@@ChickenPermissionOG can you elaborate? I did a physics degree at the age of 50 and it all seemed counterintuitive to me so I’m sure it’s all right :) lol
Well actually he has it wrong. The energy levels are represented by the standing wave frequencies. 1st harmonic is one level, 2nd harmonic the next and so on ...
I watched this video of curiosity and I wasn't disappointed, how could I be disappointed from such a small channel, rather I'm suprised by the quality this video has. Good job on making this video, it is just like other more famous videos. Keep making videos and cover most interesting topics possible and you will get more attention
Oh my, I've just discovered your channel. My bad. I've checked your contents, and I can say, "worth watching, worth subscribing." I'm high school chemistry teacher, so is helpful a lot considering your explanation on the topic. Moreover, slides preparation videos also work really well as I'm always making presentation in front of the class. I owe you buddy. Keep up the good work, bunch of guys certainly will notice your works. Love from Indonesia.
@@ThreeTwentysix Oh, it is very helpful. I really loved that timelapse with people as a probability density. A good example can explain and make others understand. But i have one slight doubt... At 5:54 you are showing nodes where there is a lot of styrofoam, and this seems to me wrong. I checked other experiments and for this tube (both ends closed), you get 1st harmonics with nodes at the ends and antinode in the middle - styrofoam is pushed where air is moving with bigger amplitude. The same goes for Ruben's tube. Highest flame is where the biggest pressure is. Would you be so kind and tell me if i'm incorrect?
I'm just so impressed a new/small channel has this much quality, just amazing. And the explanations are incredibly intuitive. Thank you so much for your work!!!
I have been banging my head over textbooks trying to figure out how I can remotely grasp these concepts and I don’t think I could have ever have come up with something like this which actually MAKES SENSE! THANK YOU so so much ❤
How refreshing. If have heard/ seen many dozens of videos/ papers on this subject. The all regurgitate the same “spin” on how they present the data. This was a nice change.
I got so angry with my teacher doing exactly that; I can read a textbook, thank you, now do your job and help me understand the words - I'm asking a human, not a parrot. (I moved on to a different field after that, so it's all good)
Same topic can be explained in different fashions. One of the characteristics of a good teacher is to explain it in a way that's understandable and relatable to majority of the students. This is what I've noticed in this video. The effort in explanation is remarkable.
Great explanations! Thanks. I did my first degree in the early Seventies when learning resources were scant (and of course the Internet had not been thought of let alone realised). Concepts such as entropy were not explained, rather just stated with an equation and we really understood nothing. We live in a whole new World of learning now and this video is a wonderful example :-)
@Prodigious147 The guy never used those words in his post. "who has done quantum mechanics". Quantum mechanics is used as a noun. The verb is 'has done'.
THANK YOU . these are the questions that have been in my mind, it is so nice to find someone talking about it in this way, eg "how can a space with a shape suddenly appear", not just telling me how to write the configuration
I've been trying to learn physics at my own pace with public resources for a few years and man, this video is such a great lesson, one the best I've watched. This was wonderful! Even with an entry-level understanding of these concepts it's such a great reinforcement to have such an intuitive comparison/explanation to be able to remember it better, I really wish I found your channel sooner!
Im a retired Chemistry Mathematics teacher and this is the best explanation of orbitals I've seen! I wish this was around when I was teaching. I've subscribed. Keep up the good work, from Brisbane Australia.
It's been a decade since I last took a chemistry class but it's nice to finally have this further explained to me in a way I can understand. It's been one of those things I've been waiting to understand but forgotten about.
This is the best explanation of orbitals I have ever seen. This is a better explanation than my own chemistry teacher. I referred your video and known I have a clear understanding of the topic. Thank you a lot .👏👏
Whenever I hear analysis of particle physics I object, protest: if there is space there is time and movement -- that's why we can observe. No observation is timeless. The video explanation is excellent. ❤❤❤
Awesome description and analogies. Chemistry and math my 2 favorite subjects. I went to trade school for aviation electronics instead of college. In my spare time i continued studying chemistry back then there was no internet... I used the freenet connected to the local college, it took years for me to understand what you summed up in a few minutes. I had to subscribe. My oldest grandson is going to college via the airforce, I hope he is blessed with an educator of your caliber
I'm not sure how I ended up on this channel, but I'm thrilled that I did! What an amazing teacher! He breaks down complex concepts and explains them so well. Thank you for these videos! Please keep them coming!
