    In this video, we look at what is meant by the word "mole" and how to calculate moles of an element. This can be seen as a tricky subject but I'll explain what you need to know and make it easier for you to get.

  • @belltale442
    @belltale442 2 роки тому

    i actually thought this wasnt something i could understand and was too complicated but this guy has just made me realise how simple it is.
    if you get the number of grams that is the same as the relative atomic mass of that element then you have one mole. the calculation i now understand. I've not just memorised it but I've now completely understood why it works.
    So thank you, FreeScienceLessons guy XD.

    Hi,
    I love your videos. Just wondering, when will you finish all videos on new spec Science (chem + bio + phys)? Also, I'm doing OCR so if I watch all of your videos (new spec) plus do the samples + revision guides, will I get a nine? (without school lessons, just all your videos + revision guides + papers)

    • @Freesciencelessons
      @Freesciencelessons  7 років тому +35

      I can't promise a 9 I'm afraid as it depends on so many factors. Also, why are you not counting school lessons?

    • @AnimeOracle
      @AnimeOracle 7 років тому +24

      I learn literally nothing - I'm in top set yet my peers yell and throw stuff around and just inhibit any learning. I figured, if I watch all of your new spec videos + revision guide + practise papers, I can learn all the spec? Also, when will you done with the new spec Bio/Phys/Chem as I can't wait?
      Love your videos, keep 'em up!

    • @Freesciencelessons
      @Freesciencelessons  7 років тому +71

      I will have finished all of the videos well before the exams in 2018. I've had a short break as I lost my voice due to a throat infection but I should be back to normal now. I'm uploading five over the next few days.

    • @AnimeOracle
      @AnimeOracle 7 років тому +15

    i watched an explanation about moles about a month ago and didn't understand it at all. With this video, I understood it perfectly. In addition, I'm slightly buzzed and I still was able to understand this video perfect. Just take the mass of the element in grams and divide it by the relative atomic mass given on the periodic table. Pretty lit.
