  • In this episode, Hank talks about how nutty our world is via Buffers! He defines buffers and their compositions and talks about carbonate buffering systems in nature, acid rain, pH of buffers, and titration. Plus, a really cool experiment using indicators to showcase just how awesome buffers are.

This has helped so much!!!

    Little note at 6:48 where Hank comments about not being justified to bringing out the decimal place to the 4th digit due to significant figures. Mathematically speaking, when taking the log of [H+], the digit before the decimal place is not counted among the significant figures of the final answer. Only the decimal places do. Because the numbers beforehand contain 3 significant figures, pH of 4.746 is a valid answer!

    Thank you as always but a really big thank you for the very episode. Crash Course Chemistry is always interesting, but starting outdoor and by using very basic chemicals and lab equipment, you made it very relevant to me. Usually, it is hard to get the basic and the bigger picture into a show for eureka moment. Here: Done perfectly. Of course, this moment based on all lessons before that, but teaching starting from scratch to this moment is an art in its own rights.

    6:36 That first equation is incorrect. You have accidentally flipped the numerator and denominator. Although later on it is not a problem in this calculation because it will get flipped anyways, by solving for the hydrogen concentration; but it is still a mistake. I was confused for a while before I figured it out. Hopefully you can add an annotation to indicate this in the video. Thanks.

    • @saeedbaig4249
      @saeedbaig4249 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I meant the frame where the yellow "k" is the subject of the equation (the frame lasts for less than a second, immediately after he says "let's just solve for that" at the beginning of 6:36 ) is set up wrong. However, the actual value they calculated for H^+ is correct because the equation they set up in 6:37 is correct (even if it doesn't follow from the one shown at the beginning of 6:36).

    Fully agreed. An here in his function as an advisor, he should/must be a good example. Using gloves and glasses for all work is just the right thing to do. Usually, such an experiment is just an entry level experiment for more things to come: Students need to get used to working properly (in a situation where the risk literally is insignificant), before taking on more complex expriments with bigger hazards.

  • @zacharyivanhawkins251
    @zacharyivanhawkins251 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    The most accurate way to perform a titration is to take pH readings of your solution as a function of the total volume of titrant added. Hopefully you should get a beautiful curve, and from there, determine the equivalence point.

    (8:19) Hooray PPE!
    (9:01) Eep! I can't count the number of times I've pulled out the stop-cock splitting drops this way. And with the burette there I am just envisioning acid bath to the face O.O Have you considered splitting drops by letting a single drop form on the tip (ala 8:23) and then washing it into the burette? Also the titration thief is a fantastic technique when you are unsure of your end point.
