Sal builds on the previous video, which shows students how to calculate the mass composition of a compound from its empirical formula. This problem uses the elements Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Sulfur. The process requires a lot of conversions...

Students of chemistry are shown how to calculate the empirical formula from a molecule's mass composition. Sal uses a variety of elements from the Periodic Table to demonstrate the process and the calculations involved to arrive at the...

Sal introduces chemistry students to the concept of "moles." He points out that a mole is a unit of measurement that helps a student to convert between grams and atomic mass units of any substance. Sal uses the element Aluminum to...

Learn how to calculate the empirical formula of a compound by knowing the mass composition. The video gives two step-by-step examples of how to figure out the empirical formula. [12:58]

A follow-up to a previous module, this module gives a more complicated example of how to compute the empirical formula using mass composition. The video is a step-by-step review of the process of how to use the mass composition to find...
