Helpful future tip to memorize common polyatomic ions: Nick the Camel ate a Clam for Supper in Phoenix. Nick: N03^- Camel: CO3^2- Clam: CLO3^- Supper: SO4^2- Phoenix: PO4^3- The charge is determined by the number of *vowels* to the corresponding word The number of Oxygen atoms is determined by the number of *consonants* to the corresponding word. The word "ate" shows that they all end in the root word "-ate".
I was confused about this for a while, but it finally hit me: He gets the charges of the ions from their position on the periodic table, which signifies how many electrons are in their outer shell.
Thank you so much for this video!! I have watched dozens but yours was by far the best and most concise. The speed was just right, most people do this too fast and some of us get lost along the way.
Thank you! I'm a senior taking grade 11 Chemistry in Canada. I am completely lost, I am good with Physics and Bio but needed a extra credit so I'm taking 30S Chem, this is helping! But I'm still confused!
You know I was excited when I signed up for Honors Chemistry and found out that I had gotten one of the best teachers in the school. However things quickly went downhill when some student from KSU came in and started "coteaching" with my original teacher. My actual teacher just sits behind her desk now and works on her computer while the bumbling moron of a student blunders around the class room desperately trying to gain the confidence that is necessary to be a respected and wanted teacher. Therefore until the school realizes their foolish error I am forced to teach most of the content to myself using UA-cam. (In all honesty the people who make these videos are not the heroes that chemistry students deserve, but they are the heroes that we need.)
Thank you so much! I have a small test tomorrow morning and I am the worst at this stuff! My teacher practically hates me and I thought I was going to fail! Now I can show him I know what the hell I am doing! THANK YOU!!!
I have to get an 80 to past my chem test, and I got a 15%. AND I HAVE TO KEEP TAKING THE THING UNTIL I GET AT LEAST AN 80, but this was seriously more helpful than my teacher. I'm taking it again tomorrow, feeling a LOT more confident THANK YOU!
This was incredibly useful and very well descriptive. I also liked how you used multiple examples to ensure understanding. This helped lots with preperation for my chemistry exam, thank you!
thank you so much your videos have helped me catch up where i have been trying to get this learned for two weeks now its so stress relieving having someone who teaches it in an understandable way.
Hey Ben. Thank you for your videos. My Chem professor is smart, but she forgets to break it down for people like me who have never stood a chance with Chem. I'm thankful you are able to break it down. You've definitely helped me through my first and second semester of Chemistry. I always recommend your helpful videos to my friends when they get lost too. Thanks again :)
Thanks so much :D I can't seem to get my head around what my chemistry teacher is trying to explain, so I usually resort to the textbook, but this subject wasn't in the textbook. I'm glad that I found this, it is so useful!
Thank you! This helped me a lot! Most of the other chem videos about this topic make it look soooo complicated but this video made it feel less overwhelming. :)
i know a little bit of subject chem, but I am started to know more explanation for this !!! Sometimes i fell sick.specially if I cant understand the formula.But this video help me to understand better, thank u so much!!!
9:00 This part was very difficult to understand for me, I assume other people as well. Teacher's usually skim through little details like these. Thank you for clarifying that and helping me on my test tomorrow! :D
There IS a way to figure out the SO4 sulfate ION (and for that matter, any of the -ates), and that's by using the T43 (or T41) system. If you can remember the T43 system, it makes figuring out the -ates wayyyy easier. Thank you for your video, though, it has helped me figure out how to name ionic compounds, because it was pretty confusing at first!!! Thanks to ppl like you posting yt videos, I have been able to make my way thru my Intro Chem class a lot easier.
Why do I even pay for college when Im basically up all night everyday teaching myself via UA-cam?
Speak that truth man!! Speak that truth..
Teacher sends us a homework assignment and a powerpoint, and gives us a 1 hour lecture in class....when I can learn this in 10 minutes on youtube
You're paying for the paper man, the degree. Unless you're there for fun, then I would bounce.
I agree as well...
To study on your own for the sake of knowledge alone is a note worthy goal my friend!
You > My Chemistry book. Seriously. I stressed for hours over this and learned it through your explanation in 10 minutes! THANK YOU!
this guy taught me more in 10 minutes than my chem teacher taught me in a couple weeks
R u still living?
@@mennahmohamed1359 lol
I have a test tomorrow, and my teacher hasn't taught us shit. So i have to pretty much teach myself this unit. But thanks for the help man!
haha funny thats exactly my situation
Justin Kim oh man one more checking in. Book's good, but videos help solidify everything.
Same here
K THEillest same here guys, fucking honors chem, annoying af
It seems that almost all honors chem teachers suck
It would be good to include the periodic table when explaining the ions part. It would help to visualize it better, just a tip!
Thanks for your feedback!
Ben's Chem Videos hey man you helped me pass my chemistry class thumbs up!
kinda strange when you need to go to youtube to learn stuff the class was supposed to teach you... im criticizing the class itself ofc
marie nyguyen
I am in Chem 1000 right now and it is taught very well, extra study or hearing things put a different way is always helpful.
who else in the comments are only high school students?
Nafessa Clayton, It isn't that we are only high school, it's that we are already high school students. Wouldn't mind it if life slowed its self a little.
I'm in fricken 9th grade and they want us to do this and i was sick when we learned how to do this and have no clue what to do
im in 8th grade so ts very tough
kool m8 im in stoichemtry now
I see all these college students here and it's so confusing tf I'm in 9th grade why are they teaching us this

