    I want to personally let Hank know, if these videos came out while I was in highschool, I think i would have become a molecular biologist...
    While i may have not gone down this career path, i know WITHOUT A DOUBT you inspire many kids to reach a level of academic competence they would have not attempted with out you.
    Hank, thank you for the amount of work you do. I notice you do virtually all of the writing for the show, and you explain things is such a relaxed normal no stress manor..
    Thanks again!

    How to distinguish between cations and anions:
    -Cations start with CAT, cats = positivity and happiness. A functional household cannot be without a cat.
    -Anions start with An. You know what else starts with An? ANXIETY! ANOREXIA! An sentence like this makes me uncomfortable. So much negativity.

    @JimGriffOne 9 ปีที่แล้ว +65

    The prefix "Per" actually comes from the word "hyper", which is the opposite of "hypo". They remove the "hy" from "per" because many people confuse hyper with hypo. When using "per" and "hypo", it is more difficult to confuse one with the other.

    The IUPAC names for acids are even crazier. Chlorous acid (HClO2) is hydridodioxidochlorine. Sulphuric acid (H2SO4) is dihydroxidodioxidosulphur. Basically hydrogens bonded to the central atom are hydrido, OH's are hydroxido and oxygens are oxido. As weird as this way of naming is it actually represents structure and the properties really well.

    @Grimeaper 10 ปีที่แล้ว +16

    I have learned something about myself and that is I am weird. Even though this video exist and it hurts my brain, and even though I do not like math. I love the idea of going to college and majoring in mechanical engineer, and minoring in chemistry. I must like torture, both of these seem hard as balls, but there is something magical about them that draws me to them. My brain may explode by the end of college when I go back but it will be worth a try.

    • @Grimeaper
      @Grimeaper 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Roy Fresh It isn't that I hate math (I always word things wrong) for some reason I have a mental block on it. I love the idea of learning the math I do I mean it gives you the ability to predict a lot of stuff. It will be extra hard for me, but I figured out how to work around it. I need to see the math worked out in real life like what can you use it for, I don't know how come but when I watched a video of how you would use some formula I forgot now sadly but it clicked my brain said yeah I got this, but if you throw a book at me and expect me to learn it on my own my brain doesn't want to do it that way. When I was in college the first time they threw a book at us basically and said you have to do it out of the book and do it online. They basically threw you into the deep end of the pool and expected you to swim, and the only way I could learn it was via youtube videos, the book never works for me. I honestly think I have it, it will be difficult but I think I do, once I go back to college and get beyond speech class I will make math my bitch. What do you think of masters in mechanical engineer and minoring in chemistry?

    • @Grimeaper
      @Grimeaper 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Roy Fresh I know it will be balls hard but I drool at the prospect of learning it (literally). The only obstacle I really truly face is the speech class. I have been out of college myself I will be about 28 or so when I go back if life events doesn't stop me from going back. What I really hate is that I live in the capital of my state in a big city and the colleges around here do not have what I need, and these are some major colleges. I have to travel over an hour to get to a college that will do. I am glad I completed some college work before having to quit. Hell when I was originally going to college I wasn't sure what I wanted to do I just went for the fun of it to see if I was smart at all. I quit with a 3.7 gpa so I guess I was kinda smart. Right now events in my life are not so great to say the least so going to college may not happen which pisses me off because I really really want to go. I think I might even be ready for speech class, I mean I used to not comment much and now I feel like bruce lee with the comment wars that surround me and well if I can improve to the point of being able to comment on stuff and have people attack me all at once and be able to win per se I think I can do speech. I got into an argument with someone and I dragged him through the mud, and he had a masters in science education talked with a friend and he was an 11th grade biology teacher I am not going to lie that gave my ego a boost. 8th grade drop out over here, G.E.D diploma and at most a year of college and I did that, I always wanted to hand a teachers ass to him on a silver platter but never thought I would have the chance, much less one so high on the food chain, but I found out through my ex wife that being a teacher does not mean you are smart she was as dumb as a bag of bricks, and he made my jaw drop in awe of his stupidity. Sorry the latter was unnecessary but I think that also helped me realize my potential, then there is a debate with bill nye and richard dawkins and so and so forth I call it the gather of the great minds that helped me, and then there is a lot of people calling me smart (including an outside source a professor of mine) all the time so I decided why not. My goal which is laughable is to somehow go to the moon or mars and maybe bring back a few moon rocks (or martian rocks of course after nasa examines them), my mom said I better bring her some back if I go to the moon lol. I have my life planned out for after college I have issues with planning stuff out. I was wanting to work with nasa for a while pay stuff off and go to the moon, and eventually go into what I call leisure work life where I become a freelance mechanical engineer that way I work around my schedule, even have a website concept down. Oy vey I really need to stop with these rants, I never used to like writing much less now but I never seem to make anything short when it comes to writing.

