Welcome to my channel. These videos are here to help anyone who wants to learn chemistry without having to step into a classroom to do it. The primary idea responsible for the establishment of this resource is my strong belief that we all have the right to a free education. I have been teaching the undergraduates at the University level in the US for over a decade, and I have dedicated my life to public service. Since helping you learn chemistry is what I can give back, I am excited to assist you in any way I can!
I have recently realized that my students aren't the only ones who use these as a resource, that said, the material presented on this channel is primarily presented to assist my current students. So, if you find something that helps you, that's great!
Thanks for watching! Prof. Heath

i love this video so much yall like yall dont even understand i used to watch this every night to make me happy and go eep one night i couldnt watch it and i cried like yall i am feral for chemisty i love chemisty so much and then i started school again and i had insomnia for unrelated reasons and i went like three days without sleeping. like yea first night was pretty good because i was too excited for REAL chemisty lab class i was gonna start the following day but by night two it all the fun was gone like i was getting pretty scared. i couldnt sleep not because i was too excited for chemisty lab class it was because i screwed up my schedule over break because i would have sleep paralysis from anxiety but like i said i love chemisty so i would watch this video and then the demons i named mr. and mrs. tah stopped biting my head off every night. id still go to bed at like 3am tho and that isnt good when you dont try to change it before going back to school. i stopped watching this video because knowing half an hour went by and i still wont sleep was scary. its been soooo long! like five months or so, thanks from united states 🩵💙🩷💚
what is the first step in the mechanism that breaks apart the Br2? The part where the pi bond is attacking Br AND Br e- are going back to it? WHat is that? Thank you in advance
Clearing things up for some of you : The info in the video is in fact correct, elements with unpaired electrons are affected by external fields and vice versa. The reason you might see that in your textbook copper is classified as rather diamagnetic (contrary to this video) is that copper is actually rarely seen in nature in the form of a regular atom, it's usually found as a Cu+1 ion, because its unpaired electrons get into what we call "an electron cloud" and form metallic bonds between the copper atoms (which will make up the copper piece, bar, etc..) and it'll act as a diamagnetic material as a whole. Hope this helps! (Also plz correct me if some of the info I shared is incorrect)
Thank you for posting these. I am working on studying for the MCAT and having problems like this to solve and check my work against with a good explanation if I am too far off it a blessing.
