thank you so much man im currently in y13 and i got absolutely horrible grades in y12, DUU however this year is a come back arch for me im going to get AAA
I am so so happy you exist man❤ I'm sorry you don't have a million subscribers because this is content that is actually making me understand Chemistry and im so grateful for that because falling behind can be really painful But you're that person that is able to pull people out of that place of not understanding and someone people can depend on to understand a topic Thank you ❤
I really appreciate you taking the time to give this feedback. It means a lot to me that people are finding it useful. Well done for keeping working at it! 😃
@@chemistrytutor Thank you so much for responding and the support too! Hopefully I get out of this rut and get the A* I need😁 best of luck for your channel to grow tremendously!
It's stable, yes. But it still has a lone pair. Two of them in fact. It uses 2 of its electrons to make the 2 bonds (one to C and the other to H). So 4 of its outer energy level electrons are unbonded
11:27 Does it matter if I draw the purple arrows but drawing a secondary carbocation intermediate? It's a bit confusing to differentiate the two kinds of drawing (of the arrows).
For A level you can draw either of the colour types of arrow. I drew them the way I did to highlight where each atom could go to give the different products. What matters is which carbocation and product you draw. You'll get the information for which from the command in the question... they'll ask you to show the mechanism for producing a specific product and you'll need to deduce which carbocation it forms from, or they'll ask you to draw the mechanism for the major or minor product. So you have to unpick which mechanism is needed
@@chemistrytutor wow, that's truly a spontaneous response. That's the first time I got replied on RUclips within one day. Thanks Sir, I would take that into notice in my upcoming chem test.
A big thank you to you, sir! This video is so so helpful! I was so confused with all the reactions in each group. Now I know how the homologous groups are related to each other through these reactions. The table comparing substitution and elimination of halogenoalkane is extremely helpful! Just one thing to be added on to this video: the mechanism of nucleophilic substitution of halogenoalkane with NaOH/KOH to produce alcohol. I know it's very similar to halogenoalkane with KCN and NH3 but it will be great to included in this video.🙂
Thank you for the lovely feedback... its really clear how it's helped you 😃 I'm planning on releasing some shorter videos about y13 chemistry after the June exams. Hopefully that isn't too late for you?
When I talk about the carbon on the left or right, I'm referring to the two carbon atoms that began with the double bond. The purple pathway shown on the right of the screen has the H from HBr joining the right hand carbon of the double bond to produce a primary carbocation, whereas the red pathway on the left adds the H to the left carbon of the double bond and produces a secondary carbocation
The carbon in the carbocation is positively charged because it has lost one of its own electrons from the double bond. Before the reaction, this carbon has 8 electrons in 4 bonds (2 single bonds and 1 double bond), sharing electrons with the atoms around it. During electrophilic addition, the other carbon "takes" both electrons from the double bond-one from each carbon. This leaves the original carbon with only 3 bonds (6 electrons), meaning it’s short by one electron from its usual outer shell. This electron loss is why it becomes positively charged
In nucleophilic substitution, in the reaction with cyanide, why does the I become I- (minus) and 2 electrons, and not just I-. As iodine has 7 electrons, but 1 of these electrons is bonded with the carbon in the bond, if it just gains the electron from the chlorine, should it not be I-? As well as this, why in the reaction with ammonia is there a positive?
Great questions. When the C - I bond breaks the I takes both electrons. The I becomes negative as you say. We often don't need to show the electron pair from the bond, but if we do choose to show it, we don't normally worry about how we show the electrons. This usually means we choose to show them as two dots (rather than a dot and a cross). For the Ammonia substitution, the intermediate needs to be charged for a couple of reasons. Firstly, the two reactants were neutral, and the halogen leaves as a negative ion, so the other thing needs to be positive to conserve charge. Secondly, the Ammonia has lost full control/ownership of its lone pair, and its now shared. So it effectively has now got 50% ownership of the pair. A net loss of 1 electron
Sir at 25:04 isn't that a primary haloalkane (meaning it undergoes substitution only) so why is the end product a alkene? Shouldn't it be an alcohol or is the end product based on what OH is dissolved in? Please help I'm so confused
Yes, the solvent for the NaOH is one of the drivers, along with the high or warm temperature. In reality you'll get a mixture of products. Usually though, the solvent is the key indicator as to what is happening

What did you get

@@ravjayakodi2746ooo!! Good job :) that’s amazing
This is so good! I was looking for videos to make a poster and I came across this. You explain it so well and presented it so clearly. Thanks!😊
That's such lovely feedback, thank you 😊
Hi sir, at 26:46, why is one of the products for the right hand pathway H+, and not H20 like the left hand pathway? Thank you!
Typo!
It would be H2O
Good spot!
@@chemistrytutor thank you :)
Thank you!!! This is so in depth and explained so well
Thanks for the feedback 😀
I'm really pleased it's useful!
30:26 why is there a lone pair on the oxygen? Since it is in group 6 shouldn’t it be stable since it’s already bonded to the carbon and hydrogen?
It's stable, yes. But it still has a lone pair. Two of them in fact.
It uses 2 of its electrons to make the 2 bonds (one to C and the other to H). So 4 of its outer energy level electrons are unbonded

real quick question could you explain in electrophiles the part where you said about the C+ being on the right hand side i dont get it 11:10

The purple pathway shown on the right of the screen has the H from HBr joining the right hand carbon of the double bond to produce a primary carbocation, whereas the red pathway on the left adds the H to the left carbon of the double bond and produces a secondary carbocation
9:49 why is the carbon positively charged though? i dont understand

I have some walkthrough questions already, but yes... planning on doing more!
sir, in 28:30 isnt the product nitriles and amines not jot alcohols?
That section highlights the differences and similarities when using NaOH. I hadn't meant to imply those were the only products

Is this applicable for edexcel sir?

All exam boards are at least 95% the same though. The main differences between them is not the content they include, but rather how they structure the course, what topics are on each exam and the question style
Is this for CIEs too? Or edexel? ocr..which board is it?-
