    Hey ya'll -- to those watching--- i also find Khan Academy phenomenal as far as teaching style and their ability to present a concept in the most basic (sometimes story telling form) that makes us realize the types of teachers we've had in the past and allows us to go back in time and learn the very basics of something we dropped along our path of education, simply because we thought "oh i'm not good at science" or "im not good at math"....Math & Science are the foundation on which this universe came to existence and continues to exist...to study it is a must, to understand it is a major challenge especially those prone to the artistic aspect of life, but how much more enlightening and enhancing do things get when we can intersect the two worlds because we have just gained new knowledge. Khan Academy has the capability to do that.... I watch their videos even when i dont have to prep for anything, just for enjoyment of learning something new..... I do very much love this channel and as much as i wish i could be a monthly contributor, at the moment i will contribute in small amounts when i can as i do believe we ought to support those who put in the effort to give us high quality education. So please consider donating as well, even if 1000 of us donates just $5 per person, that's a good chunk of money....We push for Free Education in United States through our accredited schools -- be it ivy league or non ivy league.....Khan Academy's education is on par with Ivy League and frankly speaking they are indeed providing the education we need....they have the ability to help people connect the dots in simplest forms.....so please support them!

      Mock slowmotion Looking at the angles that he was able to write with would suggest a tablet board. Mice movements are limited to vertical and horizontal movements that are almost impossible to get curved when moving the hand in those directions etc, because the computer needs to register a diagonal movement by how many squares it has to pass through which means trying to get a clean curve like handwriting while the mouse is programmed to follow vertically and horizontal is like trying to juggle leading with your weak hand whilst looking in the mirror.

    This is something that schools ask you more questions about directly than actually giving an answer to the class. Even if the professors do, they just never actually make the answer clear at all.
    I learned something from this that my High School teachers failed to get across.

      @@MichElle-ru2rm My brother is in his 4th year of Med School UNT and we talk a lot. He loves it. But his biggest challenge while attending is getting a good score on the USMLE.
      Also he earned his B.S in Biological Science and said Organic Chemistry was difficult, but helped him get a better score on his MCAT which ensured a higher Med School acceptance rate.
      Remember that now the MCAT is just a pass or fail, and no longer doing the percentile grading as before, so maybe that might not be such an issue.
      But yes, I'd say overall he's super ecstatic even now in his 4th year. Of course in 6 more months he'll be doing his residency and done with school, so that's also exciting.

    _SUMMARISED by GPT-4:_
    1. *Elements are pure substances with specific properties.*
    Examples: Carbon, lead, gold.
    2. *Water, historically considered an element, is made of hydrogen and oxygen.*
    3. *The periodic table lists all known elements.*
    - Elements are defined by the number of protons they have.
    4. *The most basic unit of an element is an atom.*
    - Atoms are incredibly small; a million carbon atoms can fit across the width of a human hair.
    5. *Atoms are made up of even more fundamental particles:*
    - Protons (define the element)
    - Electrons
    - Neutrons
    6. *The nucleus of an atom contains protons and neutrons.*
    - Electrons move around the nucleus.
    7. *Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral.*
    - Unlike charges attract each other, which is why electrons don't just fly away from the nucleus.
    8. *The number of protons in an atom defines the element.*
    - Changing the number of protons changes the element.
    9. *Electrons can be taken away by other atoms, leading to chemical reactions.*
    - This forms the basis of chemistry: understanding how atoms of different elements interact based on their electron configurations.

    This video was helpful! (It WAS when I was in 1st grade) It is a basic molecular structure of an atom or molecules.

    do the number of protons above each element mean that the atom has one proton? Also, can one hydrogen atopm be called hydrogen or do you need a lot of those atoms.

    @SzlampStudios The strong force holds them together, the neutrons keep them from collapsing into each other.

    So protons are similar, only quantity define substance property or element type?

    • @4everThoughtful

      Yes! The number of protons tells us EXACTLY what the element is. The element can be unstable and have a different # of neutrons than protons and can even LOSE or GAIN electrons and still be the same element. Your fingerprint is your identification like no other person. The number of protons in the nucleus is the 'identify/fingerprint' of elements.

    Fantastic i can make up for all that information i missed in chemistry class...

    This is an area where you might've explained this differently; molecules, like atoms, cannot be broken down further without changing their properties.

    i actually saw ur comment on the debate , and i agree with u bcz at first being a muslim my belief was a bit weakened bcz of krauss but after i saw hamza counter it , i felt better , his on stuff depends upon deduction and the math that he is explaining , hamza also agreed with , and Masha ALLAH my belief became strong when at the end hamza mentioned that most of his points were unanswered which quite frankly was true , krauss jus made a joke out of himself

    Man, I love this stuff, how everything is made from electrons protons, and neutrons. And if there’s a totally safe element for humans but if another thing can just have one or more electrons or protons it can be something totally toxic to humans? Like isn’t this stuff mind-blowing? And then people like to think all this came from nowhere. Nah, bro. An extremely powerful and all-knowing being had to have created all this stuff and that being is the only God, Sovereign Lord of the Universe, and crew of everything seen and unseen. He says we are made from dust, and that can't be any truer as we definitely are made of elements that are found in this earth or universe. Blows my mind away man.
