Expressions, equations, formulae and identities are all slightly different types of algebraic notation. In this video we’re going to discover the differences. An expression is a collection of letters and numbers, with no equals sign. An equation is two expressions that equal each other, and so can be solved. A formula is a special type of equation. It shows the relationship between different variables, like the area of a circle and the radius. A formula needs more than 1 variable - otherwise it is just an equation. An identity is another special type of equation. They are equations that are true no matter what values are chosen. The two sides of an identity are interchangeable, so we can replace one with the other at any time. Strictly speaking, for identities we should use the three bar sign which means “equivalent to”. But it is common to just see the normal equals sign.

Sometimes animals and plants cannot get enough oxygen to respire aerobically, such as during intense exercise, but they still need to respire to survive. After all, everything relies on respiration for energy. Luckily there is a back-up plan; anaerobic respiration. The generalised equation for a
Sulfur is the 16th element of the periodic table, and is a non-metal. In its elemental form it is a bright yellow crystalline solid at room temperature. In this video we are going to look at the basic physical and chemical properties of sulfur. We will also discover some real-life applications of s
Respiration is the chemical process that supplies the body with energy for all other life processes: growth and repair of cells, muscle contraction, protein synthesis, sending nerve impulses, absorbing molecules in active transport to name just a few. It happens in ALL living cells, not just anima
