Electroplating

How does electroplating work? It is a process where you usually take an object made of one type of metal, and cover it with a thin layer of another type of metal. Usually, precious metals like gold, silver, or platinum are the metals that are electroplated. In an electroplating cell, electrons are removed from one of the metals, which is an oxidation process that happens at the anode. This causes the metal to develop a charge turn into an ion, and allows it to dissolve in the solution. Then, at the cathode, reduction takes place, and the metal ion turns into a neutral atom, and sticks to the surface of the other metal.

Your enthusiasm is amusing, at first. It quickly becomes contagious. The simplest most didactic chemistry lesson I've ever had.

[@siddheshparekh]

if our school teachers put in as much effort into teaching as you do . i bet wed all be geniuses

[@kraseidon]

I shall say you're one of the best teacher I've seen on RUclips. You're even better than Khan Academy. I finally understood the concept. I love your videos. Keep up your good work and continue teaching. I still can't forgive the guy who disliked this video.

[@sainyamverma52]

it must take this guy a lot of time to make these cut outs!!! HATS OFF

[@yyousri96]

Its either a teacher or a jealous guy whom disliked this vid

[@prettyvampiregirl4]

Give this guy all the awards please

I am a past public school hs science teacher, and I am now homeschooling. My children were interested in electroplating because of a book that my son was reading. We watched a couple of other videos before yours and you were able to keep their attention for the entire video! They are 6, 11, and 13. I know they won't get all of the concepts but you have done a FABULOUS job of explaining a difficult concept with proper terminology. I am so excited and grateful to have your videos as a resource!! I know even though they may not understand it completely the first time, every time they are exposed to terms and ideas they will be building experience and knowledge. Thank you! (of course now my son wants to actually try it)

I bet all the people who watched this video have chemistry test tomorrow

[@this1schannel672]

this guy is actually the best !! he smiles when he does his chemistry and it really helps

[@tns_sui]

I have never seen someone who seems really enjoy and happy while explaining chemistry. His smile is everything.Thank you for making videos!💓

[@Rishu0911]

You're the best science teacher on Earth

[@hungry8079]

I get tired just thinking how much effort needs to be put in for all your cutouts and stuff o.o very clear and informative!

[@saunyboy123]

Wow, so much effort goes into your videos

[@feliwx4087]

I am in 10th grade and our chemistry teacher left the school ...

[@MasterDayTrader]

Never in life will this process be made any more clear then this video. Good job 🙂

[@sofiyavyshnya6723]

Best Chemistry lesson ever! Super clear. And I like how you move little paper pieces with words written on them across the paper. Makes things come alive

[@Jenniferme101]

"One more because i think it's so cool"

[@ruyasatpathy1237]

Tyler Sir, I really love the way you convert studies into games. I am so happy to understand it so simply and in a funny way. Greetings from India

[@stamonicaswayzel7963]

I struggled to learn this last week but when I watched your video, I quickly learned the process. I admire your way of teaching and especially your contagious smile! Thank you very much!

[@odonellebalaga4723]

HATS OFF to you Sir!!!
