I've seen many explanations of this online, but yours is by far the best. I'm a teacher myself, but also a learner, so I really appreciate your efforts. Pity so very few views. Keep on keepin' on! Thanks.
I loved when you overlapped the images of the different models, that really cleared up the concept well. This was a truly incredible revision video! Will share it with my friends. Thank you so much.
After crying over chemistry homework all week because every explanation I have found about this has been punishingly complicated, THANK YOU. This was exactly what I needed, in plain and understandable language. I just needed someone to say THESE ARE WHAT MAKE UP SINGLE, DOUBLE, and TRIPLE bonds.
@@pigeonlove Didn't you read? They are literally "FVKING CRYING RIGHT NOW!!!!" so how're they supposed to see what they're typing through the tears unless it's CAPITALIZED? Just a joke obv ;)
Literally.. You know, organic chemistry is a MAJOR disqualifer in potential medical school students? If a student gets a letter grade of a "C" through even a "B," they may be out of the running for entry into medical school? Also, with the constant pressure and expectation of high marks/grades, which some students cannot achieve, they may commit suicide. So this video is as you say, "saving lives.." Then again, this topic wasn't as hard. I understood it when I was taught it due to an excellent instructor and his method of delivering the material...
I always come back to this video. It explains literally _everything_ related to the topic, and does a *good* job at getting the point across. If I didn't watch this I doubt I would've grasped the hybridization concept, which is notoriously difficult for students studying it for the first time...So thank you for making this! ^__^
I just started an online biochem course and this was the first thing they covered.. I was so lost even after watching a different crash course chemistry video, but then I found this one, and particularly the start of this vid did a GREAT job explaining exactly what hybridisation is and how it works! Thanks heaps!
I've struggled with hybridization and orbitals for a while now, despite multiple lectures and reading texts. For some reason these videos just clicked with me. On behalf of my OChem grade, THANK YOU!
I've taken general chemistry in high school, college and am now reviewing it for the MCAT. I have never fully understood this concept until this video - so satisfying! Thank you!
I missed the class when this was taught, and have been so confused ever since, I had absolutely no clue what hybridization even was. This was so incredibly helpful, it all makes so much sense now. Thank you so much for the great video!
It’s finals season and it is no exaggeration to say you’ve helped me understand this exam so, SO much better. This is a topic where visualization is VERY MUCH NEEDED and a lot of people dont do that to the near extent this video does. Explained it extremely well with slow steps so I never felt behind. thank you so so much
I've watched probably a thousand or so other videos and read online articles about hybridization and I desperately wish that I had seen this one first. It answered so many other questions that other videos caused me to ask from the confusion they caused me by not being as clear or thorough as you!!!!! (I'm about to overelaborate and include a lot of timestamps so when I inevitably forget something I can come back here and immediately go to a reference point!) I had the hardest time visualizing a pi bond as two separate areas and this video made it a little more clearer about how it is a single bond that the electrons can move between (7:29) (I couldn't get over the node in the p orbital where there's no chance of electrons being found so I couldn't understand how electrons were moving within the two areas between each lobe of the p orbital! This helped with that by simply showing that they can exist in either area at any time(7:21)) and I significantly appreciate the effort taken to show how the models were changing, like at 4:25, 4:47, and 5:20 because it's very easy to get lost with 3D models. 10:17 makes me want to cry bc it's clarity is so beautiful!!!!!!!! And I spent so long trying to figure out why water was hybridized because it always thought CH4 hybridized solely to make space for four bonds, but in water, the oxygen already had space for the two bonds with hydrogens, so the experimental explanation (1:35) and equal force explanation (3:48) (even though the lone pairs in water make it a little less equal (aaaaaaaaa)) at the beginning was helpful for understanding the real purpose of hybridization. It's awful how long I stared at my ball and stick model of H2O trying to figure out how this bent shape was considered tetrahedral and googling and watching so many videos trying to figure it out. If only I saw this first
Thank you for explaining especially how the naming of the hybrid orbitals come from. It's really great to see a thorough explanation. It's great that you take the time to explain something that others omit because it may seem obvious to other teachers/channels teaching chimistry.
I'm an AP Chem teacher andd this by far one of the best ones I've seen. You have GREAT animations that are going to be super helpful in distance learning.
