  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 พ.ค. 2024
  • Last week, Hank talked about how stuff mixes together in solutions. Today, and for the next few weeks, he will talk about the actual reactions happening in those solutions - atoms reorganizing themselves to create whole new substances in the processes that make our world the one we know and love. This week, we focus on acids and bases and their proton-exchanging ways.

    Funny chemistry story (actually, not really, lab safety ain't no joke kids...):
    I once had my shirt disintegrated off me. A classmate walked right behind me and I didn't know he was there and I bumped into him. I don't remember the concentration, but unfortunately for me he was carrying a tray with phosphoric acid. It wasn't life threatening but about an hour later while riding the bus home, I was feeling a little itchy on my shoulder where the acid spilled on me. I reached back to scratch it and my shirt just started...well...disintegrating at the touch. I lost the whole upper right side of my shirt.
    Confused the hell out of the bus driver, who noticed my current state of attire as I was exiting the bus, before she could ask I said, "Don't worry, I just had acid spilled on me in chemistry." I then proceeded to take long and thorough shower as soon as I got home.

      A 'friend of a friend' being funny in class when lab safety was being covered - you know: "don't inhale directly, just waft it towards you", was being a typical asshat and while repeating something to the effect of "ahh, the wafting sensation" was a little too vigorous, and waved too hard, or inhaled too deeply, but definitely knocked himself out. He made a full recovery, and the rest of my High School life was filled with a "enjoy the wafting sensation" joke whenever someone passed gas in that group of friends. As teenage boys, you can image, it was often. Incidentally, we did *not* in fact enjoy it, at all.

  • @FiratHira
    @FiratHira 9 ปีที่แล้ว +67

    Just to make sure I have this right as some of the calculations set out below seem incorrect:
    For 1 metric ton of coal containing 3% Sulphur the following applies:
    30 Kg of Sulphur requires as calculated in the video: 30000 g of S / 32.065 = 935.59956 moles then as 1 mole of S reacts with 1 moles of CaCo3 = 935.59956 * 100.09 = 93644.159 g which is = 93.64 Kg of CaCo3 to fully neutralize it producing 112.431 Kg of CaSo3. Therefore you need ~ 3.12 Kg of CaCo3 to neutralize 1 Kg of Sulphur.
    Knowing this, the approximate answers would be as follows for 1x10^9 metric tons of coal:
    The amount of Sulphur produced from 1 metric ton of coal = 30 Kg * 1 billion = 3.0x10^10 Kg of S produced.
    The amount of CaCo3 needed for 1 metric ton of coal = 93.64 * 1 billion = 9.364x10^10 Kg of CaCo3 needed (which is 3.121 times the amount of Sulphur produced).
    Finally the amount of CaSo3 produced from 30 Kg of Sulphur reacting with 93.64 Kg of CaCo3 = 112.431 * 1 billion = 1.12431x10^11 Kg of CaSo3 produced.
    RFM for Sulphur = 32.065 g
    RFM for CaCo3 = 100.09 g
    RFM for CaSo3 = 120.17 g
    Good luck to all!

    You are incorrect at 10:42. You stated that when a base donates a proton it forms a conjugate acid. Bases do not donate protons, but rather accept them. You should have stated that when a base accepts a proton, it forms a conjugate acid. Please fix this and thanks for the great video!

    The answer to the question in the video:
    Since a ton (1000kg) of coal produces 30kg of sulfur, a billion tons (1,000,000,000kg) would produce 30,000,000kg (30,000,000,000g) of sulfur.
    The molar mass for limestone (CaCO3) is 32.1 g/mol.
    30,000,000,000 g ÷ 32.1 g/mol = 934,579,439.3 moles of sulfur.
    Since one mole of sulfur equals one mole of CaCO3 used, 934,579,439.3 moles of limestone is needed.
    The molar mass of CaCO3 is 100.1 g/mol.
    934,579,439.3 mol × 100.1 g/mol = 9.36 × 10^10 g = 93,4441,401.87 kg of CaCO3
    93.4 million kilograms (94 thousand tons) of limestone would be used.
    (sorry I didn't count the significant digits in my calculations. Pls correct me if I had a mistake. Also, after reading this, you may as well guess my age.)

      Thanks, I was looking for this comment.
      Intelligence is a poor thing to judge age based on, but based on the fact that you're asking I would hazard a guess at around 15.
      Also; what no Stoichiometetric equation?!?

    • @durugyakos1
      @durugyakos1 9 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      Be careful with the powers of 10 when converting tons to kilogramms. A billion tons = 1,000,000,000 tons = 1,000,000,000,000 kg = 1,000,000,000,000,000 g (1000^5 or 10^15 grams), so 30,000,000 kg of sulfur that you calculated would be the amount produced by a million tons of coal. For a billion tons of coal approximately 93.6 billion kilograms (96 million tons) of limestone would be needed

    • @seancrockett4141

      Reawaken :3 The molar mass for limestone is not 32.1g/mol... it's about 100.1 g/mol. Won't that change the final answer?

Hank presents it better than I could have hoped for: it's fun to learn the material. Hank and John are my new heroes - seriously. This material and others like it to follow can completely democratize education. May everyone find out about it.

    Go Brown! As suggested by one of the best TV hosts ever, Mike Rowe. Cleanish coal is better than no coal. You can't just shut off all the coal plants in the US like a light switch.

    I got 320679320.679. Here's my process:
    1) Find 3% of 1 billion, which is 30,000,000.
    2) Find the amount of grams in 30,000,000 kilograms, which is 30,000,000,000.
    3) Find the amount of sulfuric moles in 30,000,000,000 grams , which is 963,000,000,000.
    4) Find how much Calcium Carbonate this translates to, as Calcium carbonate has a molar mass of 100.1, ANS = 9620379620.38 grams.
    5) Reduce this number back to kilograms, which ends up being a tidy 9620379.62038 kilograms, or about 9620 metric tons.

    • @tricketts5355
      @tricketts5355 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Your method is correct but you made a mistake on step 1.
      Find 3% of 1 billion TONNES, not 1 billion. 1 billion tonnes = 10^15g
      3% of 10^15g = 3x10^13g
      Number of S moles in 3x10^13g = 9.36x10^11 moles (might have different answer in this step depending one what value you have for sulfur's relative atomic mass).
      CaCO3 molar mass = 100.1g
      (100.1) x (9.36x10^11) = 9.37x10^10kg
      Convert kg to tonnes (divide by 1000)
      ~ 9.37x10^7 tonnes of limestone.
      But yeah otherwise well done. Just remember to check your SI units. :)

      @iangolding8936 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Tom Ricketts Actually, your method of rounding may be flawed. As sulphur has an atomic mass of 32,065 or a molar mass of 32,065 moles, you get the value of there being 9,35453696*10^11 moles. As 4 is a smaller number than 4, the correct manner of approximation would be to round downwards to n(S)=9,35*10^11 mol.

    It's called "Crash Course" for a reason. It doesn't go into the deeper details, but instead gives the general oversight and helps people grasp the baser ideas of a given subject and then move onto the more advanced material at their own rate. Crash Course doesn't go into the same detail as a Textbook will, but is easier to understand. In order to move to more advanced material, one requires the base knowledge that could be provided by this video.
