One of a series of eight book-and-CD-ROM packages developed for the Open University’s course THE MOLECULAR WORLD (S205), which provides a broad foundation in chemistry by introducing fundamental ideas,...
Steps in the development at ICI of a long life carbon-zinc-aluminium hydroxide catalyst for the low-pressure and -temperature synthesis of methanol from hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Investigation of the...
Deals with examples of substitution and addition reactions classifying each as nucleophilic, electrophilic or free radical and with acidic and basis eliminations.
Discusses the formation of vinyl chloride from 1,2 dichloroethane and the factors which affect yields and rates. Thermodynamics suggests an optimum yield at 600k but the rate of formation at this temperature...
Video demonstrating chemical reaction when carbon dioxide is placed in water. A lump of solid carbon dioxide is placed in water containing a few drops of universal indicator. The indicator changes to an acid...
1: A chemistry tutorial on reaction kinetics and thermochemistry. Shows several experiments and includes reinforcement of diagrams used in the course text. 2: Looks at the supply of electrical power from...
Discusses heterogeneous catalysis and its applications using laboratory examples, such as gas reaction with air on hot platinum, and industrial examples, such as the Haber process. Discusses the use of...
Demonstrates coating of large thin-layer chromatography plates and preparation of a chromatogram. Close-up sequences of spotting, elution, and detection of spots on chromatogram by use of ultraviolet...
This film, produced in the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory of the University of California, Berkeley, features four scientists who were principals in the discovery and identification of several of the...
The alkaline hydrolysis of a chiral chloride (L)-1 chloro-1-phenyl ethane) is followed polarimetrically to illustrate a unimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction. Unimolecular and bimolecular...
