My proff took 2 lectures to explain and still managed to confuse everyone. Thank you so much.
Ty for saving my life
I swear the textbooks just converted and never explained and it looked so simple but I was still so confused and this broke it down perfectly. Thanks!!
Thank you so much for posting this. This was one of the first lessons in chemistry, which I was not getting at all until seeing your video, and my teacher continues to give us problems that require conversions and I'm getting them every time. You have saved my grade.
Holy crap! After going through several UA-cam videos and meeting with my professor to explain the metric system, you by FAR explained it so I can understand. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!
Spending an hour trying to find this video after a year was actually well worth it. Only method that works for me Thank you!
I've seen too many "methods" and "explanations" for prefix conversion. Thanks so much for posting. This makes sense!
My teacher taught us this topic awhile ago and I was left dumbfounded. Finally I get it and I'm just so happy I found this video!! Thank you so much!!
yes my teacher does well explaining i just needed this video for a refresh
Wow, out of the 20 videos regarding metric conversion your method is the one I'm going with, took me 2-3 tries but I got it now no problem, thank you!
Wow, of all the times I've encountered SI Conversions and repeatedly failed to understand the topic, you broke it down the best for me to finally understand it once and for all! Thanks so much!
wish my teacher made videos like this for people who forgot the subject entirely. Nobody asks questions and I'm sure its because they are to shy. anyways thanks for making this video it helps lots.
Old is gold 🏆
thank for this!!! finally someone who clearly explains and visualizes that a prefix can be attached to any base (gram/ meter)!!
thank you so much for the video!!!! this is the best method i've come up across in converting si units and i'm very sure it's going to benefit me well, thanks a whole lot!
Thanks!! I spend one hour searching for a good explanation video!! and I can say that this is the best explanation
out of almost 5 vids I watch, this is the only one I understand, I spent 3 hours with the other vids and all it took for me to understand this from his vid is 10minutes..... thank you so much
This is so much easier than the 2 step conversion my professor is teaching us. Thank you!
Thank you soo much for this video! currently studying for a final and this video just might have saved my grade :D
This helped me understand this concept so much! Thank you for the video!
i was really confused on these prefixes thanks for the help man.
This video really helped me with understanding how to go from unit to next. Thank you so much.
Awesome. Your method works beautifully. Far far far beyond what I was taught. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much!! I've been struggling to understand how to do this and have watch so many other videos, yours made to so simple and easy to understand!! THANK YOU!!
GREAT! Thanks so much! Best method I've seen.
Thank you so much! Greatly appreciated! This was explained so well and I now feel confident walking into my test in a couple of days! Keep up the great work😁
luv yer vids!! This is great, clear, to the point, easy to use.
This is the first time I liked all the comments because the video was just awesome. My lol teacher was still confusing me. But I am just cleared now. Thanks sir.🙏🙏🙏😃
5 years after taking your class and your videos are still very helpful! Thanks, DW!!
I wanted to thank you so much , this helped me learn something that I could never understand. I am pretty sure I got a good grade because of this, BIG thank you
bro my mind is blown!!! this made it super easy I was not getting it one bit , you my friend are like baby jesus!
Brilliant! Thank you for this clear explanation. I never thought of it this way before. I have just accepted the 10 to the power as given. Now it all make sense!
Thanks so much for this video!!! It cleared up a point of confusion that I had for many years!!! Really appreciate you taking the time to help people out!!!
Yassss you are a lifesaver 🙏🏼🙏🏼 better explanation than my prof and the book!!
Another good one! Thanks for posting!
I've spent 3 hours on this topic and this is the best video hands down! Keep it up.
This is so far the best method I've ever learned for converting metric prefixes! Thank you so much for sharing this clever method, we owe you a lot!
Thank you for the simple explanation! I’m studying for my chemistry test retake tomorrow.
Excellent method! I've been struggling with how we were taught in class and this toppled my hours of confusion in just a few minutes. Thank you!!
Thank you so much for uploading this video. Big help!
omg! it was amazing lecture i had! thank you for enlightening me
Finally someone who explains it sensibly!
Thank you so much for this! I’m having my Chemistry test tomorrow 😭
Thankyou!!! I'm doing a Bsc at the moment and this was frying my head. 👍
Definitely the best video on this topic, thank you!
Thank you so much. This explanation is the most easiest and quickest. I really do appreciate. Would not have understood this if it weren't for you.
