Melatonin Release and the Body's Rhythm

The pineal gland regulates the body’s day-night rhythm through melatonin release. So when it gets dark and hardly any light reaches the eyes, it releases melatonin. Higher melatonin levels make us tired. Authors: 3sat/NANO/Logo (Marco Polo Film AG)/S. van Iersel, T. Visser, A. Scheurich/ Armin Rieg

Q 11 The phenol reacts as an acid

Why does phenol react as an acid (proton donor) even though it does not have a carboxy group? The screencast shows and explains the different mesomeries of the phenol molecule and phenolate ion. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alu

Nuclear Fusion in the Sun

A constant fire burns in the Sun, powered by nuclear fusion. In this process, light atomic nuclei fuse to form heavier chemical elements. This process releases an enormous amount of energy.

09 Acids and bases

Acid and base definitions according to Brönsted are explained. At the end, protolysis reactions are described. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alugha AI.

Q 12 Iodine-chlorine element

This screencast shows that the voltage series is not limited to metals. Oak non-metals and non-metal ions can absorb or release electrons. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alugha AI.

08 Isotopes

Different isotopes of the elements can exist. These have a different mass number, but identical proton number. This is explained in the screencast and discussed again at the end using the example of hydrogen. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been do

08 Ion formation

Rutherford's atomic model can already explain a simple formation of charged particles (ions). The PSE can help us detect whether an atom absorbs or releases electrons. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alugha AI.
