CHEM 11225: General Chemistry 1

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.

The video offers an insightful look into the orthorhombic unit cell, a unique crystal lattice structure. By exploring nickel sulfate's unit cell and its specific dimensions, we determine both the number of formula units and the density of this crystalline structure.

Unravel the Lewis structures of BrF?, ClF?, and IF? and their relationship with the octet rule. Examine how fluorine bonds with bromine, chlorine, and iodine. Identify molecules that deviate from the standard octet distribution.

Unraveling Molecular Structures: Explore the composition of compounds with molecular formulas CH4O, CH3Cl, C2H6, CH5N, C2F6, C2H5Br, and C3H8. Learn about their unique structures and properties.

Discover the process of naming acids based on their anions and oxidation states. This video breaks down the correct naming of HNO2(aq) by distinguishing its anion and determining its place in the world of mineral acids.

This video explains the disproportionation reaction of disulfur decafluoride at 150°C. It teaches you to write a balanced equation for this reaction and give the oxidation state of S in each compound.
