based on energy absorption or release.
