This program makes the Modern Periodic Table come alive to students. Numerous real-life examples of elements are exemplified in the table. Animations and graphics illustrate concepts not easily achieved through other instructional...

Ionic Bond, Covalent Bond, James Bond, so many bonds! What dictates which kind of bond will form? Electronegativity values, of course. Let's go through each type and what they're all about.

In this part 2, learn the basics about the atom, particularly about isotopes, whilst learning about properties of matter. Learn the basics about the atom, whilst learning about properties of matter. Atoms are the small bits that make up...

Learn the basics about the atom, whilst learning about properties of matter. Atoms are the small bits that make up all the matter in the world around us. There are around one hundred different sorts of atom, from the lightest, hydrogen...

Ever wanted to know how the modern periodic table was formed? Find out here in our Properties of Matter video detailing the history of the periodic table. Featuring Johann Wolfgang Doberiner, John Alexander Reina Newlands and Dimitri...

Learn the basics about Relative Atomic Mass. It is a tricky concept that's actually quite simple to understand and here, you will know how to calculate it. Find more in this video!

Learn the basics about Properties of water. What are the properties of water? What is water made of? Find out more in this video!

Learn the basics about How the elements are laid out in the periodic table? Why are they all named and placed that way? Find out more in this video!

We've learned about electron configurations, and also about how this plays into ionization, given that elements will tend to ionize in such a way so as to achieve noble gas electron configuration. But certain transition metals will seek...

This video uses animation and introduces Lewis Structures to demonstrate stable and unstable electron configurations to explain the octet rule. The program shows viewers how they can use the periodic table to understand the octet rule....

Transition metals all have similar and very useful physical and chemical properties. Their atoms can form ions with a variable charge which also gives them a range of colours in their compounds.

The relationship between energy levels and strength of chemical bonds are discussed and demonstrated in this video. Students will learn that a chemical bond forms when electrons have lower energy and that less stable atoms tend to form...

Learn the basics about properties of ionic substances as a part of ionic bonding within properties of matter.

This video is a lesson on the periodic table of elements. The teacher explains what the periodic table is, how it is organized, and its importance in understanding chemistry. The video covers topics such as the definition of an element,...

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...

Learn the basics about the law of the conservation of mass, when learning about properties of matter. The Law of Conservation of Mass says that in chemical reactions no matter is lost or gained. The law of conservation of mass means that...

How do we represent an atom, with all of its protons, neutrons, and electrons? With nuclide symbols, of course! These show the type of element, as well as the atomic number, mass number, and electrical charge of an atom. That's all you...

Learn the basics about Mendeleev and the Periodic Table. Who is Mendeleev and what did his periodic table look like? Find out more in this video!

This program makes the Modern Periodic Table come alive to students. Numerous real-life examples of elements are exemplified in the table. Animations and graphics illustrate concepts not easily achieved through other instructional...

What's the difference between periods and groups in the Periodic Table and why are the elements structured this way. Find out in this video from the Properties of Matter chapter of the Virtual School GCSE / K12 Chemistry.

I this video you will see how we can use the periodic table to tell us more about the differences between elements, including the different numbers of protons, neutrons and electrons they possess.

Why is the periodic table arranged the way it is? There are specific reasons, you know. Because of the way we organize the elements, there are special patterns that emerge. And you know how Professor Dave feels about patterns. He likes...
