Heterogenous Equilibrium
Sal explains what happens when compounds that are in different states, (solid, liquid, gas), are in a chemical reaction with each other. Through the use of diagrams, Sal demonstrates how compounds of different states attempt to achieve...

States of Matter, States of Matter and Intermolecular Forces, Chemistry
The three states of matter are the focus of this chemistry video. Sal uses the example of a water molecule and explains in great detail the forces present that allow the molecule to change between a liquid, a solid, and a gas. Of course,...

States of Matter: Solids
A solid has a definite shape and volume depending on what it's made of. Take a quick look at the chemistry that gives solids their shape and volume. This video in its entirety would be great; unfortunately, it ends prior to completely...

States of Matter: Gases
How are gases like liquids; how are they different? This clip demonstrates the state of matter called gas. We find out how the properties of gas are similar and different to the properties of liquid. An experimental demonstration and...
