Intro to Orgo Series: Video 1
Understanding large-scale organic chemistry reactions is based on the simple principles of organic structure. While you will not be tested directly on this topic in your organic chemistry course, it is vital that you have an understanding of the subatomic particles and their properties
This tutorial video will provide you with a brief review of the 3 main subatomic particles including protons, neutrons and electrons. You will also learn about their location within the atom as well as mass and charge of each.
Test your knowledge of this topic after watching by taking the free quiz linked below this video

Your videos really helps me. Thank you!
But I have a question: Why did you write 2 electrons as 1 pair, instead of putting them uniformly in the shell?

You are an incredible tutor, Leah. Very articulate and thorough. You’ve helped me with O Chem so much. I feel like I have a solid grasp on the concepts now. Thank you!
Leah4sci says
Wonderful to hear, Ana! You’re very welcome!

Thank you for creating video tutorials in organic chemistry because these past few days I found myself really depressed about this subject. My professor doesn’t know about information overload. He’s also using jargons and could not make his lessons simpler to make us understand more but your ebook the “10 secrets to acing organic chemistry” has a point that I need to read before the class. Thank you again. I wish I could be one of your students ’cause if you’re my professor reviewing will be unnecessary. God bless 😀 <3
Leah4sci says
You’re very welcome. Use my videos and reading before class to ensure you’re always prepared

sumit sharma says
miss leah you are very gud in making me understand the basics of organic n i thank u from bottom of ma heart i want to understand more about reaxn mechanism….
Leah4sci says
Thank you Sumit. Which mechanisms are you asking about?
jim vandiver says
Heard about your site thru Med School HQ podcast. I’m 72 and worked awhile at a nuclear power plant. I forgot or never knew what duterium and tritium are, but do now, just their impact in fission reactors. Thanks! Just need time to spend on your site because biochem is so important.
Leah4sci says
Thanks Jim and wow! Glad my videos are able to help you understand what you’re working with 🙂
