What is a Polyatomic Ion?

Polyatomic ions are groups of atoms that have a charge. In this video, we look at how to write formulas that include them.

this is very helpful, i really didn't understand polyatomic ions until now. thank you

[@Vlad-pc2rw]

I always had a spark of curiosity for chemistry, and always wanted to learn more but I always had to go from video to video looking up each definition explained for every word I didnt know, until now, never seen a more comprehensive video, Ill make sure to stay tuned.

Thank you for such a nice comment!

Thanks so much sir you have explained so well and you have opened my mind

This video right here is undoubtedly the best one out of all of this topic. Love from Pakistan

Thank you!

You are doing a great job

Thanks for the first example sir but how do we come up with this SO42-

Thank you for this! Really helped.

so helpful, i couldn't understand what my module is trying to say XD

Thanks Teacher

Thank you so much

[@gruffyfloof475]

Are they metals or non metals???

[@Sofia-uj5cs]

depends on what element you're talking about

[@raulc02]

they arent balanced.. are they not supposed to be ? first two examples are balanced...

[@raulc02]

5:51 why dont we need another k if its plus 1... SO is two minus... 1 doesnt equal 2...

[@duellchemistry]

There are two K ions, each with a +1 charge.
2 equals 2 🤓

[@raulc02]

@@duellchemistry but its K+ ... not K ^2+ ...

[@duellchemistry]

There are 2 of them. +1 and +1 = +2.
Then the SO_4 has a single -2 charge.
Thus K_2SO_4 is overall neutral.

[@raulc02]

same question with the last 3 examples..

[@vladyslavamartynovska822]

thanks so much for this video!
I want to make sure I understand correctly (sorry for stupid questions:) )
we're making Neutral molecular compounds from monatomic and polyatomic ions, right? That's why we wanna make the whole thing neutral?

[@raulc02]

or are you just writing them out,, not necessarily balanacing them..

[@luomeng]

Thank you.

[@dxrk8061]

your software is so clean thanks for helping me

[@samkelosheperd7534]

Thanks l was looking for clarification

[@aditi2326]

I was having so many doubts regarding this topic but u explained it so well in such a short time, it was really helpful but next time could u please give subtitles to your videos because the audio of the video was not very clear

[@dmshot48]

Nothing to say, but thanks
