Subatomic Particles and Atomic Structure Video

August 15, 2012 By Leah4sci 26 Comments

Subatomic Particles Atomic Structure in Orgo Video Leah FischIntro 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


(Watch on YouTube: Atomic Structure. Click cc on bottom right for video transcription.)

This is Video 1 in the Intro to Orgo Video Series. Click HERE for the entire series.

    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?

    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 ๐Ÿ˜€ <3

    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.