      @Grimeaper 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Roy Marth I just dove into a robotics class online that is free man did I jump into the pool with the sharks and alligators. I am doing physics which they expect me to know calculus for which lead me to learn a lot of calculus in 3 days which still may not suffice I haven't even finished algebra courses. I did decent though I made a 60 on my first test and besides this is not a certificate class so I earn nothing but knowledge which is good enough for me albeit there is no place around where I live to continue robotics so this is all I will ever learn from a school about robotics. I have to say my brain hurts from it but I am slowly getting it. I had to learn trig which was not hard well the part I learned the soh cah toa and it was fun. Also mechanical engineering turns out not to be what I wanted sorry never went through with it, but am going to do technical school soon and do a bunch of different course to get the skills I wanted. Mechanical engineering after a lot of studying up on it you do nothing that I want to do with it in fact you do not even use the math that you learn half the time it disappointed me but at least I found out. You are most of the time a glorified paper pusher who is also a scapegoat well in a lot of cases and you barely use pre algebra even though you learn some really really difficult stuff.

    I usually refrain from saying "I learned more here than I did in class" because, realistically, these are afterall crash course series posted for ten minutes once a week instead of every day for 90 minutes. But in this case, this video did help me understand the use of some of the prefixes and suffixes for acids better than my AP Chem class did, so thank you for that :D

    Crash Course Team: Have you thought about compiling a list of FAQs that follow the release of each episode so that in the event that a teacher wants to use your videos as a lecture replacement they could plan activities to address the FAQs? Perhaps a forum would be a better net to catch questions in, and perhaps have volunteers help answer questions. (I would definitely volunteer my time to answering ppl's Qs and helping to develop a FAQ for each episode. Btw, I'm a chemistry teacher.)

    I am a math and science tutor for an easily distracted student and when I can't be there and she gets stuck I send her links to these videos. They are so great because the topic I am looking for has always been covered. Plus the way Hank explains it is easy to follow and interesting it so she doesn't get bored and loose focus. Thank you so much!

    I am confused. my mother tongue is German, the German dialect of Chemistrian is a bit different than the English one. And as do understand a bit of French and Dutch, I prefer the rainy meadow in Belgium.

    Our chem teacher taught us the difference between positively and negatively charged ions by explaining that cations are "PAW-sitive." (He said it's because he lost a bet with a teacher friend of his and now must teach it like that every year.)
    I don't think any of us will ever forget that. xD

    im 17, starting my sophomore year of college, and I've never taken a chemistry class...until now. and yes, i am very PERplexed, especially with the process of naming the elements and etc. this table was VERY helpful, so i am very grateful to Hank. but just to solidify the information, i was wondering if anyone had the links to any other helpful videos or sites? any help would be appreciated!

      The numbers people use today were invented by Arabs :) same as most aspects of algebra and physics. They also discovered most aspects of medicine and they were one of the first people to introduce the number 0 before that people just called it nothing, they also dissected the eye and made a camera model very close to the one you use today on your smartphone so yeah do your research about the Islamic golden age and don't get too lost when you hear the word Arab.