Thank you very much for this video, I was extremely confused until I watched this video.
thank you so much, you literally saved my life
Thank you very much for producing this video. It is very easy to follow with clear understanding
Thank you so much it was stuck in my head since years now
did you have a tutorial on how to rules of the exponents? This is why I kept getting the answer wrong, I didn't know you had to add the exponents. I thought I could just times it by the 10 to whatever.
I have an exam tomorrow, you saved me, I finally got it!
FINALLY SOMETHING BRILLIANT!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you.... This was so helpful
finally someone who knows what am searching for thanks bro ur explanations were rlly good and simple/keep up the good work #crashchemistryacademy
keep on the good work
literally think this is such an amazing method thank you so much
Thank You so much. It's now that I see the light after so many years
You explain it better than my teacher. Thank you so much!
This is my first comment and I have been struggling with conversions since the beginning this is the first time that I have been so clear
thank you so much for this video it's very helpful
Explained in easy and clear way . TQ so much .
Hi I may just be pulling a complete blank but I'm still confused on how he is getting the exponent in the conversions by subtracting from said prefixes. How does he know which prefixes to use?
THANK YOU YOU SAVED MY LIFE I SWEAR
I’m having a quiz tomorrow and I didn’t understand shit about metric prefixes but now,thank youu I’m sure I’ll pass the quiz tomorrow
Thank u a lot 😭😭💛💛you're the best
Thank you for your videos. They are clear and accurate. A suggestion for the conversion between modified metric units: instead of subtracting and adding the powers, it is easier just to "plug them in" on the opposite sides like 10^-3 nm / 10^-9 mm . Then you can execute the calculations. Students should know to use the power on the "opposite" side of the prefix, like in 1nm/10^-9m, so it would be easier just to tell them to use the powers on the opposite side when going from prefix to prefix.
Thanks for the suggestion! That seems like a straightforward method once the reversing of the powers is mastered, but that makes me uneasy. I feel that could be an obstacle with many students, especially given that reversing the powers eliminates the "number sense" of relating the two units, which makes your method rote. Perhaps it depends on the math level of the student and their own "number sense." Definitely food for thought.
Im a bit confused with why the decimal was moved. it went from 10^7 ... 10^-6. I was with you until that part
Yeah me too but then I realised, It's just a mistype..It's supposed to be 10^(-7) actually
the number was on the bottom. The 7 turned to a -7. Then when he moved the decimal over one to the left, which added a positive number to the -7 and resulted in the -6.
You saved my life. Why can't college professors explain it this easily - God knows...
I am really love this so much
this help so much thank you so much
Thanks this helped so much for my physics test
thanks so much I am a pharmacy student and all my studies depend on this , you are a life saver
I never write comments, but this just saved my butt! Thanks so much!
Complete lifesaver🙌😭
how many cubic centimeters are there in exactly one cubic mete??
Love this video!!!
Thanks for the help
I cannot thank you enough my chem professor could not explain this to me for shit and you just saved my mind from endless hours of frustration THANK YOU
theabomination _
then i would appreciate it if you know how to convert from nm to m? I followed his same steps but my final answer was different from my teacher's. For example: change from 10nm to m
Good article. Thanks
Wow the absolute best explanation
Helpeddddddd alot❤,thank you
thank you for including nanometers n other ones :’)
Sir thankyou thankyou thankyou . U made my day
Could someone explain to me why we put 10^-6 in example 2?
Nice explanation thanku sir 👍
Very interesting it help a lot thank you
where did he get this "-6" in one problem? please help, we have exams and I still don't get this metric prefixes.
Just a Commenting guy . . . He moved the decimal point from 18.2 to 1.8 × 10¹
Ali Imran
A bit late I know, but if he doesn't know metric units, he probably doesn't know standard form
Explained it better than my A level physics book which seemed to over complicate it!👌 cheers 👍
thank you soo much!!
best method ever..
OMGGG THIS IS 🥺 gold 🥺
Thanks a lot sir again.
Been struggling with converting for way too long u probably wont read this but i really appreciate your help
THANK YOU SO MUCH
YOU'RE A SAVIOUR!
Amezing lesson
Have an exam with this tomorrow and my teacher never taught the topic, so thank you
BAE THANK U SM ALL MY TEACHER DOES IS BREATHE LOUDLY INTO THE MIC AND I HAVE A QUIZ TMRW 🤧🙏
Same shit I swear
You have to be Bahamian
Torei Bowe i look like i’m from the bahamas?
How did you do? I'm taking this class now?
Qalamul Akbar my grade actually turned out to be rlly good in chem i think cuz this was taught in the beginning of the year i just didn’t rlly transition from summer
