The worst part is my chem teacher is s o great like, as a dude. He’s passionate about what he teaches and you’d think that would make it more interesting, and I guess it does, but it’s really hard to make chemistry interactive. He does his best on that by bringing the class into interactive demonstrations using the students as a way to engage and help understand a little better, but it’s just not enough that the class can feel droning. It’s not like he can condense the work, it’s an hour an ten minute class. Over all I actually love him, easily one of my favorite science teachers, but chemistry teachers gets a bad rap because it’s just so un-engaging.
Ha! It's because by actively seeking this out, you WANTED to learn this material at this time. Whether out of necessity or desire doesn't matter. In class, were you as active of a participant as you were when you watched this video? Did you give your teacher the same concentration that you gave this video? This video is excellent. But, any chemistry teacher should be able to teach you this.

Be like Hydrogen, humble, simple, appreciating the smaller things in life. he's aware how desiring more would just make him less attractive and unable to form bonds with many others around him. More isn't always better and he sticks to 2 electrons instead. Be like Hydrogen.

My teacher couldn't explain in 3 days of this topic which u did in 7 mins helped so much and relieved my stress so much can't say and it the best video than so many others videos on this topic so properly explained from the basic to complex.
Thank you! I am trying to take chemistry online and reading it is very hard to understand. Your videos are clearing things up for me. I truly appreciate it!
2:17 our teacher taught us that H doesn't satisfy the octet rule even though it is stable by having 2 electrons. Not just hydrogen, but also Li+ , Be2+ and Helium violate the octet rule bcz they can't have 8 electrons in their valance shell. Other elements that violate octet rule are transition and post transition elements, which contain more than 8 electrons in their valance shell.
i agree just like in SO3, the lewis structure he just made is wrong... S can violate the Octet rule since it's an exception and can therefore have double bond in each Oxygen
A touch of a genius makes a whole lot of difference. I was bored to death studying my lecture videos but as soon as I watched your lecture on the topic, I became wide awake and interested. Thank you, sir.
As one who also teaches this example in a way that arrives at the same dot structure, I bristle at those who show more than one pi bond at an sp2 hybridized atom. They give no consideration to the unreasonable orbital overlap. SO3, just like nitrate and carbonate, would have an sp2 hybridized central atom with a single pi bond, as shown.
Just in case you have seen the Lewis diagram of sulfur trioxide as something different (i.e. three double bonds as shown in Wikipedia or some old books), current theory suggests that the simple Lewis diagram I drew is most correct based on the lack of d-orbital participation in bonding and the calculated charges (sulfur is positive and oxygens are negative as predicted from formal charges).

ketzbook Hi, thanks for noting this. I tried pausing the video and making the sulfur trioxide lewis dot on my own, and came up with the S 3-bonded, but that would be like giving sulfur 12 electrons, which I guess is possible (it would be an ion). Still a little confused because in my class it was explained that elements like S and O wants 2 bonded and 2 unshared electrons...but this video has been immensely helpful so thank you!!

Samantha Locsin because in order to complete the L shell (or the octate) you’re supposed to hAve 8 electrons The need for all atoms is 2,8,8,8..... but Sulfur had 6 as it’s valence electron and it needed two more cause 6+2 is 8
@@apoorvakhera2961 if sulfur bonds with only single bonds to all three oxygen atoms, is it only the sulfur atom that contributes with all of it's electron then since the oxygen atoms still has 6 unused electrons each?
@@larabernardo740 hi! all atoms should have 8 electrons other than hydrogen so the video is actually right, he gave each of them eight as each line (bond) is the equivalent of two electrons
i spent like 3 hours trying to figure out how to do this from the video assigned to me, but this was 10x faster and easier to understand. i think im gonna ace this test.
SO3 is wrong, oxygen only has 6 valence electrons, and in the lewis structure you showed it has 7 also you calculated that there are 18 valence electrons, how come there are more than 18 v.e’s in your lewis structure?
Exactly, it’s actually a resonance, and Oxygen will have only 4 lone Paris electrons with its double bond and the other two oxygen with one bond will have 5 lone pairs. Am I right?
I don't get how the two Oxygens with a single bond have 3 lone pairs AND a bond. Since oxygen has 6 electrons on the outer shell and a bond, would those single bonds count as dative (where both electrons come from Sulphur)?
I advise against thinking about where the electrons "came from". Yes, you could think of it as dative, but it is better to look at the molecule as a whole. The molecule has a certain number of electrons, and we put the electrons in as bonds or lone pairs to give every element an octet if possible. In the ion hydroxide, oxygen has 3 lone pairs and one single bond, and that bond is definitely not dative. In any case, this leaves oxygen with a -1 formal charge, which supported by high level calculations on the SO3 molecule that shows the oxygens have some negative charge.
The only reason why I wonder where the electrons came from is dot and cross diagrams. These questions I'm doing ask for both, Lewis diagrams and dot and cross diagrams.
Oh. I'm not a fan of dot and cross diagrams, so I don't ask my students to do them. In that case, you could just say that both electrons come from sulfur.
Who ever made this video needs a raise.

welll how did you do?
i spent like 3 hours trying to figure out how to do this from the video assigned to me, but this was 10x faster and easier to understand. i think im gonna ace this test.
When you learn everything last minute before a test..and comment kro
I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY SULFUR WAS UNHAPPY 😭
because sulfur needs 8 electrons to complete it's octect
Omgggg..... Finally after 4 years of my board studies i have found a perfect video... Highly appreciated 😋😋😋😋
To all the homeschool kids we got this 😭
Who's here because of online classes
Me bruhhh
That was so well explained, I cannot express how I feel about it. Specially wanting to actually learn what I am reading. Thank you.

SO3 is wrong, oxygen only has 6 valence electrons, and in the lewis structure you showed it has 7
also you calculated that there are 18 valence electrons, how come there are more than 18 v.e’s in your lewis structure?
Exactly, it’s actually a resonance, and Oxygen will have only 4 lone Paris electrons with its double bond and the other two oxygen with one bond will have 5 lone pairs. Am I right?
@@Al-Suzuki yes, either that or all of them have 4 lone electrons while being double bonded with sulfur
now I clearly understand this thanks for helping sir .love you from INDIA
I don't get how the two Oxygens with a single bond have 3 lone pairs AND a bond. Since oxygen has 6 electrons on the outer shell and a bond, would those single bonds count as dative (where both electrons come from Sulphur)?
I advise against thinking about where the electrons "came from". Yes, you could think of it as dative, but it is better to look at the molecule as a whole. The molecule has a certain number of electrons, and we put the electrons in as bonds or lone pairs to give every element an octet if possible.
In the ion hydroxide, oxygen has 3 lone pairs and one single bond, and that bond is definitely not dative. In any case, this leaves oxygen with a -1 formal charge, which supported by high level calculations on the SO3 molecule that shows the oxygens have some negative charge.
ketzbook I understand, thanks. Really been scratching my head over this for the past two hours.
The only reason why I wonder where the electrons came from is dot and cross diagrams. These questions I'm doing ask for both, Lewis diagrams and dot and cross diagrams.
Oh. I'm not a fan of dot and cross diagrams, so I don't ask my students to do them. In that case, you could just say that both electrons come from sulfur.
ketzbook Very helpful, much appreciated :)
Very good explanation! Thank you!
I Love You, I Have A Paper In Less Than 4 Hours And I Didn't Understand This At All, Lifesaver
I take my hats off to you
Happy to finally understand a 5 hour class in 10 min
