A actually asked an explaination of this from 4 chemistry teachers at my school, two of them spending more than half an hour to explain it. however no one explained it as good as this. Good work! + organization ++ presentation. =)
It did help a lot. The book that I am reading didn't give me the angle measurements of all the geometric shapes. It just showed 3 of them, and like I'm reading that book by myself, it was important for me to have found your video. Thanks a lot!
Brilliant! just saved me so much time for cramming for my final tomorrow. Explained it WAY better than my chem professor...who took 3 hours to attempt. lol thanks :)
@karnak333 (continuation) In H2O you have 2 bonded pairs and 2 lone pairs, so its the tetrahedral. Then from the 109.5º, you substract 5º (2.5º for each lone pair) so, you'll end up with 104.5º And that's it :D! Let's take the triagonal, 120º. It will be the same story. SO2 it has 1 lone pair, so you substrac 120º - 2.5º = 117.5º and there you go, you just find out the angle :) Hope this is useful!
This is simply a model to predict the approximate bond angles. Actual angles should be determined experimentally. Correct, non-bonded electrons have stronger repulsive forces and "take up more space" than predicted by simple geometric reasoning.
How about HCO2 -1? It has a sigma bond (carbon and hydrogen) another sigma bond (carbon and oxygen with 3 lone pairs) and a double bond (carbon and oxygen with 2 lone pairs) What will be the shape and the bonding angle?
What I don't understand is, if there are lone pairs, wouldn't those lone pairs be "unhybridized" p-orbitals. For example the oxygen in H20 is sp3 hybridized, why isn't it sp hybridized since only 2sp bonds are present and 2p lone pairs. Please help!
please help im having trouble understanding this: isnt sp hybridization supposed to be triple bonds? and single bonds are sp3 hybridization? please help
This is the simplest, most concisely and well-explained explanation of hybridization I've yet come across. Great Job!
Why do I even bother going to class? You taught me better in 10 minutes than my AP chemistry teacher taught me one week :)
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HELPFUL THIS WAS. Thank you. You just saved me from a possible fail on my chem test tomorrow.
You are a great teacher! Please stick with it here on RUclips. Chemistry students are always in need of extra reinforcement learning like this!! :)
Probably one of the best visualisation I've got of hybridization😍

This was actually great, the problem with lectures and textbooks is that so much is left to the imagination for the shapes of these things.
It did help a lot.

Thanks a lot!
your a chemistry godess, god i wish i had acess to all these great youtube videos when i had to take this class,... bummer. young people are so lucky
This is a great explanation and simplifies everything. My professor tends to make everything about chemistry confusing and this helped me a lot.
you make me want to study chemistry 24-7... Your videos are sooo much fun... Thankyou for being amazing!!
Best video of bond angles I have ever seen so far ...thanks a lot ...looking forward for more videos like this.😇😇
Words cannot express my gratitude.
Really, you've been a great help.
thank you very much for such an informal video. BY FAR the best presentation i have heard, even better than any of my teachers! keep it up!!!
Brilliant! just saved me so much time for cramming for my final tomorrow. Explained it WAY better than my chem professor...who took 3 hours to attempt. lol thanks :)
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!
you just summarized almost the whole chapter!
Thank you for taking the time to make this amazing video. It really helped me understand the concepts of bonding and hybridization.
thanks :D

