    Understanding Chemistry in Our WorldIn this original and informative series, Professor Al-Khalili takes us on a journey from the earliest beginnings of chemistry, through astounding discoveries, to the world of understanding that we are in today.

    Lesson 1: Chemistry and the Amazing Table

    The more you know about chemistry the more you will be able to predict, control and manipulate the world around you. In this program we learn about the elements of the periodic table. Program code: DIT09015000

    Lesson 2: Bonding: Atomic Glue

    We explore how elements interact with each other at the atomic level, and how chemists can predict these interactions. Program code: DIT09016000

    Lesson 3: Ionic Compounds - Opposites do Attract

    We look deeper into the ionic compounds. We continue our understanding of the periodic table and of ionic bonds, including some bonds that dont follow some of the rules you have learned about so far.Program code: DIT09017000

    Lesson 4: Molecules - When Atoms Share Electrons

    Viewers will learn the role that shape plays in determining the chemical and physically properties of molecules and the compounds they form. Program code: DIT09018000

    Lesson 5: Organic Molecules

    Viewers will learn how to identify organic compounds, the role carbon plays in the amazing diversity of organic compounds, as well as further emphasis on why shape matters so much in chemistry. Program code: DIT09019000

    Lesson 6: Chemical Reactions - Atoms Find New Partners

    This program explores how to identify whether a chemical or physical change has occurred, how to classify chemical reactions into categories and how to calculate substances. Program code: DIT09020000

    Lesson 7: Energy Makes Things Happen

    Focuses on the role energy plays in the reactions, you will learn that we do not know as much about energy as you might think. We know it exists and the impact it has on our world, but explaining what energy really is continues to baffle scientists. Program code: DIT09021000

    Lesson 8: Gases, Liquids, Solids - Going Through Phases

    This program brings to life the amazing physical changes that are going on around us every day. With reference to previous lessons you will explore how substances behave differently as they change states (gas, liquid, solid). Program code: DIT09022000

    Lesson 9: Solutions - Mixing It Up!

    In this program we explore the different types of mixtures and their characteristics You will explore real-world examples of solutions, including what constitutes a solution, the role certain properties play in how they function and are used, as well as ways to measure and talk about solutions. Program code: DIT09023000

    Lesson 10: Rates and Equilibrium - Controlling Reactions

    This program adds additional detail to what you already learned regarding what factors must be present for reactions to occur. In this program, you learn how successful reactions occur and why they occur at different rates. Program code: DIT09024000

    Lesson 11: Acid/Base Chemistry - Proton Power

    In this program we learn how to identify the difference between acids, bases, and salts, including their structure, formula, physical properties, and the substances they interact with. We examine the integral role of neutralization reactions as well as hydrogen and water. We also learn about the importance of knowing the difference between dangerous and safe acids and bases.Program code: DIT09025000

    Lesson 12: Electrochemistry - The Chemistry of Batteries

    This program sheds light on the amazing world of batteries. Why are some batteries rechargeable while others are not? Program code: DIT09026000

    Lesson 13: Nuclear Chemistry - Natures Power Pack

    We begin by analysing nuclear reactions so you can identify what is occurring at the atomic level. We then use this information to explore why nuclear reactions are so energetic as well as build awareness around the differences between the three types of nuclear reactions. Program code: DIT09027000

    Lesson 14: Biochemistry - The Chemistry of Life

    Viewers will learn a great deal about the depth to which chemistry explains every part and process related to the human body. This program focuses on the cell and explores in detail how much our body is affected by the various sources of energy you eat, such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.Program code: DIT09028000
