    Hydrogen bonding can be so confusing, and in this video we talk about some common mistakes. Hydrogen bonds are intermolecular forces between molecules. They form because one atom has a high electronegativity, so it gets a partial negative charge, and the hydrogen gets a partial positive charge.

    you put my college professors to shame. These people have PHDs and cannot convey this knowledge the way you do. That being said, the world could use a lot more people like you and a lot less professors like mine.

    Analogies are always imprecise. But through my years in the classroom, I've never encountered any student confusion about this issue. Because, honestly, when students are learning this for the very first time, they just need an "image" (like magnets) to make the concept more relatable. It's only people like you and me (who understand the nuances between magnetic and electrostatic forces) who worry there'd be confusion. Most 14 year-olds just think "OK, they stick together like magnets."

    I spent the past couple of weeks not understanding intermolecular forces/hydrogen bonding at all!! My textbook was way too complicated to understand. I can't thank you enough for making this video, I finally understand this and I am so happy!! :)

    Coming from another teacher, you are a natural educator!! Very few people who are good at chemistry and mathematics can actually explain it so clearly, simply and thoroughly, so that it makes sense and can be visualized. It makes me sad that it is such a rare gift, had I been taught better in high school, I would've had a very different life and career. Anyway, well done and thank you so much for taking the time to do this, outstanding!
