Covalent bonds are very strong can be used to make a range of substances from the very small 'Simple Molecular Substances' to the large 'Giant Covalent Structures'. Learn how their properties differ and why!

This video covers the difference between the properties of metals and non-metals, and takes a look at transition metals.

By the end of this learning object, the student :will be able to Recognize metals, nonmetals and their different properties.9803

Learn the basics about covalent bonds, when learning about properties of matter. When similar atoms react, like non-metals combining with other non-metals, they share electrons. This is covalent bonding. Non-metals have shells of...

NOTE: animation error at 2:40 - the periodic table is supposed to be twisted clockwise, and not like it is shown in the video. The twisting enables the element Cs to appear on the extreme left and the element F to appear on the right. In...

Upon viewing the Solutions at Work video series, students will be able to do the following: Explain that a solution is a type of mixture made of two or more substances that are evenly distributed. Provide an example of a common solution....

In this video Paul Andersen explains how ionic solids form a lattice between cations and anions. According the Coulomb's Law the lattice energy increases as the ions carry a larger charge and are smaller. Some of the properties of...

We've learned about ionic and covalent bonds, so we understand the interactions that will occur between a metal and a nonmetal, or between two nonmetals. But what about two metals? Metallic bonding! This ends up being sort of like ionic...

This program covers the very important topic of the periodic table. We give an overview of how the periodic table is organized including the periods, groups, noble gases, metals, nonmetals, transition elements, and more. The entire...

Chemistry teacher Subathra Subramaniam explores the halogens, the collection of non-metals found in group seven of the periodic table that display their own qualities and trends. KS3 and KS4 Chemistry.

Learn about the Other Non-Metals group of the Periodic Table with Non-Metals and Other Non-Metals Song Periodic Table by KLT.

Learn the basics about the periodic table, and how the elements are organised within it in this video. The periodic table consists of 7 rows called Periods, going across, and 18 columns, called Groups going down. The elements in the...

While it is true that a crystal of mercury fulminate would explode when slammed to the floor, the crystal depicted in the show Breaking Bad did not accurately represent the appearance of mercury fulminate. Commercial-grade mercury...