This era of Computer Graphics made me believe that some concepts can't really be explained without the aid of Graphics and Animations, until this man arrived. I have seen many fancy and lenghty explanations on the topic of Orbitals, but this one is simply most satisfying and scientific at same time. No bullshit example, clean language, and full human explaning power demonstration. WILL RECCOMEND TO ALL MY PEERS for subscribing to you!!! Love from India 🇮🇳
Excellent video. A most underrated channel. For definitions in quantum mechanics: " The more understandable you make it , the less accurate it is , the more accurate you make it the less understandable it is' . A new law ! Great video. Never understood these orbitals in school, I think I do now , when my son is studying them . Thanks .
I am currently doing my PhD in Medicinal Chemistry. You don't realize how much you helped me to refresh this theory and cleared out a lot of stuff. Thank you!
Wow, great video! The human walking path analogy really makes me feel like I grasp the concept of orbitals more intuitively. I’ll definitely be checking out the rest of your content!
Do note that electrons generally have a significantly smaller likelihood of taking a detour with their child or their friends to check out a bus :p 3:18 Also, that person with the dog had great intuition in feeling where the lowest likelihood of running into people was. The person and the dog were at an optimal distance to all people that have been there and were there later to minimize interference between the dog and the people, and they weren't even there at the same time. That is impressive intuition. Most of us do that without thinking, but I will never not find it fascinating.
Casual watcher here, never studied chemistry or physics in depth, but the idea of wave polarity and constructive/destructive interference playing a role in atomic and molecular interaction REALLY flipped a switch in my brain. I would love to hear more on that.
Your channel is going to blow up man. Good stuff, well produced and a lot of work has gone into it. Your going to be a top scientist channel by the end of the year.
Now imagine if I had this video 5 years ago going through organic chem. I wish universities would hire teachers from youtube. Literally the only way of graduating. I didn't even bother going back to class because of how useless the professor was. Thanks for teaching me something I couldn't get for years.
Great explanation, I'll show it to my Adv. Higher class. More detail on molecular orbitals would be very welcome indeed. I also didn't realise that there was no good explanation for the two electron per orbital limit, I thought it was as a result of solving Schrödinger for the spin quantum number.
Thanks for the feedback. You're correct about about solving the Schrodinger Equation, but that's a quantitative explanation, not a qualitative explanation. In other words, you can't explain it properly without resorting to the maths. I have seen a couple of videos that make as good a job as any of visualising it, but if you're not already up there with QM, they're not much help. If you find a good one, I'll be happy to hear about it.
@@ThreeTwentysixAhh..I see. I just chicken out and teach quantum numbers from the point of view of being solutions to Schrödinger. I see your point about a "real world" explanation though. Thanks for the reply.
Great explanation! Back when I took high school chemistry I misunderstood the motion of electrons around atomic nuclei as being the same as planets orbiting around a star, which is incorrect. I held onto that misunderstanding for many years. TH-cam videos such as this one have helped me to understand the atomic and subatomic realms much better than any school textbook ever did. I am an eager student at the University of TH-cam! You have me as a new subscriber.
Wow. You're the only person who made me understood this concept. This is brilliant way to explain such a weird topic. it's mind blowing that scientist were able to study things that small and weird.
You are one of the best teacher in my humble universe! I’ve been self- taught this subject, and currently having Asimov’s wonderful fundamental of physics in my hand, but without your clear explanation, the concept of orbitals is just too abstract to me. Thanks!
Nobel prize for Physics given for the development of attosecond resolution science. The pulses are fast enough to view the actual shape changes in the orbitals themselves as the potential difference vibrates around the charge cloud.
I took what we call "expanded chemistry" in my high school more than 2 years ago and I do nothing with chemistry now, but I like to watch you just how pleasantly you explain
I´ve been watching quantum physics and related videos for 2-3 years now as an absloute amateur but love it. This is one of the best I´ve seen.. You absolutely GOT THIS! Thank you! So glad to like this video and subscribe :)
I learned of the shapes of probability spaces for electrons in 1969 and the memory of those never left me. I do love this repetition, though as well as your presentation, so I am now a subscriber!