This is so awesome. I understood from beginning to end, something sorely missing than the other vids I looked at. Very clear, and your illustrations really nailed it. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally! The best and well explained video about Hybrid Orbitals!!! Everything makes much more sense when it is presented using 3D figures. Thank you so much, Sir!
omg it all clicks now. Been watching molecular bond theory/hybridization vids for an hour now and I was still confused until this. You are SUPERIOR. the rest of the videos need to get on this guys level... energy level
I've been scouring youtube to help me understand hybridization but I've never had it explained to me so clearly before. Thank you sir, you may have just saved my midterm grade yet
Really well done 👏 The graphics are perfect. I think I finally understand the why of sp1, sp2, and sp3. Wish I'd found this video a year ago. Thank you!!!
This is the best explanation on this topic ever. I swear I didn't understand a thing in my school. 5 years after my high school (i.e today) I have come across your tutorial for an entrance test preparation and boom !!! All of a sudden EVERYTHING IS STARTING TO MAKE SENSE. THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR. YOU ARE THE MESSIAH FOR ME.
By far the best explanation of this complex concept, It's one of those ideas you can't really understand from a textbook the Diagrams were legendary. I've seen on this site. Will definitely recommend you to my peers.
I have wasted my entire day looking for a video that would clear this subject up a bit, and then I found your explanation and boy oh boy IS IT TRULY AMAZING!!!!!!!
Hey I just wanted to say thank you so much! I had tried every other square inch of the internet to understand this concept (including asking ai programs 😅) but here it was laid out perfectly. Thank you so much for finally allowing me to understand this! You are doing the world a service
You have a great way of explaining this AND a great visualization tool. Conceptualizing has been my biggest hurdle in chemistry so far, but this video was a great help! Checking out your other videos now. Thank you so much! The stress has been killin me!
I never thought I could grasp the actual concept behind hybridization but this presentation was just astonishing. Thanks to youtube for actually recommending something useful.
I got a headache watching this video. I have never been explained this concept so perfectly. Thank you. Thank you very very very much. I can not possibly explain or emphasize how grateful I am for you putting so much energy and explaining it so perfectly. If you happened to be around LA. Shoot me a text I'll buy you two rounds of beer 🍺. You are the best. Thank you.
I just love your pace of explanation, you're the only person who made me understand this, visualisation is key, thank you for dedicating your time into this video :")
I love you sir. You've saved one uni student spicous about the mechanism of hybridization since sec1. My life was wasted before watching this video. Why did I found this crystal now. :( The world should enact to show this video to every sec1 student who takes the first step of learning hybridization. Thank you my saver.
It is thanks to you that i finally understood it after 2 days!!! Thanks for the N and O examples! Other videos and articles are not helpful at all, you are my hero
Thank you so much , every other video would skip around and not explain everything simply i’ve been watching for hours and im finally starting to understand
Crash Chemistry Academy Haha I didn't know that😆😆 Anyways sir, I had a doubt, wonder if you you could help me with it~ 10:42 why does the *2s* combine with the *2p* since the former is already filled and will not be able to form any bonds? Why does it still combine with the 2p to form a hybrid orbital?
The hybrid model was developed to account for certain molecular characteristics such as bond angles, bonding pair energy, and three dimensional placement of atoms in a molecule. The hybridization in this case serves to explain the bond angle in ammonia being close to 109.5 degrees. This would not occur without hybridization, meaning the hydrogen bonding would occur with p orbitals, which are 90 degrees apart, while four hybrid orbitals are 109.5 degrees apart, thus the hydrogens are bonding to hybrid orbitals. Hope that makes sense!
I’m commenting for the you know what because this video was actually sooo well done that it’s like not even funny. There’s a lot of fluff in comment sections but I say with all genuineness that the maker of this video did a stellar job, all bases covered.
God bless you and your family for generations to come... After months of confusion, I finally see clarity in my head. The piercing light of clarity radiates from my mind towards the medulla oblongata.
OMG. I`m a second-year biotech student, and FINALLY, I UNDERSTOOD THIS STUFF. I love that Mr. Crash explained it so simply, without all fancy words. My tutors are so furious that I don`t get all chemical names and that I can`t remember such basic things, and okay, sorry, it`s hard for me to get everything oral, I need pictures and simple words. THAT`S ALL I`M ASKING FOR. SO THAAAAANK YOOOOOUUUUU SOOOOOO MUUUUCHHH!!!!
