This video discusses covalent bonding in chemistry. The presenter starts by explaining that atoms or elements want to have a full outer shell of electrons for stability. They then use examples of how non-metals like fluorine and oxygen...

Understand the basics of nuclear power, including how it is generated through the process of fission in uranium atoms. This video highlights the use of neutrons and control rods to create a chain reaction, which ultimately produces...

The video explains the concept of homologous series in organic chemistry and provides detailed information about two important homologous series, alcohols and carboxylic acids. It describes the functional group present in each of these...

Alright, let's be real. Nobody understands molecular orbitals when they first take chemistry. You just pretend you do, and then in your next course you learn them a little better. And then a little better than that. And five years later...

It explains the Kossel-Lewis approach to chemical bonding, octet rule, covalent bond and classify its different types, Lewis dot structures of covalent compounds.

Yes, I know moles are adorable furry creatures. This is a different kind of mole! A numerical mole. And we need to understand them to be able to make predictions about reactions. Let Professor Dave take you through the finer points.

Different forms of the same molecule are known as structural isomers; they have the same molecular formula but are different 'shapes'. In this video we will look at some different structures of butane - so they all have 4 carbons but...

Add fractions with equal denominators using area models.

Atoms are tiny particles that are so small they are not possible to see with the naked eye, and are only barely possible to make out with the most powerful microscopes. Everything that exists in our universe is made up of atoms –...

This video is a lesson on how to represent elements and compounds in terms of the atoms they can take. The video covers the definition of an element, the periodic table, chemical symbols, and formulas. It also explains how compounds are...

Let's rank these carboxylic acids by acidity! Do you know about the various ways these carboxylate anions can be stabilized? Check it out.

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

The video explains how the periodic table is arranged and how this arrangement highlights patterns in the chemical properties of elements. It covers the order of elements based on their atomic number, their placement in groups based on...

This video provides an overview of the basic structure of an atom, including the components of its nucleus and the orbiting electrons. The video goes on to describe the mass, charge, and relative size of these components and how they...

Conduction is the transfer of heat between substances that are in direct contact with each other and it mainly happens in solids. The heat is conducted from atom to atom using the kinetic energy of the particles, in other words by...

We know everything is made up of atoms, but have you ever wondered how an atom is made? If you want to know how to click on the link below where we explain HOW TO BUILD AN ATOM with the help of a simulator.

Learn about the energy levels and electronic configurations of atoms of different elements in this video from the Properties of Matter chapter of the Virtual School GCSE Chemistry.

This lesson looks at the electronic configurations of elements in the periodic tables. Electrons are arranged in energy levels or shells around the nucleus of an atom. As we increase the atomic number and progress through the first...

Learn the basics about radioactive isotopes. The identity and chemical properties of any atom are determined by the number of protons in its nucleus. As atoms get bigger and heavier, the nuclei get bigger and heavier and the protons need...

This video provides a brief overview of the structure of atoms and the three main subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. It explains how these particles are arranged within the atom and their respective charges. Atoms...

When a radioactive atom goes through alpha or beta decay, the atom itself changes into a different element. For example, carbon-14 decays to nitrogen-14 when it emits beta radiation. It’s impossible to predict when an individual atom...

Learn the basics about radioactive isotopes? how they are created? and what chemical reactions are created? Find out more in this video!

In this video learn how to write ionic compound formulae and how to name ionic compounds. This is the first of a two part video series.

Learn the basics about Energy Levels and Electron Configuration. Where do you find energy levels? How do you recognize electron configuration? Find out more in this video!
