  1. Equilibrium Graphs2016/10/21
    We look at graphs of concentration vs time and rate vs time for the Haber process. Consideration of the value of the equilibrium constant as changes are made to the system at equilibrium are included.
  2. Equilibrium Constant Values2016/10/20
    In this episode we consider some values of an equilibrium, and show that even if the raw ratio of reactants to products is reversed when a chemical equilibrium is reestablished the value of the equilibrium constant remains unchanged, so long as the temperature remains constant.
  3. Equilibrium2011/01/03
    This chemistry video podcast looks at the concept of equilibrium as it applies to chemical systems. (It is an old,ie 2006, episode that I inadvertently deleted when trying to get rid of spam comments!) I really must publish more up to date episodes!! I do intend to get more episodes out this year, along with an epub book on intro chem.

  5. reactivity of alcohols (video) nov 11th 20082008/11/11
    This chemistry video podcast investigates the reactions of ethanol, 1-butanol (ie butan-1-ol), 2-butanol (ie butan-2-ol) and methyl-2-propanol (ie methylpropan-2-ol) with potassium dichromate, potassium permanganate and sodium metal.
