Rates of Chemical Reactions
Part 9 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video explores the concept of reaction rate and shows how the rates of change of reactant and product concentrations vary during the course of a reaction.

Part 8 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video shows students how to calculate the enthalpy change for an overall reaction by combining a series of individual steps.
Part 7 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video introduces the concept of an oxidation state, which is a tool used to keep track of electrons in chemical reactions.
Part 6 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video reviews the concept of the mole and shows how to use atomic masses of individual elements to calculate formula masses of covalent and ionic compounds. The video also introduces the concept of stoichiometry conversions.
Part 5 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video introduces valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory and teaches students to predict the geometry of a molecule from its Lewis structure.
Part 4 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video introduces the Lewis structure, which is used to show the connectivity between atoms and the location of valence electrons.
Part 3 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video teaches nomenclature for basic inorganic compounds
Part 2 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video introduces the concept of the atomic orbital and the parameters that describe them.
Part 1 of the Flipped Learning in General Chemistry Series. This video describes the three basic parts of an atom and introduces the shorthand notation that chemists use to describe these parts.
This in-class activity was designed for a Chemical Communications course with second-year students. It is the first part of a two-week segment in which students learn how to use Chemdraw (or similar drawing software) to create digital drawings of molecules.
