Oxidizing Agents and Reducing Agents

- We'll learn about oxidizing agents and reducing agents, what they are, what they do, and how to identify them in chemical equations. Oxidizing agents make oxidation happen, and reducing agents make oxidation happen. And oxidizing agent takes electrons from something, allowing it to be oxidized, and a reducing agents gives electrons to something, allowing it to be reduced. You can remember this by noting that the thing that is reduced is the oxidizing agent, and the thing that is oxidized is the reducing agent. We'll then look at some equations and identify the oxidizing and reducing agents. To do this, we have to write oxidation numbers (or oxidation states) for the elements in the equation, and then figure out how electrons are moving, what is being oxidized and what is being reduced.
Goal: I want to be as happy as him while doing chemistry
Omg, sameeeee😭
As a chemist I agree most chem majors are there because they love chem.
omfg yesssss
omg same
So are you now?
Instead of using fancy terms, he uses simple words to define something complicated. That's what makes him a great teacher. Hats off!!!
🎉
This guy has 537,000 subscribers right? So if we all gave this guy $2.00 we'd make him a millionaire. Who's with me? Tyler DeWitt has bailed me out time after time...he deserves it!
529k
Clicking on one of the ads on this video gives him $1, it’s annoying but it helps! Thanks man this is great!
He definitely deserve👍🏻
I am totally agree with you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! he's a genius professor who made me understand something who after years i didn't understandt...
now 652k......just awesome
I might as well start calling you Professor DeWitt because you're so much more useful than all the fools that are supposed to "teach" me.
*Indeed*
***** I pay attention in class. I pay attention to these fools. The problem is that they can't teach, and we, students, suffer from their incompetence... and must rely on the help of people like Tyler to pass THEIR classes.
***** I was mostly speaking from a personal perspective. I've been attentive in class all my life, and sometimes that attention is in vain because no matter how much effort you put in succeeding in a subject, you won't get anywhere with an incompetent instructor. Maybe you're right about students not paying attention in class, I'm just saying that it's not the case for every student, just like it isn't the case for me. Sometimes (often), the teacher's to blame.
A.M. Huchard Some people might disagree with you but I *Agree*
Mr. Dewitt is perfectly appropriate for today's student. I am not saying he isn't excellent at what he does, but many students nowadays are lazy and want to be spoon fed. When most American students can't tell you where Canada is, how are they to learn Chemistry? Mr Dewitt is perfect at spoon feeding - it is in fact a gift.
Chemistry lesson couldn't teach me, you taught me in 15 minutes. Thank you.
sameeeee
I didn't even knew what Chemistry is because I'm not attending my classes lol
Thanks to Tyler I have learned a lot while chilling in my chair
I’m too embarrassed to mention how many years of post-graduate education I have; I’ve always struggled with the meaning of “oxidized” vs. “oxidizing agent”, and “reduced” vs. “ reducing agent”. Everything else I know has had to tiptoe around this void in my head. I think I finally get it! Thanks, Professor!
This person has explained me the toughest part in just 15 minutes which no teacher in my life could ever explain in a whole year .
Hiii
Hats off!
I’ve accepted the fact that you are my teacher. Idk who the random guy is when i go to school. You are my teacher.
lol same. I'm in honors chem and our teacher sometimes does not explain and then makes really hard tests and expects us to ace them.
@@leslieah7060 offff I understand you. I take chemistry A with worst teacher ever and she is strict when it comes to marking. so I gave up on chemistry.
You are the best chemistry teacher I could ever ask for. Thank you SO much for these videos. They are saving my grades.
you were so smiley in this video, which was making me smile, even though I shouldn't be smiling and should be worried about my exam which is in 5 hours and thank you for lecture it was really helpful
i too felt he kept smiling a lot in this one.
how did you do
Hope the exam was great!?
Me too
it’s been 3 years howd you do xd
GEROA and LEORA.
GEROA - Gains Electrons is Reduction and is the Oxidizing Agent
LEORA - Loses Electrons is Oxidation and is the Reduction Agent.
Hope that helps, everyone! :)
+Angel Flaviano (Miki) Hey dude, this mnemonic helps bunchez. Glad I came across it! Appreciate ya.
