This page organizes all my Alberta Chemistry 30 thermochemistry unit video lessons. The YouTube videos marked “lesson” are complete lessons on the topic. Videos marked “extra practice” are supplemental and best viewed after learning that topic.
Introduction to thermodynamics and calorimetry
Lesson – Sources of energy from the sun
Lesson – Introduction to calorimetry and enthalpy change. This videos includes the theory and calculations
Lesson – Change in molar enthalpy with theory and example calculations
Review – 5 reaction types that students must know. All students should have learned these 5 reaction types in Science 10. View this video to update your knowledge.
Communicating Enthalpy changes and problem-solving
Lesson – Communicating energy changes with various methods (enthalpy change, molar enthalpy change, equations and chemical potential energy diagrams)
Lesson – Predicting energy change for an equation (using data booklet) and problem-solving
Lesson – Strategies to solve multistep problems in thermochemistry
Extra Practice – more multistep examples
Chemical Potential Energy Diagrams
Lesson – Chemical Potential Energy Diagrams (Activation Energy, catalysts, reversible reactions, bond breaking and forming)
