Learn the basics about carbon neutral and biofuels, as a part of environmental chemistry. Coal, oil, natural gas, shale gas and gas from fracking are fossil fuels formed hundreds of millions of years ago from living things that got trapped by layers of sediment before they had time to decompose. H
Carbon dioxide is a product of one of the most important chemical reactions in the world: combustion. Like water, the bonds in carbon dioxide are POLAR COVALENT, making the carbon atom delta positive and the oxygens delta negative. Although, unlike water, carbon dioxide is not a polar molecule ov
Carbon nanotubes, or CNT, are being used to make products stronger, lighter, faster, and more efficient. But are they safe? A growing body of research is raising concerns over the hazards presented by some forms of the material. As ever though, the risk to health depends on who is exposed to what
In this video segment adapted from NOVA, hear physicist and energy expert Amory Lovins explain how to make more efficient cars by making them lighter and more aerodynamic. Explore how the use of carbon fiber can reduce weight without reducing size or durability, and learn about some manufacturing ch

Watch part 2 of the videos on the Carbon Cycle, as a part of environmental chemistry. Mankind has had an influence on the carbon cycle. The carbon dioxide released during respiration is cycled naturally. Same is the case if we burn wood and agricultural waste – even biogas given off from food we t
Watch the first part of our Carbon Cycle videos, as part of environmental chemistry. Photosynthesis and respiration help carbon to be cycled in nature by using energy from the sun. As living things grow, they have to build up large polymer molecules from small molecules. Protein comes from joinin
The neutralization reaction between an acid and a base is explained. At the end there is a small exercise part! Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alugha AI.
Learn the basics about Testing for hydrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide and chlorine. Why do we need to test these particular gases? Find out more in this video! This video is part of 'Chemistry for All' - a Chemistry Education project by our Charity Fuse Foundation - the organisation behind The Fuse S
Saving CO2 - a question of consumption? Depending on your lifestyle, your personal carbon footprint can vary a lot. In which areas are particularly much greenhouse gases produced? And how can we consume in a more climate-friendly way and cause less CO2 in everyday life? https://www.umweltbundesamt

Using the power of water has a long tradition at the location in Blaichach. The more than 100-year-old plant dating from 1907 was taken over by Bosch in 1960 and was extensively modernized and expanded in 2012 due to its great potential. In 2018, the hydropower plant generated 12,200 MWh of renewabl
