Q 12 The standard potential

With the help of the standard hydrogen half-cell, the potentials of all other half-cells can be determined. The standard hydrogen half-cell represents the defined 0-point. Therefore, these measured potentials are referred to as standard potentials. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All

How Does a Pendulum Work?

When a pendulum swings, kinetic and potential energy constantly convert into each other. The total of both remains exactly the same. So, theoretically, the pendulum should never stop swinging. But how does it come to a stop? Authors: ZDF/Terra X plus/Bilderfest/ Tillman Graach/ Benjamin Herzberger/

Q 12 Statements of the voltage series

With the measurements of all half-cells against the standard hydrogen half-cell, the voltage series can be established. This screencast explains how to deal with this table and what statements can be read from it. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have be

Ten ways water can kill

A tongue in cheek look at the potential dangers associated with water - that at the same time sets the scene for some rather intriguing future videos on risk and safety. For more information see http://riskbites.org/2012/08/16/ten-ways-water-can-kill/ Water, ice, steam, risk, health, science, safe