Oxidizing agent do oxidation and it got reduction
Thank u man..I really owe you....god bless u...
this is wae better than rig and oil,bless you mate! ❤
LEO the lion says GER
You make me understand everything sooooooo easily that it becomes a piece of cake!!! I highly recommen your channel it's the best!!! Hats off to you
♥️
you teach me more in 15 minutes than my teacher in a bunch of classes, thank you so much!
who more are in 2020?
Me🤘🏻
Which grade??
Me from 2021
I'm here because my professor links these videos in his lectures. Some would call it lazy, but I like that it's there since people learn differently and sometimes a different explanation is what you need to get it to stick. Thanks to my prof, and thanks to you for being so thorough.
If he was my teacher i would be studying happily ever after.
The amount of happiness he has explaining chemistry to us is actually inspiring just that smile though lol. Not my expression in chemistry for sure...
Army saranghae 💜 I know I am here to learn chemistry but I can’t control!
@@mansoordurrani280 I love that army are always finding each other saranghe!!!!
Hannah Abraham it’s because they are present in every part of world 😂
@@mansoordurrani280 very true love how we are having thisn BTS convo under a chemistry video
Hannah Abraham 😂😂 armies and bts are big cracks including me. Even suga stans😂
U Explained what noone could explain to me clearly. And also i like ur style of cutting and pasting the papers. 👍
They are very nicely written and neatly arrangement
You deserve some type of national recognition...
Who else thinks that this man is better than our teachers?... actually not only. Better....the best!!😊
Hats off to u sir ....🎉
these videos are amazing! whenever I'm confused about anything in my college chem class, I go straight to these videos for clarification! literal life saver :D
HI IM PATEL TOO
Man....are all the people who come outta MIT this good....
God Bless you Tyler for creating all these beautiful lecture videos!
Your expression when you explain these concepts shows how much you enjoy Chemistry; a person can only be a "good" teacher when that person enjoys the things that he/she teaches.
TH-cam and the people who uploads these kinds of videos are Gods gift to humanity!
Dude, you just gain my respect. Your effort in making those just to be understandable by the viewers is.... Just wow. Thank you ❤️
You made him gain respect, so you're the respecting agent
When I sit in a class for an hour and a half accepting I'm gonna fail my test until I learned it in 15 min. Thank you.
thank u tyler sir .....
we students pay huge fees and go u some big university to learn ....bt there the teachers r so impatient and the just believe in finishing the portion ...it doesnt matter whether the student has understood it or nt ....shame on them
bt u r providing us valuable and priceless knowledge for free ...hats off to u sir ...
i believe within few years students with only go to university for writing paper n they would learn everything from youtube at their own pace ....i believe we should donate a huge amount and provide it to u ...u r taking so much efforts ....those who agree hit like
once again thank u sir may good bless u with happy and prosperous life :)

Clear and helpful, as usual. Great work Tyler DeWitt
i didnt believe the comments until i saw this lecture. He is such a great teacher, i had been struggling for so long
Love how Tyler was pleased with himself with his 'movie star - agent' analogy
Who else is founding tyler videos useful in 2021
I'm acing my chem class thanks to this Titan! Just seeing how much he enjoys chemistry makes me want to watch more vids. I've watched way more Tyler videos than is being covered in my class!
Looking at the how neat his teaching is
I can clearly predict his reaction when he sees my room
you are a legend
no he is mythic
Ya'll wrong he's Mythical Glory
Great work!! I love the fact that you explain in such a simple way. Indian TH-camrs basically explain these concepts by ripping the explanations out of the text books line by line (which I have and considered not sufficient and need more help sometimes), so they aren't helping.
But you brake it down to bite size informations, which we can grasp so easily. Love your work. Please keep at it.
Thank you for what you do! You're making a huge difference by helping students actually understand things better. Unfortunately, professors are extremely lazy today and skip a lot of important information. These videos help out tremendously.
Your videos are fascinating🤩💥, you made my lesson more easier 😊
Greetings from EGYPT 🇪🇬👋
You Sir are brilliant educator. You literaly made it possible for anyone with a gram of interest and an internet connection to learn Chemistry. This world owes you bigtime!
You are seriously the most helpful person on TH-cam. I wish you had videos for absolutely every concept in chemistry! Thank you!
You should teach teachers how to teach 😂
you are my favorite person in the world !! thank you so much for this video
Mate, I'm 35 and for the first time ever, thanks to you, this stuff actually makes sense!! I am no longer freaking out about having to do chemistry as part of my degree! THANK YOU!!
