Boron-loving Debbie shows us one of her favourite molecules - boron tribromide.
Bromination of benzene catalyzed by iron bromide
Bromine if one of the few elements which is liquid at room temperature and it's known for its "stench". This video is one of the 118 clips included in the periodic table of elements themed collection created by Brady Haran and the University of Nottingham in the UK.
We take a look at the famous buckyball, which is a molecule of 60 carbon atoms.
Buffers and the Hendersen-Hasselbalch equation
The video resource "Buffers, the Acid Rain Slayer: Crash Course Chemistry #31" is included in the "Chemistry" course from the resources series of "Crash Course". Crash Course is a educational video series from John and Hank Green.
We are talking calcium carbide, acetylene and old-fashioned car headlights.
Here it is - five grams of caesium in water... But did you know caesium (aka cesium) is also used to define the length of a second? This video is one of the 118 clips included in the periodic table of elements themed collection created by Brady Haran and the University of Nottingham in the UK.
Cahn-Ingold-Prelog System for Naming Enantiomers
Californium is element number 98. This video is one of the 118 clips included in the periodic table of elements themed collection created by Brady Haran and the University of Nottingham in the UK.
Paul Andersen describes the history of calorimetry and explains how it can be used to measure energy changes in a system. The specific heat of water is well established and so as a system releases or absorbs energy from a surrounding water bath it can be measured.
The video resource "Calorimetry: Crash Course Chemistry #19" is included in the "Chemistry" course from the resources series of "Crash Course". Crash Course is a educational video series from John and Hank Green.
Part II of our in-depth look at carbon dioxide, a moleculeoften associated with global warming.
You've probably seen carbon dioxide as a gas and solid but it is much rarer as a liquid.
We take a look at Carbon - one of the most important elements for our lives on Earth. We look at various forms of elemental carbon, from diamonds to exotic graphene and buckyballs. This video is one of the 118 clips included in the periodic table of elements themed collection created by Brady Haran and the University of Nottingham in the UK.
Carboxlic Acid Introduction
Carboxylic Acid Naming
Carvone is a molecule which comes in two "flavours", spearmint and caraway!
In this video Paul Andersen explains how the three types of catalyst classes act to speed up reactions. Acid-base catalysts either add or remove a proton from one of the reactants. Surface catalysts provide active sites where reactants can adsorb and create more successful collision.
Paul Andersen explains how catalysts can speed up a reaction without being consumed in the reaction. Catalysts can lower the activation energy of reaction be stabilizing the transition state. They can also create new reaction pathways with new reaction intermediates that lower the overall activation energy.