OMGGGGG THANKSSSSS
chem 1a is ruining my life so thanks for this
i was stuck on naming compounds for a whole months until i watched this video, thank you so much!
Thank you for making this! I can never understand my chem w/o one on one. I can't learn as fast as everyone else in the class.
I was confused about this for a while, but it finally hit me:
He gets the charges of the ions from their position on the periodic table, which signifies how many electrons are in their outer shell.
Whenever I Tutor my students, I always show them your videos as example lessons to watch before they come see me. Great job. Batman approves!
Thank you so much for this video!! I have watched dozens but yours was by far the best and most concise. The speed was just right, most people do this too fast and some of us get lost along the way.
This has to be the most helpful video I've seen about naming compounds 👍🏼
Thank you for your kind words!
I was looking all over the internet, this is the only video that helped at all.
Passed my Chem test on naming Ionic, Covalent, and Acid compounds thanks to you bro! Much thanks
At last I found myself the best Chemistry Channel! Thank you so much!
La Jiggy Jar Jar Doo
Derrr derrr derrr derrrr derrrrrrr
Learned more from your videos in under 45 minutes than the last 10 hrs. Ive spent in science class in the last few weeks, thanks!!
THANK U!!!!! Test tomorrow :( but your videos on naming help sooo much! U can explain it much better than my teacher :)
Possibly one of the best videos ever! Thank you so much!
I just used this video to understand my homework!! I missed two lectures and two labs and barely understand this stuff.... Now I do!! Thanks!!
THANK YOU! I had to miss class during this lecture and this helps a million!
Very helpful! I have a terrible chem teacher so this was great
Thank you! I'm a senior taking grade 11 Chemistry in Canada. I am completely lost, I am good with Physics and Bio but needed a extra credit so I'm taking 30S Chem, this is helping! But I'm still confused!
This video taught me more than my science teach taught me in weeks. Thank god i found your channel or i would have flunked chem :))))

THANK YOU!!!
I was stupid and didn't pay attention in class, this really helped and i actually learned something :D Thanks a lot man.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME FEEL SMART IN CHEMISTRY!
even with a tutor, i was struggling with this because my teacher is horrible, but this makes sooo much more sense. thanks!!!
college student here, You saved my life thank you for the clear explanation
oh my gosh. I didnt understand this concept at all until i found you. I think you just helped me pass my quiz tomorrow :)
You taught me what my Chem teacher couldn't, cheers mate!
I have to get an 80 to past my chem test, and I got a 15%. AND I HAVE TO KEEP TAKING THE THING UNTIL I GET AT LEAST AN 80, but this was seriously more helpful than my teacher. I'm taking it again tomorrow, feeling a LOT more confident THANK YOU!
I have a chemistry test on Monday, and you really gave me some hope! Thanks so much
This was incredibly useful and very well descriptive. I also liked how you used multiple examples to ensure understanding. This helped lots with preperation for my chemistry exam, thank you!
have a chem final next week and this helped me so much thank you!!!
You taught this info in an organized and timely fashion, great job! I know I'm going to ace my test tomorrow!
WOW I felt stupid when I didn't understand anything in the three hour chem lecture. BUT NOW I GET IT THANKS
I'm taking Chem 120, and these videos are helping me a lot!
thank you so much your videos have helped me catch up where i have been trying to get this learned for two weeks now its so stress relieving having someone who teaches it in an understandable way.

thank you for making these videos they are so helpful cause right now i'm falling behind cause i'm not understanding how the teacher says it
Thanks man, really cleared up how to us the Roman numerals!
Thank you sooo much for the help!!! You've mastered explaining this stuff ...
Thank you so much, I was so confused when my teacher taught us about it. But I understand it now :)
thanks for the video man, now I can clearly understand how to name compounds in my chemistry 101.
Same here chemistry 101
Thank you so much I have a test in about 15 min and I learned this in 10 .
Thanks your method is straight to the point.
your better than my chemistry teacher! Thank youuu!
this video is amazing and 100% helpful. Thank you so much
I'm finally understanding most of this stuff, thanks
Thank you! I hope you get more views, you teach better than my teachers. Love a student having a tough time with honors chemistry and finals
Thank you for explaining when we use roman numerals!
very helpful, thanks a mill for making this video, you are way better than my PHD professor.
Awesome! Thanks! This truly helped me to understand!
Thank you man ! nice video, you made it very easier for me.
This really helped me thanks so much! I was struggling In chemistry but now I'm fine ! ( :
This video is like the only thing helping me pass my chemistry exam
9:00 This part was very difficult to understand for me, I assume other people as well. Teacher's usually skim through little details like these. Thank you for clarifying that and helping me on my test tomorrow! :D
Thank you so much!!! This helped me so much.
Thank you so much! I understand this far better now.
Thank you very much sir!! You answered my questions!
do you still have to put the mono for a plus one charge, di for a plus 2 charge and so on?
God bless you!! If you could explain how to know the charges of an element that would be great! Thank you again!
Great video first one to see but it helps with my science class in school. Thanks
Very good video. Loved it m8. Thanks, got exams in a few days...
Chemistry midterms tomorrow, thanks for this review ^__^
Thank you so much for up loading this vid!!! you save me!!!!!
Good job on the lecture, now I know how to name these. I was lost
There IS a way to figure out the SO4 sulfate ION (and for that matter, any of the -ates), and that's by using the T43 (or T41) system. If you can remember the T43 system, it makes figuring out the -ates wayyyy easier.

Thanks to ppl like you posting yt videos, I have been able to make my way thru my Intro Chem class a lot easier.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH SIR
YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER
Thank you! This makes so much sense!
Great job!!!! Simple and well explained :)
Really well explained video, thanks!
Tankyu! I really needed this
This is awesome. Thank you!
SO helpful! Thank you!