Very nice,no more words.I prepared wooden models and teach with it .
you are my life saver!!! Thank you for the clear explanation
I love you so much Ms. Coonce. Keep being awesome
Thank you so much for posting!!! I've never understood this until now. Awesome explanations.
Fantastic approach!
back to school and the popularity skyrockets!
Thank you so much. You are just so helpful and informative. I LOVE the amount of details you put in here.
Thank you .
You video made me to learn the shape of sp³d²,sp³d bad sp³d³ hubridization
haha i didnt know you were going to explain it and i was really confused and was like wait that's to fast! but then you explained it. thanks!
Really this is an awesome explanation.❤🙏
This was so helpful! Thanks a bunch!
you have a verb of teaching i will love to be in your class
loving your videos! this is how I study for my tests!
THANK YOU! So simple and to the point.
thanks bro you really helped me to figure out how these electrons are organized ;)
Excellent explanation
Wow you explained that better than my college proffesor thank you.
Thank you very much , now organic chemistry is in my list of favourite subjects ^^ .
that was wonderful it helped soooo much. much better than this confusing textbook. everything makes sense now!!!
the clay idea :')
This is acutally pretty easy when you explain it. Thank you!
You are A WONDERFUL TEACHER!
Your channel is worth subscribing😘
Wow...Thank u soo Much :) That's the best way to teach , doing it practically :) Thanks a lot :)
Helped so much! Thank you!
It was really helpful for me ....thanks for video
@nightmindr Agreed. Confuses certain concepts when you don't really understand it to begin with. Lists shapes seemingly randomly.
This is simply a model to predict the approximate bond angles. Actual angles should be determined experimentally.
Correct, non-bonded electrons have stronger repulsive forces and "take up more space" than predicted by simple geometric reasoning.
Thank you so much Janet! Your video makes a real difference!
Very helpful.
i cant thank you enoughh!!
The music at the end definitely made the video for me..
you have insanely neat drawings
Your video was a major help! Thank you!
your lecture is superb....
i need your help in understanding the hybridization of carbenes
Hey....thanks for the great demonstration! It works!! Great work...keep up the good thing! Thanks again!
definitely better than my chem teacher
thanks a lot!! really really helps!!
How about HCO2 -1?
It has a sigma bond (carbon and hydrogen)
another sigma bond (carbon and oxygen with 3 lone pairs)
and a double bond (carbon and oxygen with 2 lone pairs)
What will be the shape and the bonding angle?
What I don't understand is, if there are lone pairs, wouldn't those lone pairs be "unhybridized" p-orbitals. For example the oxygen in H20 is sp3 hybridized, why isn't it sp hybridized since only 2sp bonds are present and 2p lone pairs. Please help!
this video's explanation is really thorough...thanks!!!
What is the difference between electronic hybridization and molecular hybridization?
Thanks madam you are great teacher
please help im having trouble understanding this: isnt sp hybridization supposed to be triple bonds? and single bonds are sp3 hybridization? please help
Thanks for this video, it helps a lot for my Chem class! :)
Thank you so so much! I didn't get this at all, but now I do :)
You and chemguy rocks
The last molecule shown in the vid is sp hybridized & the carbon atoms have 1 sigma & 2 pi bonds, right?
She sounds British at 6:10!
"Six!"
Great video, helps a lot.
u r a very good teacher and i really like to be in ur class
brilliant....should say..!! :)
this is sooo helpful! thanks so much
because co2 is like this
O=C=O
if u like
there are only 2 electron regions
the two double bonds
hence sp
this is amazing thankyou! It really helps to be able to review this information! thanks
thank u sharin your knowledge wit us by posting it in you tube
with present of the lone pairs, why does it decrease the bond angles ?
Does angle changes when pie bond is there as in case of lone pair?
hi, thanks again for your helpful videos. They helped me a bunch.
why am i paying my tuition coach when youtube is more than enough....
Very, very good ! Thanks !
Thank you! You are the best!
For the trigonal bipyramid, is it possible if we write it as sp3d?
wow, incredible... speechless...
Thanks alot could you show a few more examples if possible
One bond contains two electrons. One bond is a sigma bond.
If you have a double bond, you have a sigma and pi bond.
CLAY! BRILLIANT.
Sigma bond is a covalent bond in which electrons are /shared/ between atoms. You cannot make a bond with only one electron.
Nice video
Thank you so much! You were a great help!
Worth watching. Thanks!!
Thanks so much, didnt get it before!
what does it mean when an atom is sp2 or sp3 hybridized?
vielen dank,das video ist sehr interesant. !!!
@koreahiho Don't quote me on this, but I think that would be Tetrahedral.
this was very helpful!! thanks alot!!
thanks alot this helped me understand this alot better
Thank u ma'am😘😘😘😘
Wow!
so basically sigma bonds are containing only one electron right??
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR AMAZING EXPLANATION
Amazing job!
