What To Expect in Organic Chemistry
Organic chemistry is one of the most difficult sciences you’ll take in undergrad. Many students fail and have to take it again. You’ve heard the rumors. Perhaps you don’t believe them, or perhaps you’re terrified. But what can you actually do about them? The first step to conquering an unknown beast is understanding it. By […]
Major and Minor Resonance Contributing Structures
Orgo Basics Video Series: Video 7 You know now how to draw the resonance structures. But which one is the most accurate resonance structure? Which one is most representative of the molecule? In this video, I will explain what it means to be the most stable & least stable resonance structures and how to identify it […]
Resonance Structures Organic Chemistry Tutorial Video
Orgo Basics Video Series: Video 6 Resonance structures are alternative Lewis structures for a molecule or an ion. To draw the resonance hybrid or structures, we are moving electrons between adjacent atoms. Overwhelmed? In the video below, you will see an explanation and illustration of resonance structures and resonance hybrids step-by-step. This will help you visualize […]
Formal Charge Formula Shortcut for Organic Compounds Video
Orgo Basics Video Series: Video 4 Calculating formal charge is one of the most important skills you have to master in your organic chemistry course. At first you’ll simply calculate which atom on a polyatomic ion carries charge. But as you get into more advanced reactions you’ll be using formal charge to identify reactive intermediates […]
Formal Charge Calculation Shortcut Tutorial Video
Formal charge is one of the few equations you’ll learn in your organic chemistry course. It’s also needlessly difficult. This video helps you understand the logic behind formal charge as well as my shortcut for calculating formal charge in just a few seconds.