This video is an absolute godsend. Maybe the algorithm saw me struggling to understand poorly made videos on hybrid orbitals and took pity on me. Thank you for making this video.
I am a chemistry teacher of many years and I started flipping my classroom after a virtual year 2020, and this is the topic students struggle a lot with, and your video mirrors how I would like to teach it PLUS all the great visuals. Simply awesome. - and BTW I keep finding your excellent videos on a variety of topics I need as the year goes, and just like this one they are incredibly clear and helpful. Great microscopic representations of many concepts! Thank you!
A slight error towards the end of this otherwise outstanding video. NH3 and H20 do not posses strictly tetrahedral geometry; rather the former has trigonal pyramidal while the latter has a bent( V-shaped) geometry.
I think technically including the lone pairs they both have tetrahedral geometry, however looking at only the bonded parts makes the shape trigonal pyramidal and bent.
If you really want to be picky, note that they are not strictly tetrahedral even accounting for the lone pairs, as lone pairs are 'fatter' in the VSEPR model, thus 'take up more space' and the bond angle between the two H's in H20 is reduced to about 109 degrees, as opposed to 120.
@@chuanli7526 shouldn't the bond angles already be 109 degrees (109.5*) in a tetrahedral molecule? 120 degree bond angles pertain to trigonal planar geometries.
OH MY WORD!!! THANK YOU so much. This is the best explanation video I have ever seen!!! for hybridization...Thank you thank you thank you!! I have been teaching this now for 15 years and I explain until I can not explain anymore but still have students struggling...your voice, speed, and animations are brilliant! Thank you thank you thank you....did I mention thank you???
understanding orbitals and bonds makes the periodic table from a random set to a master piece of perfection. every element is where it shoudl be. and it all make sence.
I’ve been through so many websites, textbooks and videos and this is literally the only one that concisely explained WHY hybridization is a thing. I was thinking it had to do with the amount if electrons needed to bond or whatnot when it had more to do with energy!! Thank you so much, I finally got to feel like lightbulb when this concept clicked and I’m so happy!
Oh god, i’m seeing the light with this video. No where did my teacher explain the link between pi bond orbital shape and the unhybridized orbital shape. Everything make so much sense now….
It is interesting that these topics (including atomic orbitals) are often not taught from an energy perspective. The Schrodinger equation, which describes the quantum mechanical (orbitals) model, is an energy equation, showing how to derive the total energy (PE + KE) of an electron, resulting in what the space is that an electron with that particular amount of energy will occupy. While that certainly is a simplification, it is the essential nature of the equation, and so too, therefore, are how electrons involved in bonding can be described-- it is their energy that dictates the space they occupy in the bond, although the math required to figure that out is 1000x more complex than Schrodinger's, and, to my knowledge, only supercomputers of recent vintage have enough power to crunch all the variables.
@@CrashChemistryAcademy so sir u mean that u don't get enough revenue from TH-cam to run a organisation of 100 people ?? So sad , sometimes worthy things aren't given much attention .
Wow, just wow. I have spent so many hours trying to get my head around the idea of hybridisation from my professors notes and this is the best explanation I have had yet. The explanation is crystal clear and the models and orbital diagrams have helped so much to better my understanding of this! Thank you so much!
Wow! I never thought I would understand the existence of pi bonds with unhybridized p orbitals, but you, sir, have proven me wrong. Thank you for the amazing demonstration! I'm sure your videos will come in handy when I start college next year!
I just watched your Hydrogen emission spectra video (the most coherent & informative of the dozens of its type I've studied on TH-cam) and thought I'd check this out as hybridization is another tricky topic; and you go and do it again, another masterpiece! I'm in awe of your ability to bring these concepts to life and to proactively address the questions that an intelligent & engaged student will likely raise.
I've watched several hybridization theory videos today and your video tanks them all. Your graphics and explanations of small things really makes all the difference. Like 2sp3 - I was wondering how the name was derived - thank you!!
I was always somewhat iffy on this topic and now everything has been made super clear. You move at a perfect pace with such succinctness . Thank you kind sir!
I am currently reviewing Orgo 1 in preparations for Orgo 2 next year. And Sir, you are doing an incredible job. I have been struggling with chemistry for a long time. It was just by chance that I came across your video and let me write that for the first time I am finally able to grasp the concept of the hybridization theory more in dept. You are a talented individual who has been born to teach scientific concepts. Thank you for making this video!
