Video 5 in the acid/base tutorial video series shows you how to use conjugate base resonance to determine the strength or stability of conjugate bases.
If you can logically understand how resonance effects stability you’ll have an easier time determining acidity of neutral starting acid molecules.

Thanks. I’m in general chem and this is helpful
Michelle: glad to help
Your videos are amazing! However, I have a doubt. We say that 1 electron carries -1 charge. But here when we transfer 2 electrons as a ‘lone pair’ we still transfer -1 charge. We should transfer -2 charge?
Sorry if my doubt is stupid, I’m just trying to learn.
One electron already belongs to the atom, the second electron is the one that introduces a negative charge
Hello! How are you? I want to appreciate to you.. you are doing good for all of us. you are leading me very well in chemistry. I am too much crazy to learn about chemistry. I hope you will help me more and more for my easiness.
Thank you, Muhammad!
thank you so much, your video help me so much
can you please make one about oxidation state of carbon atoms indifferent functional group, and oxidation level changes, and how we can differentiate if the reaction is an oxidation or reduction or neither
I’m sorry but I’m currently working on other video series
Your video are extremely helpful! Thank you so much for sharing.
You are very welcome Latonya. Are you in orgo 1 or orgo 2?