I am from Bhutan. Just letting you know how widely your clear explanations of these complicated rules are flooding around the globe.
Bro, you’ve seriously helped me through this semester. My professor (God bless him) has a horrible teaching style. Haven’t learned anything from him.
since when i started chemistry i haven't understood a thing but tyler has helped me so much thanks bro
I watched your vids when I was in highschool. Now, I came back to review for my upcoming licensure examination. Without you, chemistry will be arduous to me. Thank you man, you're still a legend.
The best way ever say a teacher taught a student.
This video is very useful in this pandamic Corona virus. Brilliant going.
You explain really well! Thank you so much! I'm so glad I found your channel before my Finals!😂
im not one to like videos or log in to comment.....but damn, you couldnt have dumbed it down more. i loved it.
You're videos have been saving my life for years. First in high school chemistry, and now in college chemistry. I've been sending links to your videos to my classmates and they are so relieved to watch your easy to follow content. Thanks for being such a good teacher :)
OMG!!!!!!!! How do you get that so easily???
I mean really, I couldn't understand a thing when my teacher taught me this...
A.M. Huchard is actually right, we might as well call you Professor DeWitt...
I spent hours on this before I just searched it, YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER. I actually aced this chapter in the exam with your help.
My teacher was surprised that a person who failed in this chapter actually scored full marks
THANK YOU VERY MUCH...
:);)
How can I even thank u !!!😭❤️❤️❤️ crystal clear in this topic..thank you so much
I lose my mind when my lecturers give lecture about chemistry, but now I'm glad I found the one❤️
As an Honors Chemistry student who's teacher simply reads from a PowerPoint copied from a textbook I thank you for your work. I have learned more from your videos which are only a few minutes long compared to an hour and a half worth of instruction from a PowerPoint.
Tyler, you popped up on my page! Never said THANKS for feeling me get through Chem classes. You’ve helped so many, you’re a legend. Cheers!
I wish my chem teacher was like you...amazingly explained💕
Yes
Borahae💜
Thank you sir...you have helped me by solving my doubt ... I was totally confused but bcoz of uh my doubt is cleared... thanks
Love from India❤
I'm too an indian
You have to write a chemistry book, your explanation is too great, and beyond what those teachers are giving.
YESS
Watched every video about this subject for my chemistry test tomorrow... covered EVERYTHING we learned in class. Thanks for the easy to understand and thorough explanations!!
I love you, now I am not going to fail my class.
THANKS FROM INDIA.....
I am also from lndia
🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
I'm also from India😀
🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Your videos are very helpful for studying for my AP Chem exam! You're like Crash Course but you go a step beyond. Thanks!
This 15-minute vid made me understand something my teacher couldn't in a 2- hour class. Kudos to you man.
these videos are so helpful! thanks and love from AUSTRALIA :D
You are very very good Sir
Nishit Patel wut
Kelly are u from Australia or Japan??
I must admit, your video was exceptionally clear on the explanation of redox, however, you didn't mention the imbalance of Nitrogen (N) going from +5 to +2, that would mean -3 gain of electrons occurred to the Nitrogen on the right hand side, additionally you didn't mention balancing the equation, I have a feeling you did this for simplification purpose's however, it has confused me a little now haha, if you could comment to clear it up I would really appreciate it.
I am probably waaay too late, but the reason for the imbalance of electrons is because the equation is unbalanced. The balanced equation is 2HNO3 + 3H2S > 3S + 2NO + 4H2O
@Juliana Sepulveda im not understanding anything
@Juliana Sepulveda there is an important test coming for getting admission in med school
.. im preparing for that😓
You make this understandable! I was so worried i was going to fail chemistry which would hurt my life in every aspect, until a classmate recommended one of your videos, and I’ve learned everything I need to fo my exam through you, thank you! Because of covid-19 and everything switching to online/remote learning this will really help! You’re defiantly a legend
Seriously ur lecturer z ... Haz been spread upto telugu n tamil regions...!!! Uh teach so well ...!!! N cmplte vidout adding any useless thngz... Clear n straight concept... Itz lovely to get to knw abut uh...
i love how youtube videos teach me more than college professors that are paid to teach
I don't see a ring on your finger.... 😎
Sameeee
And he's too cute on top of that..... Almost looks like Daniel Radcliffe
OH NO
@@malevolentthedragon FBI open up
LMFAO
Wow I never comment on any TH-cam video I learn from but you are the far best I've ever seen. You break it down and explain it so easily true life saver. Thank you for simplifying you are now my chemistry professor lol your the best !