Great video. Watching this was like having a series of epiphanies as I finally 'got' concepts I didn't actually understand in school but just answered the questions using pattern recognition.
i got a recommendation of this video as i was searching a good video to explain the concepts given in my textbook, i tried allot but only this one video cleared all my doubts . I really liked the way u explained with the people and beads thing. Thank you for making this wonderful video.
Wow wow wow! I feel so lucky to find this channel in my finall year of highschool, never thought I could understand orbitals this perfectly..Amazing work!!
I loved what you said in the extras about the orbital and the electron being two aspects of the same thing... In hindsight it feels even simple (as it is super elegant) but i feel like this is a wonderful explanation of the dual nature of matter, it certainly helped me a lot. Thanks :)
I like so much the intro of the video. The uncertainty principle also applies to the qualitative explanations for a concept. Like that: (understanding) (precision) > h/4π Beautiful video
This was such a good video. Growing up, understanding orbitals was kinda tough (there were no animations that time as well, just textbook illustrations) but this video helped me so much!
that was really super. i think the best way explained the orbitals! we wish to have good teachers are the best, we all remember the good teachers well.
Chemistry and Physics will always be beautiful applications for maths. I am now at my early 40s supporting STEM as a Math Blogger, hoping to upload math vlogs in our mother tongue - Bisaya of Cebu, Philippines. Mother tongue instructions make learning personal and sacred.
Just found your channel from a random algorithm inclusion, but I am so glad I did! I need to check out the rest of your channel for additional physics/chemistry concepts I’ve struggled with over the years, like atomic spin, electron energy levels, and sub-atomic forces. Thank you for sharing your scientific expertise and video production skills with the world!!
This is a solid explanation and as a veteran of the depths of science youtube, its obvious you are putting a lot of thought into how to communicate these ideas - you've earned a sub. Looking forward to where this channel goes. So something that I'm trying to figure out a good anaogy for is 'what do chemical bonds feel like?' E.g if somehow you could shrink down to where atoms were at cm scale, what would making and breaking various types lf bonds 'feel' like? How hard is it to pull a hydrogen atom off a carbon? It's like the first step in trying to build up an intuitive/physical understanding of chemistry, molecular machinery, enzymes and metabolism generally. First you'd have to start with questions like: what does it even mean to 'touch' something at those scales, why are atoms 'sticky' in certain locations, what makes one location on a molecule 'sticky' enough to pull an atom or molecule apart under the right conditions, why making chemical bonds releases energy. Lots of fun stuff to explore there that I havent seen content created around - Your channel struck me as well suited to explore the idea.
I'm really greatful to you cause I'm trying to improve my listening skills, and you talk so clearly. I can understand everything you say, in terms of language and content, I'm a Chemistry bachelor.
Oh my gosh! The "people in the plazza" model is the best intuitive explanation I've come across for imagning electron orbitals!
I agree. It is so relatable to your average person.
Ikr, this analogy is one of the best I've seen
Where was this in the 70s when I was studying Chemistry?
Every physics/chemistry teacher in the world needs to include this in their lessons. Fantastic explanation.
😢 more and more I come to think that this kind of knowledge just como for those Who search for it
Splendid illustration!. The best explanation I ever heard and saw.

@@ripj5301i like, how they lie about everything, then claim they need more money to develop ways to kill us. That's about all.

Well actually he has it wrong. The energy levels are represented by the standing wave frequencies. 1st harmonic is one level, 2nd harmonic the next and so on ...
Dang, where was this guy 60 years ago when I was in school? This made so much sense to me, and I worked the electronics field for 24 years.

It's like the first step in trying to build up an intuitive/physical understanding of chemistry, molecular machinery, enzymes and metabolism generally.
First you'd have to start with questions like: what does it even mean to 'touch' something at those scales, why are atoms 'sticky' in certain locations, what makes one location on a molecule 'sticky' enough to pull an atom or molecule apart under the right conditions, why making chemical bonds releases energy. Lots of fun stuff to explore there that I havent seen content created around - Your channel struck me as well suited to explore the idea.
Those are all great questions. The relationship between chemical bonds and energy will be an interesting video for the future.

I'm really greatful to you cause I'm trying to improve my listening skills, and you talk so clearly. I can understand everything you say, in terms of language and content, I'm a Chemistry bachelor.
perfect explanation. perfect guy. saved me so many tears
