  • We've all heard the terms acid and base. What do these mean? Don't just tell me about pH, silly. What structural detail makes a molecule an acid or a base? You don't know? Well, you'd better watch this then. You don't want to be embarrassed at the water cooler.

    So far I've had 2 Chem teachers for intro chem to science majors. My first teacher had ZERO language precision and my second teacher talks waaaaay too much and takes way too long to explain everything/anything. Professor Dave is very precise with his language and very concise with his content. In a world where Tik Tok, Insta, Reddit and Facebook ruin your attention span the hero we always needed is Professor Dave.
    If you ever read these comments I want you to know: You're gonna do a lot of good in this world with your videos Professor Dave. I will petition my college to have you come as our commencement speaker once Covid Season is past us. Keep at it. You're the real MVP.

      As a person with normal attention span in the social media era I can confirm this is indeed very straightforward explanation
      But to be very straightforward it means you got to cut off a lot of information that may be important to know, it's not an issue for teaching the basics of the concept though. That's why I don't think there is such thing as a "better teacher" each person has unique approach to teach.

    1. Thank you for not dressing up like a nerd (or not dressing up) like many other science tutorial videos out there. It's insulting to us in the science world.
    2. I'm a senior chemical engineering student, and I watch your videos all the time. It's amazing how coming back to basics is essential to understanding more complex material. I'd even argue the basics are the more difficult to learn.
    3. Thanks for your contribution to teaching science in a way that anyone can understand. Your summaries frankly cover the main points of entire courses I've taken (though I appreciate that studying and practicing the details is very important, too).

    So just to clarify, at 4:48, it is predominantly due the molecular geometry, and its effect on the molecule's polarity, that H2O is much more inclined to donate a proton than CH4? And when water donates a proton, how, or would it effect its electron distribution among its orbitals (for example, s&p orbitals)?

    • @ProfessorDaveExplains
      @ProfessorDaveExplains  8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      no, very little to do with geometry, it's simply that an oxygen atom is so much more capable of accommodating a negative charge than a carbon is, due to its electronegativity. after donating a proton, the lone pair left behind will occupy the same orbital it did beforehand.

  • @donnyltd6476
    @donnyltd6476 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Around 4:45 Professor Dave explains that an iodide ion is more stable than a flouride ion because of the difference in area for a charge to diffuse through, he then proceeds to say that also electronegativity plays a role but explains with a different set of examples. What I would like to know is how the electronegativity of iodide and flouride determine which atom is more stable?
    I still find it hard to accept that the iodide ion is more stable, most atoms love to exist as ions coz it's more stable. If a flouride ion has a better hold on it's electron than iodide, plus has a larger electronegativity then how come the iodide atom is apparently more stable? Someone please clearfiy this to me, before I lose my faith in the wonderful consistency of Chemistry!

    At 4:30 why is the I- ion more stable? I mean, if it's larger I believe the electron he gained is further from the nucleus, isn't it? So it can donates the electon more easily and sooo it's a stronger conjugate base and the acide should be weaker? I know you're right ofc I just want to say I don't understand. :) Hope you can answer me fast, thank you for your videos!!

    • @ProfessorDaveExplains
      @ProfessorDaveExplains  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      it mainly has to do with the size of the ion, iodide is much larger and can diffuse the negative charge about a greater volume, kind of like the way a formal charge is stabilized by delocalization through resonance.

    • @ProfessorDaveExplains
      @ProfessorDaveExplains  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      HCl is not ionic, it's covalent. and when water acts as a base it forms a covalent bond to the proton as well. it sounds like you need to head back a bit earlier in the playlist and brush up on types of bonding and other such principles.

    Sir, if oxygen has one bond and three lone pairs, as in hydroxide ion, it will have a formal charge of-1. From where does this one additional charge or one extra electron come? Also in the case of carbonate ion two of the oxygen atoms are single covalently bonded, so if oxygen has 6 valance electrons and it is sharing its one electron in bond formation then how does the lone pair upon bond formation of oxygen atom count upto three I mean since it has to share one of its six electrons in the bond, shouldn't it have 5 electrons. How after forming a single bond this one additional electron comes from here so that it provides the atom with a negative charge?
