List of Chemical Reactions

     Have you tried mixing soda with vinegar? This is an acid-base reaction. When you burn something, it's a redox reaction.  Let's see the list of all the reactions! It is very big List of organic reactions - Wikipedia

Li-ion Batteries - Be Careful with Your Phone ⚡🔥☁️😱

Phones and laptops can work while not plugged into a socket, because they have battery inside.  The best batteries as for now work on metal called lithium . When damaged, these batteries can set on fire or even explode.  Be careful - do not break or heat your phone. Remember - there is a battery inside it! Here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWe2G_AChDM

 Here is a nice overview of the history of perfume components:  https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1O4kFM6SLQvGO77uPqAFVYIRvSBasBMXI?usp=drive_link Amazing lectures about the history of perfumery - with chemical formulas, done by Luca Turin, an experiences scientist.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dflw8uRG7Rc&list=PL_brJ8c_lV9LoBMXx1IXSHTISaYD3geSf&index=16    Our nose works like an IR spectrometer - we can sense molecular vibrations! There are many clever experiments with fruit flies that can used to prove this theory.    We can smell separately functional groups like SH, C=N, COOR, etc., and the whole molecular vibrations in the `fingerprint` region of the IR spectrum.

Atoms - Simple and Fun Introduction Lesson

Image
    How shall we start learning about atoms and elements? Let's draw the first three atoms one by one! Let me introduce to you hydrogen, helium , and lithium , Let's see short videos of how hydrogen bubbles fly up, because they are lighter than air, and how helium can change your voice. Then we can learn about protons, neutrons, and electrons.
