    I appreciate how many times you say "but why does that happen?" "I wanna know why that is the way it is" because its so helpful when im trying to picture what's going on. I can picture everything more clearly now. everything fits together. but its still confusing stuff, especially in my college intro course, but the "why" is so important when trying to understand something

      n 1 1st energy level 2 electrons n 2 2nd energy level 8 electrons n 3 3rd energy level 18 electrons - n 4 4th energy level 32 electrons. the closer to the nucleus the lower the energy level. n i being the closest to the nucleus However these energy levels have sub levels s, p , d , f and so n1 = s n2 =s , p n3 =s , p , d and n4 = s , p , d , f , and within these sub levels are orbitals s =1 orbital p = 3 orbitals d = 5 orbitals f = 7 orbitals. each one of these orbitals can accommodate 2 electrons in them that have spin in opposite directions.

Textbooks are great tools but they're useless without a good, moving image to show me literally what an atom may/should look like. This video has cleared up years of confusion for me. The cloud seems to have passed and Hank's ethereal rays are shining down on me haha.

And here it is, delivered all in one, cohesive beautiful video. Thank you.

    Some people think Hank speaks too fast. Try watching this at 2x, using TH-cam or Chrome's Video Speed Controller extension. I can understand maybe 90% of what he's saying at 2x, but I only understand about 10% of that! Chemistry really is the hardest subject ever! I swear, even calculus is easier than this, and much easier than organic chemistry! Freakin’ hell!

    For those who are thinking that this was faster than usual, IT WAS!! But, you can watch it over and over again.

    You did your absolute best to summarize an entire chapter of college chemistry into ten minutes. Knowing the material already, this was a great refresher. You're fantastic people. Keep it up.

    That pi and sigma bond stuff made no sense

    • @xternalmega
      @xternalmega 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      sigma is the first bond while pi are the second and third bonds

    • @felixjaneway
      @felixjaneway 7 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      It also can help if you're told what sigma and pi mean!
      The two terms describe the symmetry of the bond that forms. When you get two orbitals meeting end to end like those hybrid orbitals at 7:33 you form a cylinder shape. If you imagine a skewer through the bond as if you were going to spit roast it (through one carbon, through the orbitals and into the other carbon) you can imagine rotating it and it never changes. If you rotate it 20 degrees the orbital remains the same shape, position and phase (black or white) as if you rotate it 100 degrees, etc. This is sigma symmetry. Your pen has sigma symmetry. A drinks bottle has sigma symmetry. A hotdog has sigma symmetry. If you come across this later we call it Cinfinity, i.e. there are an infinite number of positions where you can rotate (C) the object and get an identical looking orbital.
      Pi symmetry means that if you put the same skewer through the centre of the two lobes of the Pi bond at 7:48, you would have to rotate the bond 180 degrees to get the orbital to be the same shape again. Anything less than that and the lobes are not in the correct position. There is another element to Pi symmetry that is not represented here. Those p orbitals that make up the Pi bond should have one shaded lobe and one unshaded lobe (representing peaks and troughs of a wave). When you rotate the pi bond with the shaded lobe and unshaded lobe 180 degrees you have phase inversion (i.e. the shaded bit becomes unshaded and vice versa). This is also essential to say something has Pi symmetry. If you look at the yin yang symbol, it also has Pi symmetry. if you imagine putting a pencil through the very centre of it and rotating it 180 degrees, the symbol will be the same except the black bit becomes white and vice versa.
      Take this backwards one step, what sort of bond is formed when two s orbitals overlap?
      The answer is a sigma bond, because they form a long cylindrical sausage shape, and so it can be rotated to infinity positions and be the same shape.

    I understood what 'quantum mechanical probabilistic distribution of electrons in space' meant quite easily. I must be a genius....ok. I'm kidding. I understood it because I read the whole chapter on this in my text book but Hank's always hilarious and I still don't understand Chemistry that much. By the way, De Broglie sucks...ok he doesn't...but he does.
