Acid Base Reaction

This video looks at how to determine the product of an acid base reaction and identify the conjugates of each.

Acid Base Reaction Equilibrium

This video tutorial looks at how you can predict where equilibrium lies in an acid base reaction.

Acid Base Reaction Mechanism

This tutorial goes over the arrow pushing in a Bronsted-Lowry acid base reaction.

What is pKa?

This video gives a quick explanation of what the pKa, how it's calculated and what it i s used for.

How does electronegativity affect pKa?

This video looks at how and when electronegativity is considered when determining the strength of an acid.

How does hybridization affect pKa

In this video we look at how the hybridization of a compound can affect its acidity.

How resonance affects pKa

This video looks at how resonance can affect the pKa of a substance.

How size affects pKa

In this video we will look at how the size of an atom can affect the pKa of a compound.

How inductive electron withdrawal affects pKa

In this video we will look at how we can apply to concept of inductive electron withdrawal to compare the strengths of various acids.

Determining the form of the compound at a given pH

In this video we look at how to compare the pKa of a substance and the pH of a solution to determine what form the functional group in a substance will be.
