Speed of Light Explained: Earth, Billions of Km & the Concept of Light
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
Discover the incredible speed of light as it zips 7.5 times around Earth in just a second! Marvel at its daily and yearly travels, equating to billions and trillions of kilometers. Dive deeper into the concept of a 'light year' and its significance in astronomical measurements.
Lattice Energy: Always Positive; Hydration Energy: Always Negative
Want To Learn More? To watch the entire video and ALL of the videos in the series:
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
