Ian, This is the best explanation of chemistry that I have ever understood, considering I didn't know much about chemistry because it always intimidated me. Your videos have truly lightened up my world. Thanks and keep up the fantastic work.
Son of a gun. Now I understand how it’s H2O!! If I had a you as a teacher growing up I would’ve been a chemist like my grandfather was for Kraft! This is fantastic. If only this explanation was taught in school! Much thanks!!!!
I never could understand how simple atom could form such a complicated thing as a cell till now your videos showed me how they are all connected thank you sir for showing a Layman the inner workings of the atomic structure i'm finding this subject intriguing i just wish i had teachers like you in my school
I am loving this! I never took chemistry in school and decided learn about the periodic table. Other explanations seem so complicated compared to this :D Thank You!!!
Amazing I am almost finished my teaching degree and never knew anything about Atoms ... until now... I find it really interesting and will be exposing my young children to these videos - Thanks Ian
It's an amazing and magical mathematical puzzle, and this just scratches the basics. Going beyond to the formation of complex molecules that form life itself, and the life and intelligence that has been created from this amazing matter, that has recently (relatively) evolved to have the capability to look back on to itself. There is still so much to discover.
honestly i'm impressed with your presentation sir. The entire explanation is very clear along with this animation. i hope i can use your video in the future. Your name will be credited on my presentation. :-) EXCELLENT! if this video were made from 2000 until this day. i might get 100% for my chemistry paper that time! haha. Most of time i only got C+ and B the highest point i got Xd. thanks for the video.
Excellent and extraordinary video as all that I have seen so far created by this great master professor. Thanks so much Ian Stuart for teaching me and for you passion for knowledge! I can't wait to see which video is next! Julián Gómez Giraldo.
excellent basic understanding which is so important to our children. I liked, and added ur videos to my page. I also subscribed. Thanks and keep sharing!
The number of electrons per shell may be wrong. Others have it as 2,8,18 (for the third floor not eight again), 32,50, then 72 electrons. k-2,L-8,M-18, N-32, O-50, P-72. Someone's wrong.
+Fat Gator Wrong. The design of the Periodic Table depends on the electron shells of the atoms of different elements. If only the 2nd shell held 8 electrons (and the next shell out held 18) then the table would look much different. There's no way they could have got this wrong.
Very nice explanation, the best! Any chance of a video showing the quantum arrangement of the electrons in the second shell, and how the hydrogen atoms nest alongside the C, N, and O atoms?
Great video. But I have one question. How oxygen bond with carbon, sulphur and nitrogen and how Oxygen forms two compound with them i.e co2, Co ; so2 , So4 ; Co, Co2
Hello there! Great video...but I have a question...as explained there, water molecule has 10 electrons as 8 of oxygen and 2 of 2 hydrogen. Also the last and second orbit of oxygen is full as it forms covalent bond with Hydrogen..and the orbits of both hydrogen atoms are full...so there are no free electrons present...then how does current flows through water if there are no electrons present to carry out it? Thanks sir.
So what have I learned from this video? 1. The atomic number = the number of protons = the specific element. 2. The roman numeral/group number = the number of valence electrons = determines how many more electrons needed to have a complete eight electrons in the valence shell.
A great show for us mentally challenged retired lawyers in D.C. I still will never understand why the German scientists did not realize why one particular heavy water power plant in Norway was attacked and foolishly did not know why. Were they really that stupid in atomic research? This is not a political question at all I hope.
BlackGray LightGray Wrong, it has 2 in the inner shell,(K shell), and it has 8 electrons in the outer shell. 8+2 = 10, but we know it has 14 electrons, which means the last shell must have 4 electrons. The last shell to be full must have 8 electrons, so 8-4 is 4, meaning 4 empty spaces, 4 bonds possible
Explanation is Good But Music Sucks...! Please Try To Not Put Music into Educational Videos. It Looks Unprofessional Too. Anyways You Explained Very Well.
I personally think that the music selected for this absolutely great illustration fits perfectly. It reminds me of the etudes which were devised by Western classical musicians as training tools used to combine the basic motor skills required to perform the written music of the period. It may seem basic to the Eastern ear, for lack of a 24 tone scale and one that utilizes pitches in between, but I find it sublime in it's usage in the teaching of basic atomic bonding. One could argue that the sound of such constructs should start with the most profound and perfect, seemingly, complex combinations, only to be dumbed down to the resulting "vulgar" bondage. I would recommend to Amrit, a good listen to Ravi Shankar and Philip Glass, one of my favorite combinations of simplicity and complexity, and look forward to the next video. You are, truly, a great teacher.
Ian, This is the best explanation of chemistry that I have ever understood, considering I didn't know much about chemistry because it always intimidated me. Your videos have truly lightened up my world. Thanks and keep up the fantastic work.
+Ian Stuart true that my teacher is the boss of the boss
This is pure gold , not in the element sense but in the knowledge sense.
+Jjames Anderson AGREED

Excellent material! The best I've ever seen in this category!

