CHEM 221: Organic Chemistry

The scenario involves an archaeologist analyzing iron in an old building containing nickel-63, which has a known half-life of 92 years. With only 0.78% of the original nickel-63 remaining, the goal is to estimate the year when this discovery was made. We delve into the calculations and principles of first-order decay reactions.

Join us in this video as we dive into the intricacies of calculating the net ATP yield from oleic acid (18:1 ??). We'll provide a step-by-step guide and offer helpful hints to ensure an accurate calculation, including a critical step that bypasses acyl-CoA dehydrogenase.

Discover the process to determine the quantity of ammonia (NH?) required to produce a specific amount of ammonium sulfate ((NH?)?SO?). Through a step-by-step explanation, learn the application of the balanced chemical equation and molar mass conversions. Transform theoretical chemistry into practical knowledge with this insightful guide.

In this video, we delve into the concept of percent composition by mass, exemplified through the compound chloroform (CHCl?), which was once employed as an inhalation anesthetic despite its associated toxicity. By calculating the percent composition for each element within the compound, we gain valuable insights into its composition and its potential effects on health and properties.

This video guides viewers through the process of calculating the volume occupied by Hydrochloric acid gas or HCl at standard temperature and pressure. Using the molar mass of HCl and its properties as an ideal gas the tutorial comprehensively explains each step to determine the volume from a given mass at STP. A must-watch for understanding gas volume conversions in chemistry
