Chemistry Reactions Are Amazing - See For Yourself

Source: Coursera

In general chemistry, a professor will start teaching new students about reactions which occur between individual or groups (small groups) of atoms or molecules.  The next step is to view those reactions in terms of 'moles' which is analogous to 'a dozen'.  There are "12 eggs in a dozen" and there are "602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules in a mole" -- Wow!



Well, when those molecules are viewed in these numbers the chemical reactions appear as follows in the video shown below.  The video is 11 minutes long and shows 10 very common demonstrations (reactions) which amaze the human mind.  Watch and see what you think:

Did I disappoint your imagination?  Were you able to view all of the molecules reacting together?  Probably not is the answer to both.  Chemistry is amazing.  I will elaborate more on these reactions in future posts.  Have a great weekend!