Clearly presented and a pleasure to watch and learn!
very easy to grasp. i never had such good experience.
Great videos, really helpful and well explained. Thanks!
I am loving this! I never took chemistry in school and decided learn about the periodic table. Other explanations seem so complicated compared to this :D Thank You!!!
+Ian Stuart I'm totally watching my heater break apart methane molecules right now to keep me warm!
Excellent simplified video on atomic structure.
Amazing I am almost finished my teaching degree and never knew anything about Atoms ... until now... I find it really interesting and will be exposing my young children to these videos - Thanks Ian
THIS WAS THE BEST THING EVER!!!!!!! Thank you so much
best material.....awesome video

Your time and skill is appreciated
I m bond...covalent bond....hahaha wat a sense of humour hahaha
This video helped me to understand this so much better - excellent visuals
Thankyou
this is the best channel which teaches the physics
sooooooo great video it's useful to me
Excellent!!

I m from commerce stream..yet I can understand it so easily.. its so interesting...great job keep it up..
Excellent and extraordinary video as all that I have seen so far created by this great master professor. Thanks so much Ian Stuart for teaching me and for you passion for knowledge! I can't wait to see which video is next! Julián Gómez Giraldo.
This the only video i understood for chemistry explanation,good job and keep it up. :)
excellent basic understanding which is so important to our children. I liked, and added ur videos to my page. I also subscribed. Thanks and keep sharing!
The best video ever i seen........can you explain other bond like non covalant,phosphodiester
before watching this video atom is begest enemy of me but after watching this video it became my friend thanku for making our friendship ...tq
Thankyou so much for the information
You are the BEST, indeed! Thank you!
Brilliant thanks!

You are a genius .. I made hard very easy
Very nice explanation, the best! Any chance of a video showing the quantum arrangement of the electrons in the second shell, and how the hydrogen atoms nest alongside the C, N, and O atoms?
Great video. But I have one question.
How oxygen bond with carbon, sulphur and nitrogen and how Oxygen forms
two compound with them i.e co2, Co ;
so2 , So4 ; Co, Co2
Hello there! Great video...but I have a question...as explained there, water molecule has 10 electrons as 8 of oxygen and 2 of 2 hydrogen. Also the last and second orbit of oxygen is full as it forms covalent bond with Hydrogen..and the orbits of both hydrogen atoms are full...so there are no free electrons present...then how does current flows through water if there are no electrons present to carry out it?
Thanks sir.
sir, is it same to other elements?or just in these three?
please Ian, make more video's like these
So what have I learned from this video?
1. The atomic number = the number of protons = the specific element.
2. The roman numeral/group number = the number of valence electrons = determines how
many more electrons needed to have a complete eight electrons in the valence shell.
Ian, much thanks
H2O,NH3,and CH4
Please explain "heavy water" or h3O? Is that why it is radioactive because it bounces off energy on that extra electron? I hope I got it.
A great show for us mentally challenged retired lawyers in D.C. I still will never understand why the German scientists did not realize why one particular heavy water power plant in Norway was attacked and foolishly did not know why. Were they really that stupid in atomic research? This is not a political question at all I hope.
all thanks to u
I’m struggling with the double and triple -- I will go over this and put to memory
YEAHHHH THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!!!!!!!!
I guess my question is, is there a way to tell how many valencies each element has?
***** Silicon has 14 empty shells in its outer ring right?
BlackGray LightGray Wrong, it has 2 in the inner shell,(K shell), and it has 8 electrons in the outer shell. 8+2 = 10, but we know it has 14 electrons, which means the last shell must have 4 electrons. The last shell to be full must have 8 electrons, so 8-4 is 4, meaning 4 empty spaces, 4 bonds possible

so Carbon can bond wit 4 electrons and got 4 eloctrons on his outher shell so carbon can bond with carbon and cant bond after that becouse its full ?
i already got the answer, 3 bond's is the max becouse it simply not fit becouse i of the curve
The name's Bond,
Atom Bond
EDIT: WTF i did this b4 seing the video and it's already there... haha
woohoo im first to comment
பின்னுரீங்க பா.
Its all quite elementary :)
So they share with inmigrant electrons... we have a lot to learn from them... jk #MAGA
