These are properties that solutions have, and pure solvents do not. We discuss the following 4 colligative properties: vapor pressure lowering, boiling point elevation, freezing point depression and osmotic pressure. The reason why each property happens is explained in terms of how the solute particles ‘get in the way’. The degree to which each property changes is also calculated. Also, the difference between ionic and molecular solutes are discussed in terms of vant hoff factors.

The introduction is filmed on location at the famous wave, Pipeline, on the north shore of O'ahu. Too many surfers to count. This was the day before the start of the Volcom Pipe Pro contest. Many professional surfers out there getting their fix.

General Chemistry II - Lecture 10 - The Colligative Properties Of Solutions

These videos are being made because I love teaching general chemistry. Also, I want to provide clear videos that are captioned for the deaf and hard-of-hearing, as well as for international students who use English as a second language (ESL). These video lectures are being used to assess such students as well as hearing students. However, any student of general chemistry should find the lectures very useful. Clear and concise explanations, colorful notes, and simple diagrams are used. All videos are uploaded under the Creative Commons license, so please feel free to use them in any way you.

These videos are hard work on my part, and I enjoy making them. If you continue to watch, then you will not only learn chemistry, but also some interesting things about the state of Hawai'i. Each video normally begins with a short clip taken on location, from somewhere in the Hawaiian Islands. And if you are on the island of O'ahu or happen to visit, then please feel free to stop by Leeward Community College say hello.
Enjoy and Aloha !!!
