An overview of alkyne synthesis via double dehydrohalogenation.

This video explains the importance of measuring the pH of water and how it can affect the plants and animals living in it. The hosts demonstrate two methods of measuring pH and show the impact of pollution on the water's acidity.

The video discusses acids and alkalis, the pH scale, and indicators. It explains what acids and alkalis are in terms of the ions they form when dissolved in water, and how their concentrations can be measured using the pH scale. The...

Learn the basics about what makes something acidic as part of the acids and bases topic..

Learn the basics about strong and weak acids, and how they differ. Strong acids are often used in School Science labs for experimentation but they have important uses in industry and the everyday world. Sulphuric acid for example is...

We know about acids and bases, and we know about acid-base reactions, so what is a neutralization reaction?

This kitchen science video lesson is all about discolouration and what makes it happen. Students will love this engaging and interactive video as they learn about science they can do at home.

It explains the importance of soil to living beings. It talks about soil pollution, its causes, consequences and prevention.

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 is a video lesson on metals and nonmetals. The speaker explains the differences between metals and nonmetals, their characteristics, how to identify them on the periodic table, and how to identify them through their reactions with...

Learn the basics about Acid Rain. What causes acid rain? Find out more in this video!

For the first time, NSF-funded researchers at the University of California Santa Barbara have collected long-term evidence that links rising levels of carbon and changes in ocean chemistry in Antarctic waters to the inability of...

Learn the basics about reducing acid rain or its effects. How can we reducing acid rain and its effects? Find out more in this video!

In this week’s episode we explore origami-inspired devices, examine family technology rules, and finally we examine how changing ocean chemistry may threaten the Antarctic food chain.
