      +Sara Gates I think its good to bring out topics the way Hank does, because lets say someone is not too into science and they see it as a shady and peculiar topic. Hank introduces topics with some very good and hooking tone that drives readers into the video. However he has a tendency to speak extremely fast, which shows his high prowess in the English Language. However still, Hank is an excellent role model on how he approaches topics in chemistry, and biology.

    For the specific heat capacity portion of the video, I just want to point out that the unit 's' signifies VOLUMETRIC heat capacity (also called volume-specific heat capacity). Volumetric heat capacity is measured per unit volume, whereas specific heat capacity (usually used for solids and denoted by the symbol 'c') is per unit mass.

    @mtriplett5568 10 років тому +7

    For most of the scientific community, specific heat capacity is represented by a lower case c, indicating the heat capacity per gram. A capital C is used for molar heat capacity, with either a P or V subscript for gases, if the calorimetry is done under constant P or constant V conditions. (BTW, Using c makes the heat equation q=mcAT look a lot like the name of a dreaded medical school entrance test, which is easier to remember than your smAT)

    In my school, the difference between physics and chemistry was VERY clear. Chemistry deals with chemical phenomenons, physics with physical phenomenon. Chemical phenomenon are phenomenons where chemical composition changed, so substances necessarily must mix together. ALL ELSE: physics.
    So to me, A LOT of crash course chemistry videos were simply crash course physics videos. I'm not complaining, I'm just amazed you keep treating the diff between physics and chemistry as a matter of opinion.

    yes, that was what I was trying to say but less lengthy. It is also worth noting that H+, or hydrogen ions can also contain nuetrons which is why I really don't like saying exchanging protons. I think it is much simpler and leaves less room for confusion if you say hydrogen nucleus or hydrogen ions.

    I've found that reinforces my memory. When was in AP History last year, we would read a chapter in the book and then learn the previous chapter in class. That way, when we got around to discussing it, it was simultaneously cementing the knowledge in our brain and teaching us new materials.

  • @donniemorrow
    @donniemorrow 11 років тому +1

    One problem with the calculation is that you used the standard enthalpies of the covalent species (HCl, NaOH) instead of the standard enthalpies of the ionic, solvated species. Since strong acids and bases dissociate completely, the net ionic equation becomes important. The enthalpy of 0.100 mol of the reaction of OH- and H+ going to H2O is actually -5.73 kJ so you're not really that far off, but it could have been a bigger issue in other contexts where solubility becomes important.

    They were exchanging H+ ions which ARE, strictly speaking, protons, but are the entirety of their own nucleus, and thus never contended with the strong force. The OH- ions that result from the spontaneous proton donation (water is a weak acid) and H30+ ions from the reaction of H20 and H+ (water is also a weak proton acceptor, and as such a weak base) form a small but detectable portion of water at any given time, although the H+ ions are accepted by OH or H2O too quickly to be detected.

I know that you said that some heat is lost to the surroundings, but you could have spent ~20 more seconds explaining that, even with improvised calorimeters, you can get relatively precise measurements.

    Hydrogen bonds are bonds just like any other bond. They're of a lower strength than most covalent or ionic bonds but saying that they aren't bonds because our definition of molecules is based around covalent bonding is just pedantry.
    Just like there is no clear distinction between ionic and covalent bonds, the distinction between them and hydrogen bonds is purely a matter of degree.

    Great video, as usual. Not to pick holes, but rather to warn against reinforcing a common misconception: @6:47 when talking about breaking and forming hydrogen bonds the animation shows the molecules of water breaking apart (breaking the O-H covalent bond), this is NOT a hydrogen bond. A hydrogen bond is NOT a covalent bond to hydrogen, but a specific type of INTERMOLECULAR bond/attraction/force. Take care over this difference, I've seen a lot of marks lost in exams due to this!

    • @randerson7232

      Oh - and before anyone tries to muddy the water, the fact that the H2O will form the equilibrium 2H2O H3O+ + OH- is a different matter (although obviously another way heat energy is 'used' rather than just increasing temperature) - my point is about the misconception over the term 'hydrogen bond'

    Thanks rockinlollipop. That was my theory as well. It was the "nuts" bit that I don't get. There are many high level physists, chemists, biologists, etc... who are also Christian. My response was more out of incredulity than confusion, but I do thank you for the help.

    No. If you go back to the formula with the numbers plugged in before the result was shown, the moles cancel out, because he multiplies the value of each chemical with the amount of the chemical involved (in moles).

    @Dan Heidel...pedantry...maybe...but Hank implied in his graphics (at least what I saw) that bonds in the molecule itself were broken when only the hydrogen bonds were being broken...I'm well aware of how powerful those bonds can be...they're the reason why you and I are alive...
