Chemistry concept taught by JESNA
Jesna and Chloe discussed energy in chemical bonding, attractive and repulsive forces, potential and kinetic energy, and bond dissociation energy. They also covered the calculation of binding energy using Coulomb's law and Rutherford-Bohr model. Jesna introduced quantum mechanics and its applications, planning to delve deeper into Rutherford's model and more advanced quantum mechanics topics in the next session.
Potential Energy
Quantization
Quantum Mechanics
Atomic Units (AU) and Hartree
Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions
Wave-Particle Duality
Kinetic Energy
Total Energy
Jesna tutored Angel on intermolecular forces, including dipole-dipole interactions, hydrogen bonding, and VSEPR theory. They worked through problems related to these concepts. Angel will send Jesna the syllabus for chromatography (Chapter 19) and stoichiometry (Chapters 10 and 11) to prepare for future sessions, and their next session will focus on chromatography.
Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Theory
Viscosity
Hydrogen Bonding
Dipole-Dipole Interactions
Covalent Bonds (Polar vs. Nonpolar)
Intermolecular vs. Intramolecular Forces
Lone Pair - Lone Pair Repulsion
Jesna and Michelle concluded their chemistry sessions by reviewing the 12 principles of green chemistry, with a focus on catalysis and energy efficiency. They discussed the economic, environmental, and safety implications of energy efficiency in chemical processes. Jesna offered Michelle options to renew the subscription or transfer remaining lessons and also provided information about her career counseling services.
