@@wbreslyn I personally am a bit put off by how people will correct mistakes you make and you will ignore them and not respond. But hey that's just me! Some people may actually find that appealing. Like kind of a "stick to your guns" type of vibe.
@@sharpnova2 I try to respond when I can, especially if there is a mistake (about 15% of the time there is, the other times the person misunderstands the concept). So if you see a mistake, do let me know!
Thanks a lot for your videos; they come in very handy when I am doing Chem problems! They really help explain confusing problems in a way that is easy to understand. Your engagement with others on the channel by still uploading and answering comments is one of the reasons that your channel is the best. Thank you, and please keep up the good work!
Definitely gonna share it to my fella classmates who also didn't understand this lesson. I'm currently watching all your vids even from nearly a decade ago. Thank u so much sir.
My professor did not go over this much at all the other day but will be on the test tomorrow. I've watched a lot of videos but you explain it the best.
omg i cried over this because i did not understand this in class. this was so helpful, especially when adding the valence electrons so i knew how many i had to use. thank you!
Thank you for this!! I was really having a hard time understanding these topics, but because of your channel, I'm able to answer all of my activities^-^
Thank you so much this one basic topic has been the crux that made all topics involving vespr theory and everything so much more difficult because I just never got it until I saw this video. Thank you so much
Another excellent video Dr. B. Showing the periodic table, mentioning those elements from period 3 and on, to resonance structures tied in much for a better understanding of how to draw the Lewis dot structure. D:)
I have more videos on hybridization in the works. For now this one is pretty good: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UeQg8tsnE8Q.html What are you interested in about molecular species?
Your example for expanded octets (BrCl5) is wrong. The example compound has a total of 42 valence electrons and there are only 20 pairs in your given example. It needs one more pair of electrons connected to the Br.
