Khan Academy: Nomenclature and Properties of Acyl Halides and Acid Anhydrides

Fossil fuels are non-renewable resources and have become crucial to the livelihood of countless individuals. Young chemists investigate an alternative method of generating energy by performing a series of activities that lead to the...

It's not often that you come across a clever laboratory activity that is both imaginative and comprehensive! Using M&M's and Reese's peanut butter candies to represent two different clam species, young biologists test for "relative...

These atoms don't believe in sharing. Introduce intrepid chemists to ionic boding using an engaging JFR Science video. Topics include ionic compounds, how the bonds form, and properties of ionic salts.

After giving a situation with several reactants, Sal can review the behavior of those ions according to their stability. Amines and acyl chloride are used first. Next, he looks at the mechanism at each point to move from a less stable...
