Introduction to Gas Chromatography

Advanced chemistry scholars read about gas chromatography as a means of separating mixtures into their components. Then they try the technique on fingernail polish remover. Detailed instructions are provided via a lab sheet for your...

Written as a textbook reading guide, this worksheet covers foundational concepts for any general chemistry class. From scientific method, measurement, and temperature, to more chemistry-specific topics like chemical and physical changes,...

Every region has a renewable resource that can be used to make hydrogen. But, what is hydrogen and why can it be used as an energy source? Find out with a presentation that answers these questions and then discusses where hydrogen is...

The focus of this chemistry video is kinetics, which is a study of exactly what happens to compounds when they react together. Specifically, kinetics is a study of the rate of chemical reactions, and what forces affect that rate. Sal...

If you know how much carbon dioxide you produce in one breath, can you figure out how much you produce in one month? Socratica helps solve multi-step unit conversion problems. The video walks through how to set up these challenges and...

Pressure and volume remain inversely proportional for all gases. Socratica presents a video about this relationship as part of their chemistry playlist. It explains Boyle's Law and the associated formulas before demonstrating the...

Can you crush a soda can using only the air around you? Use an engaging video to teach about the relationship between pressure, volume, moles, and temperature of a given gas, all done with the Ideal Gas Law.  

While some branches of science refer to it as dimensional analysis and others as unit conversions, both terms mean the same thing. Socratica presents a video explaining the basics of this topic discussing inches-to-feet conversion as...

Gay-Lussac first published the law relating the volume and temperature of gas, but he kindly credited Charles in what is now known as Charles's Law. Part of Socratica's chemistry playlist, the video explains Charles's Law. It also works...

Begin a full lesson on climate change by demonstrating how carbon dioxide gas contributes to increased temperatures. Be aware that pressure inside the antacid-containing bottle in Activity 2 may cause the lid to fly off; keep viewers at...
