why dont you turn front carbon also ?
Lana says
I still don’t understand how to figure out the front and rear groups and how to use a wedge and dash even though I watched all your 6 videos. Please help thank you
Akansha Singh says
I am not able to imagine that how by grabbing the front carbon and moving it to left leads the H(above the plane )to righ and the Cl(below )the plane to the left?plz explain.

Thanks, salam!
Nathaniel says
These videos are great, but I do have one small issue. I cringe a bit every time I hear you say “gowsh” because it’s pronounced “gohsh” (it also means left, not right, as was stated in a previous video)
Leah4sci says
I’m sorry you don’t like my French pronunciations
Mees_Tee says
i dont understand why we have to shift the front carbon a little to the left. Is it compulsory?
Leah4sci says
Mees_Tee which point in the video are you referring to?
Shahad Saleh says
Dear Leah ,
I can’t thank you enough for all you have done for us !!
you are amazing ? Wonderful ? Genius ? All these words can’t express my feelings toward you !! All I can say that you made me LOVE organic chem ! God bless you
Leah4sci says
Thank you Shahad. Organic chemistry is a really fun topic if given the chance. I’m glad you’re able to figure this out during the semester. I find that if you enjoy what you’re studying you tend to work harder and do better in the long run.
