The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) instrument aboard NASA's Aqua satellite has been scanning Earth for 20 years and now has a long enough record to help support climate change research. AIRS data on Earth’s atmosphere are improving...

This live-action video program is about the word liquid. The program is designed to reinforce and support a student's comprehension and retention of the word liquid through use of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful,...

Watch the final part of the 'using moles' videos, to complete your understanding of the chemical calculations topic. Avogadro’s number describes what is known as 1 mole, or 12 g of carbon atoms. This is used in chemical calculations. For...

The video discusses the composition of air, specifically the gases nitrogen, oxygen, argon, and carbon dioxide. The presenter explains how these gases react with certain compounds and how they can be made from other substances. The video...

It describes the role of atmosphere in controlling Earth's temperature variations and explains formation of winds.

The pirates are off to find more treasure! Will they make it across the stormy seas? This lesson will survey the physical properties of metals, non-metals and metalloids. Definitions included: physical property, standard ambient...

It defines adsorption, adsorbate and adsorbent. It distinguishes adsorption and absorption. It explains the mechanism and types of adsorption.

What is the difference between heat, thermal energy and temperature? This program explores the differences between each and explains that temperature indicates how hot or cold a substance is, heat is the transfer of thermal energy from...

Virial Equation of State & The Boyle Temperature

Density Of Different States | Matter | Physics | FuseSchool Why is it easy to lift up a big inflated beach ball but much harder to lift a small heavy pebble? It is largely to do with density, the small pebble is more dense and the Big...

Relating Heat Capacities: Cp and Cv

Hydrogen is a gas at room temperature, and is the first element in the periodic table. It has the chemical symbol H, but is usually found as a diatomic molecule of H2. It reacts with oxygen to form water. Hydrogen is a colourless,...

Through animation and video footage students will learn that there are two basic types of catalysts, heterogeneous and homogeneous. Students will come to understand that catalysts have many practical applications and that scientists use...

The video is a tutorial on how to identify four different gases: hydrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and chlorine. The presenter describes the tests that can be used to identify each gas and the results that one would expect. The video...

It explains the concepts of climate and weather.

This live-action video program is about the word air. The program is designed to reinforce and support a student's comprehension and retention of the word air through use of video footage, photographs, diagrams and colorful, animated...

The video is a lecture presentation on global warming, its causes, and its potential effects on ecosystems and biodiversity. The speaker discusses the greenhouse effect, greenhouse gases, and their impact on the Earth's temperature. The...

Description of the conditions required for liquefaction of gases in terms of critical temperature, critical pressure and critical volume.

Learn about the composition and functioning of firecrackers. Black powder inside the cardboard tube ignites when the fuse is lit, causing a chain reaction that leads to an explosion, flash of light, and loud bang. This video also...

Hydraulics | Forces & Motion | Physics | FuseSchool What do water piston, cranes and car brakes have in common? They all have hydraulics to thank… which is the movement of liquids. In this video we’ll look at how hydraulics multiply...

Stars are much bigger and complex than they look from Earth. Learn how they form and how they are classified.

We know about solutions and solubility, but we have typically examined solid or liquid solutes dissolved in a liquid solvent. Did you know that gases can also be dissolved in liquids? Their solubilities depend heavily on temperature, so...

The video explains the concept and application of distillation, a technique used to separate mixtures by physical means based on the components' physical properties such as solubility and boiling points. The video explains the process of...

Do you want to know how to calculate the volume of gases? This chemistry video will show you how to do it with simple real world examples. If you know two of these three, you can work out the third: mass in grams, number of moles and...
