CHEM 1120: Elementary Organic Bio-Chemistry

Explore the fascinating world of chemistry as we calculate the mass of a sugar crystal with 1.8 x 10¹? molecules of sucrose. Using the concept of a mole and Avogadro's number, discover how to convert molecular numbers to milligrams. Grasp foundational principles in a clear, engaging format.

Explore the process of heat absorption and discover how to calculate the final temperature of a lead fishing weight after absorbing a specific amount of heat.

In this video we clarify why lattice energy in solids is always a positive value due to the energy needed to separate ions making it an endothermic process. On the flip side hydration energy is always negative as it releases heat when ions dissolve in water making it an exothermic reaction. We use sodium chloride as a real-world example to illustrate these crucial thermodynamic concepts

Explore the intricacies of endothermic and exothermic reactions through everyday examples. Delve into the energy dynamics of ice melting and water freezing, while emphasizing the importance of the heat change (?H) in these processes.

In this tutorial, we break down the principle of density, illustrating it as a measure of mass per unit volume. Using an osmium cube as a practical example, we walk viewers through the steps of computing its density, demonstrating the interplay between mass, volume, and particle arrangement.

Explore the intriguing contrast between Pentanol and Hexane's viscosity at 20 degrees Celsius. Uncover how molecular interactions influence a liquid's 'thickness' and discover why similar molecular weights can lead to vastly different substance properties