This guy is gonna be who saves me for my chem exam today
Love from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Hey! Can you make a video about radioactivity? I'm having trouble understanding it.
Its really easy.
This was so helpful! I was so confused about redox reactions 15 mins ago and now I'm good to go for my exam in a few hours. Thank you!
You do not know how much you helped me. You helped me by passing my last semester and now you're helping me pass this semester.
dude I never even thought of it like that lmao my teacher made this a lot more complicated then would just throw questions at us
Did anyone sleep while watching...it's so relaxing!
Thank you very much for all your videos, sir! How I wish I had a Chemistry teacher like you back in my high school to realize how fun chemistry actually is! All I can do now is to recommend you to my brothers and some friends who are still learning chemistry. I hope you inspire more students and even other teachers as well! :)
The only video on TH-cam that helped me understand this topic in just few minutes
Too good so good
liked before watching
I’m failing chem but your videos are a significant help. You make me feel so smart this stuff really isn’t that hard I just needed someone to break down the steps so that I could comprehend better
Dayum u taught me better than my chemistry professor AND HOW ARE U SO CALM WHILE DOING CHEMISTRY??. I could never.
i have a question.just how do u know that nitrofen has a +5 electron?
Because when you follow the rules for hydrogen and oxygen you get (+1H) and (+6O), but remember since it is a neutral equation it has to =0. Therefore you make Nitrogen +5 and the equation goes like this: +1 + +5=6 -6=0
jordy gomez i have absolutely no idea what that means.
"They just can't chuck them into space." lol
One of the best chemistry teacher I've ever seen in my life, I'm learning chemistry with a smile on my face just because of you sir.
Love from India!🥰❤️
Though corona haunts us, we'll never stop reading.. from India 😊 hats off to this great man.
can you please make a video on quantum numbers please
"reducing IT" & "oxidizing IT"!
If you can just be explicit instead of using "IT" your video would move from good to great. Thanks!
+Napo Mokoetle My videos are already better than great. ;)
+Tyler DeWitt thug life😂😉
+Tyler DeWitt u r right
Your videos are really good already, but this is overestimation oO
Tyler DeWitt 😅😅why arent you making new videos
our teacher discussed this in just one meeting and i ddnt understand anything. Always thought this topic should be explained one by one and slowly. I was right. Thank you so much!
You are an amazing teacher! Thank you so much! Chemistry is not my strong suit, so I really appreciate you taking the time to create these videos and making chemistry not so difficult. Also, love your enthusiasm and attitude. Blessings.
I know he is teaching chemistry
It always looks like a mystery
But ..If I learn it..it will be a history........how's my lame rhyme people....?cheer me up...lol😅👻
Hey fellow army👋
Just drop a like if students come up here for help even in 2024
You are just awesome.I don't think anyone can explain like you do.If a person like you will teach in my city,he would become a millionaire.Students here in my city are in need of people like you.And it would be awesome if you upload Organic chemistry(Basic knowledge).Love from India.
Read my book to understand this concept, but was unable to. Just watched your video and I'm ready for the test. THANKS!
Fuck my life.
same.
GamePhysics i feel you fam
me
WHAT?? ur mic was weird in this one
SuperDude214 your ears are weard
Shahid Khan your spelling is weird
Your username is weird XD
It was off
You are truly a CHEMISTRY GENIOUS. I have never had so much fun studying chemistry. You made the topic which was almost impossible for me to understand so easy. Really admire you. Thanks😊
We need more teachers like you. Thank u so much
I'm form India. Your lectures are too much good as compaired to my professor. Mostly you represented all the complicated things in a very simple way.. 🙏🙏🙏.again so much thank you
WORTH WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS..........................THE CONCEPTS WHICH I WAS NOT ABLE TO UNDERSTAND FROM 2 OR 3 YEARS YOU MADE ME UNDERSTAND IN MINUTES.............HATS OFF!!!............KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK SIR!!!..........THANKS A LOT!!!!!
Wow man you are the savior of my chemistry grades. Thank you so much you deserve way more subs than you have. Keep it up Tyler 👍🏼
you are so patient your videos are gold ...Thanks you would be the best professor on campus
