@Miss Wetton, I am a new subscriber, first of all thank you very much your videos are really good, i have watched many of your videos halogens, Atomic Bonding etc... Keep posting, also can you tell me the name of the animation software you use to create these vids? nevertheless keep up the incredible work
WAIT I UNDERSTAND SO BASICALLY Na => Na+ + e- DONT THINK OF THE ARROW AS AN EQUALS SIGN!!! AN EQUALS SIGN IS REVERSIBLE (e.g. 2= (10/5) is the same as (10/5) = 2) BUT THAT IS NOT GOING ON HERE ( in this situation, its like you went to the store to buy milk -> you can now make cereal but it means something completely different the other way around so NOT REVERSIBLE ) Na is losing an electron because its getting a positive charge, as you can see if you lose something negative you become positive right?? its the same with electrons so if an element loses an electron (loses a negative thing) they turn positive The products are Na+ and e- because the e- is the electron that has been taken away from the Na, since an electron has been taken away it turns positive so Na => Na+ + e- So just because there is a plus sign doesnt mean we are adding it, the plus sign only means what else has been created from this reaction - think of the + sign representing 'and' , not 'add'. However Na+ + e- => Na Means that a positively charged Na (so one that is missing an electron cuz if u are missing something negative you are positive) and an electron react to form just normal Na, no charge on it. hope this helped :D

Hi Inaya, do you mean the equations at 2:00 for Na+ and S? I wanted to give you two examples of reduction - the first is an ion being reduced back into an atom, and the second is an atom being reduced into an ion - to show the process can go both ways (ion -> atom and atom -> ion). I should have given you 2 examples for oxidation too, but for some reason I didn't think of that!
night before the exam, literally struggling with half equations and ionic equations 😭😭 i’ve never cared because i already get 9s but now i’ve realised it’s not worth the risk so might as well revise it ☹️☹️ might die i
Hello, hope you're well. I am a have achieved a degree in Chemistry. Having an extensive knowledge in Biology and Chemistry, i would love to share my knowledge to tutor with students at considerable prices. Please let me know if you are interested!
I have my chemistry exam tomorrow and this has been so helpful. Thank youu
lmao same, how well prepared do you feel?
@@nishikadam I'm feeling kinda okay I'm just scared I'm gonna forget the formulas. How are you feeling about it?

@@user-it3vk9wx7z thank you so much
hi
have my term two chem exam tmr. and I didn't know what half equations were until I watched this thanks lots.
POV gcse chemistry exam tmrw
THANK YOU I, STRUGGLE SO MUCH ON HALF EQUATIONS THANKS
Hope it helped 😁
me too omgggggg were so twinninggggg
to whoever is reading this, good luck
I have gcse mocks soon and these are going to be in my test, thus really helped thanks!
I have been falling behind in my lessons as I have been unable to understand half equations until I watched this video. It really helped!
thank youuuuuu this is so helpful, i get so confused on half equations
Thanks even my teacher who is rly good couldnt make me understand redox half equations
Thanks this has actually helped alot!!
Wow i wish you were my chemistry teacher- mine made this sound so much more complex than it needed to be 😅
At 3:54 why is it 4e- and not 2e- ?
Because there are 2 oxide ions, and each one loses 2 electrons. :)
@@misswetton Thank you!
I have my igcse chemistry theory paper tomorrow
very low sound
Raise the volume maybe
@@yeahyeah190 sorry to say u dumb....ofc I did and thn said
THANK YOU SO MUCH
I have a final exam where half equations are back
And in 2nd exams i got a 5/20 because of it
And now i understand it
this video was so helpful thank you so much
Very helpful thank you very much
Thank you so much, very detailed i now understand
OMGG TYSMM!!!! i love you video they are so helpful. I've been struggling with half equations for ages but you made them so easyyyy. :))))))
Hi Sara, thanks so much I'm glad it was helpful! Lots of people struggle with half equations at the start, I think we tend to overthink them! :)
Thank u soooo much. I really enjoy watching your videos. 😊
the video is nice and all but please increase the volume of your video. I literally have everything on max but still can't hear much.

Hi Chanith, thank you so much, I hope they have been useful! I will be making some more videos this week. I make the videos using VideoScribe ☺️
Yay! Notifications On😀
Such a helpfull video
Thank you! :)
THANK YOU SO SO SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH
You're so welcome, hope it helped :)
4:13 if lithium is in group 1 and loses an electron to form a positive ion surely it’s supposed to gain an electron ? Very confused lol
an atom wants a full outer shell (of 8 electrons), so its easier to lose one then to gain 7.
Thank you so muchh.💐
I have a question so for oxidization half reactions what does plus E minus mean doesn’t have represent gaining electron?
I HAVE SAME QUESTION :(
WAIT I UNDERSTAND SO BASICALLY
Na => Na+ + e-
DONT THINK OF THE ARROW AS AN EQUALS SIGN!!! AN EQUALS SIGN IS REVERSIBLE (e.g. 2= (10/5) is the same as (10/5) = 2) BUT THAT IS NOT GOING ON HERE ( in this situation, its like you went to the store to buy milk -> you can now make cereal but it means something completely different the other way around so NOT REVERSIBLE )
Na is losing an electron because its getting a positive charge, as you can see if you lose something negative you become positive right?? its the same with electrons so if an element loses an electron (loses a negative thing) they turn positive
The products are Na+ and e- because the e- is the electron that has been taken away from the Na, since an electron has been taken away it turns positive so Na => Na+ + e-
So just because there is a plus sign doesnt mean we are adding it, the plus sign only means what else has been created from this reaction - think of the + sign representing 'and' , not 'add'.
However Na+ + e- => Na
Means that a positively charged Na (so one that is missing an electron cuz if u are missing something negative you are positive) and an electron react to form just normal Na, no charge on it.
hope this helped :D
I have a question how is Na---> Na+ + e-
Different to
Na+ + e- ---> Na
??

amazing help tysm xx
how come for reduction there two different type of half equation?

@@misswetton thank u so much
thanks this might save me from my test but i forget most things I learn and how dare you use oil rig. LEO the lion say GER is superior
thank you so muchhhhh!
Hope it was useful 😁
@@misswetton i have exams in a week's time and i can't thank you enough for helping me💗
You saved my caies maannn
chat am i cooked
yea
cant understand anything whts up with the videos volume
Thank you so much I really appreciate you!
these are so confusing im trying my best to get myself to understand these
are metal atoms part of any group
Most of em are transition metals
Helped me
cupcake
tysmmmmmm
I donot have a full understanding, just show me like this Na+ and Na. Cl_ and Cl