This actually answered every single question I had about this topic, which I didn't think was possible because I was SO freaking confused. Thank you for making this video what the heck

The Schrodinger equation, which describes the quantum mechanical (orbitals) model, is an energy equation, showing how to derive the total energy (PE + KE) of an electron, resulting in what the space is that an electron with that particular amount of energy will occupy. While that certainly is a simplification, it is the essential nature of the equation, and so too, therefore, are how electrons involved in bonding can be described-- it is their energy that dictates the space they occupy in the bond, although the math required to figure that out is 1000x more complex than Schrodinger's, and, to my knowledge, only supercomputers of recent vintage have enough power to crunch all the variables.
This is by far the best video on valence bond theory I’ve come across. Nicely done with plently of examples and great visuals.
Thanks!
keep going , this video had the best explanation that I had found on the TH-cam. I'm now totally clear .
I am keeping it going, but it's slow. I need maybe 100 people for a production team.
@@CrashChemistryAcademy so sir u mean that u don't get enough revenue from TH-cam to run a organisation of 100 people ?? So sad , sometimes worthy things aren't given much attention .

I finally understand pi and sigma bonds after being confused for so long. You are a savior!!!
I finally get it after, like, watching ten other clips about orbital hybridization from other people. THANK YOU!!
Wow, just wow. I have spent so many hours trying to get my head around the idea of hybridisation from my professors notes and this is the best explanation I have had yet. The explanation is crystal clear and the models and orbital diagrams have helped so much to better my understanding of this! Thank you so much!
👍 Thanks!
genuinely one of the only videos that helped me with hybridization in orgo
Wow! I never thought I would understand the existence of pi bonds with unhybridized p orbitals, but you, sir, have proven me wrong. Thank you for the amazing demonstration! I'm sure your videos will come in handy when I start college next year!
Great!!
This video absolutely saved my life because I had no idea what hybridization was about until now. I can't thank you enough sir
THANK YOU!! Finally, a video that explains what and why hybrid orbitals exist!
This is the best video on youtube explaining hybrid orbitals. So detailed and breaks everything down so it's easy to see and comprehend. Thank you!
I just watched your Hydrogen emission spectra video (the most coherent & informative of the dozens of its type I've studied on TH-cam) and thought I'd check this out as hybridization is another tricky topic; and you go and do it again, another masterpiece! I'm in awe of your ability to bring these concepts to life and to proactively address the questions that an intelligent & engaged student will likely raise.
Thank you so much for your kind words. Something to keep me going with making videos. It is much appreciated.
I've watched several hybridization theory videos today and your video tanks them all. Your graphics and explanations of small things really makes all the difference. Like 2sp3 - I was wondering how the name was derived - thank you!!
You're welcome!!
I was always somewhat iffy on this topic and now everything has been made super clear. You move at a perfect pace with such succinctness . Thank you kind sir!
I'm glad it was helpful!
I am currently reviewing Orgo 1 in preparations for Orgo 2 next year. And Sir, you are doing an incredible job. I have been struggling with chemistry for a long time. It was just by chance that I came across your video and let me write that for the first time I am finally able to grasp the concept of the hybridization theory more in dept. You are a talented individual who has been born to teach scientific concepts.
Thank you for making this video!
You're welcome! Thanks for your comment!
I don't comment often but you saved me here
🙏🙏🙏
THANK YOU. I've been trying to truly grasp this concept for too long. This is the best resource I've encountered.
This video saved my life. Thank you so much for making this concept much more clear than my currently seeming useless textbook!
The only video that makes me understand fully! THANK YOU SO MUCH IVE BEEN CLUELESS ABOUT THIS TOPIC FOR WEEKS
BLESS YOU! I’ve been STRUGGLING WITH THIS CONCEPT FOR A WEEK STRAIGHT. 🙏🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
This actually answered every single question I had about this topic, which I didn't think was possible because I was SO freaking confused. Thank you for making this video what the heck
This is simply the best explanation of hybrid orbitals ever made.
Thanks!
Fantastic video! Thank you for speaking slowly and using great pictures to explain this concept
This is the best video explaining Hybrid Orbitals I have found! I have struggled understanding this for a while, but this has cleared up everything!
This is the best explanation so far. Ive really been on a search. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks.
