CHEM 101: Introduction to Chemistry Lab

In this video we explore the process of calculating the weight percent of barium potassium and chlorine in a mixed sample of barium chloride dihydrate and potassium chloride. Through a step-by-step approach we examine the changes in sample weight after heating to 160°C breaking down the calculations for each elemental content.

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.

Explore the distinct chemical formulas of various acids like phosphoric, hydrobromic, and sulfurous acids. Understand their practical applications, from flavoring agents to sanitization in brewing. Highlighting their unique molecular makeup, learn the critical roles they play.

Discover the simple yet essential method for counting the number of oxygen atoms in different molecular sets, including molecules and ions.

Explore the fascinating process of calculating the mass of silicon in Earth's crust. Learn how to convert Earth's total mass to grams, determine the crust's mass percentage, and find the silicon's mass within the crust. Discover the scale of silicon's presence in our planet's outer layer.
