    Attended one of his lectures when I was a chemical engineering student. Absolutely focused and brilliant man! I was a bit of an undercover nerd in college though ;P A little advice for the up an coming, if you like chemistry, just go with chem E you will not find a decent paying or maybe even a job at all with just a plain chemistry degree unless you want a Phd or teach. Anyway why not get the best of both worlds, mechanics and chemistry! Good luck to all in their studies! One other thing you don't have to be a genius, just love what you do. I wouldn't have called myself a star pupil in highschool.

      Yes it is waste... there are chemical-safe waste containers with a spring loaded, gasketed lid for organic and for inorganic chemicals, they are picked up and disposed of properly. Chemicals NEVER get poured down a sink in any lab... The only thing you can let go down the sink is water, provided it has no chemicals in it.

    1:43 The chromium is actually not oxidized in the reaction he mentions there. The oxidation state of chromium doesn't change in that reaction (stays at 6+), but rather the oxidation state of 3 of the 4 oxygen atoms in the chromate change from 2- to 1- (and an oxygen with oxidation state 1- is added from the hydrogen peroxide).

    A word of correction at 1:49
    The professor said the chromium was in CrO4²- (chromate ion) state, when actually it was _actually_ in the Cr2O7²- (dichromate ion state), since we started with potassium dichromate.

    • @klugeskind90
      @klugeskind90 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      +Rishav Koirala it doesn't matter what he started with as there is a dichromate-chromate equilibrium based on the acidity of the solution (here it is acidic -> orange colour, mainly dichromate)

    • @marcsmausz2215
      @marcsmausz2215 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      klugeskind90 I think it s a redox reaction too cause o- from peroxide is oxidized to o2 so either the chromate or dichromate should reduce. So it s not an acid base equilibrium as you suggest.

    Ah, devil ether. It makes you behave like the village drunkard in some early Irish novel. Total loss of all basic motor skills. Blurred vision, no balance, numb tongue. The mind recoils in horror, unable to communicate with the spinal column. Which is interesting because you can actually watch yourself behaving in this terrible way, but you can't control it. You approach the turnstiles and know that when you get there, you have to give the man two dollars or he won't let you inside. But when you get there, everything goes wrong.
