Khan Academy: Energy and Enzymes: Gibbs Free Energy and Spontaneous Reactions

Sal continues his discussion of spontaneous reactions by setting up a reaction between two substances, and using the Gibbs Free Energy method to determine its spontaneity. This video is extremely heavy on the math, and it would be useful...

Use this skill check to test your understanding of chemical bonds and reactions.

The quest for energy has always been a balancing act. As humans have gained greater control over their environment, they've found abundant resources - and faced numerous challenges. This article traces the history of our quest for energy.

Looking for a simple way to teach conservation of energy in chemical reactions? Pupils can observe energy changes as water forms during a chain reaction between oxygen and hydrogen using an interactive. The resource instructs users to...

Mr. Mole and Mr. Matchmaker entertain and educate your chemists about how quickly or slowly reactants are used up in a chemical reaction. Thorough explanations of the influencing factors are offered, and demonstrations are done. After...

Investigate atoms, molecules or ions that have an unpaired valence electrons called free radicals in this video. Learn how this unpaired electron makes them highly reactive. [13:44]

Understand how to derive the half-life equation of a first-order reaction starting from the integrated rate law. [8:12]

Recognize how to derive half-life equation of a second-order reaction starting from the integrated rate law. [7:04]

A video lecture that derives the Gibb's free energy equation. The video starts by reviewing what a irreversible and reversible process is with explanations and diagrams. While describing irreversible and spontaneous process the formula...

Is this resource a great way for your class to observe bonding between oxygen and hydrogen? OH yeah! Scholars learn about the changes in kinetic and potential energy as molecules of oxygen and hydrogen interact. Kinetic, potential, and...
