    I am so so happy you exist man❤ I'm sorry you don't have a million subscribers because this is content that is actually making me understand Chemistry and im so grateful for that because falling behind can be really painful
    But you're that person that is able to pull people out of that place of not understanding and someone people can depend on to understand a topic
    Thank you ❤

    A big thank you to you, sir! This video is so so helpful! I was so confused with all the reactions in each group. Now I know how the homologous groups are related to each other through these reactions. The table comparing substitution and elimination of halogenoalkane is extremely helpful! Just one thing to be added on to this video: the mechanism of nucleophilic substitution of halogenoalkane with NaOH/KOH to produce alcohol. I know it's very similar to halogenoalkane with KCN and NH3 but it will be great to included in this video.🙂

    30:26 why is there a lone pair on the oxygen? Since it is in group 6 shouldn’t it be stable since it’s already bonded to the carbon and hydrogen?

    • @chemistrytutor
      @chemistrytutor  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It's stable, yes. But it still has a lone pair. Two of them in fact.
      It uses 2 of its electrons to make the 2 bonds (one to C and the other to H). So 4 of its outer energy level electrons are unbonded

  • @thee_pauline
    @thee_pauline 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Sir at 25:04 isn't that a primary haloalkane (meaning it undergoes substitution only) so why is the end product a alkene? Shouldn't it be an alcohol or is the end product based on what OH is dissolved in? Please help I'm so confused

    • @chemistrytutor
      @chemistrytutor  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, the solvent for the NaOH is one of the drivers, along with the high or warm temperature. In reality you'll get a mixture of products. Usually though, the solvent is the key indicator as to what is happening

  • @user-vq4qy2hq5i
    @user-vq4qy2hq5i 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    In nucleophilic substitution, in the reaction with cyanide, why does the I become I- (minus) and 2 electrons, and not just I-. As iodine has 7 electrons, but 1 of these electrons is bonded with the carbon in the bond, if it just gains the electron from the chlorine, should it not be I-? As well as this, why in the reaction with ammonia is there a positive?

    • @chemistrytutor
      @chemistrytutor  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Great questions.
      When the C - I bond breaks the I takes both electrons. The I becomes negative as you say. We often don't need to show the electron pair from the bond, but if we do choose to show it, we don't normally worry about how we show the electrons. This usually means we choose to show them as two dots (rather than a dot and a cross).
      For the Ammonia substitution, the intermediate needs to be charged for a couple of reasons. Firstly, the two reactants were neutral, and the halogen leaves as a negative ion, so the other thing needs to be positive to conserve charge. Secondly, the Ammonia has lost full control/ownership of its lone pair, and its now shared. So it effectively has now got 50% ownership of the pair. A net loss of 1 electron

      Hi, yes, this video will be suitable for any exam board.
      I teach AQA so I always make sure it covers everything needed for AQA.
      All exam boards are at least 95% the same though. The main differences between them is not the content they include, but rather how they structure the course, what topics are on each exam and the question style
