      Please don't break their dreams.
      Also, don't tell them the production cost and all the people behind the scene who made even one episode possible.
      And how that in no shape or form can compare to the resources that are put in a school classroom. Except if the student/pupil hasn't paid a fortune to go in a private top tier school with the best teachers and resources available for their privileged education.

    Hey Hank, whenever you have a minute, PLEASE CORRECT THE ERROR at 10:12. Dehydrogenation is NOT the removal of a water molecule. Rather, it is the removal of hydrogen. Thank you for yet another awesome video!

    I hate chemistry.
    I'm serious, there is no other subject in school that I hate more (exept physics, maybe). To my defense: I blame my teachers.
    But anyway, I have a chemistry exam in two days which I NEED TO PASS, or else I'm fucked.
    I think the only way to do it is to binge watch the chemistry crash course videos - which is fine since they're incredibly comfortable to watch and even actually interesting. I love the way Hank explains everything as if it's not part of a huge complex random fucked-up system that I'll never get to understand. It's way easier than I thought. Thank you so so so much, Hank (and crash course team) for doing this. You're literally saving me.
    So let me rephrase my first sentence: I hate the way they taught me chemistry, but I love the way crash course teaches it.

    Hank and John are obviously both intellectually gifted which is kind of logical since the intellectual quotient is actually a matter of genes, and yes Hank, you speak way wayy wayy too fast for my questions to settle up, but I love you because that is a more proper way to learn than that offered at school. Sincerely, I never actually follow any class at school, always daydreaming ( about people, and ants, and books, and atoms) and getting to study on my own is way easier with those videos.

    I just realized the reason so many of us learn much more from Hank and many other youtube videos. Our teachers eventhough we bash them, they try, but the manner in witch Hank explains, its like I had to hear it again but in different words and in a different order. So, language here is critical for one to understand the information.

    I’m in 8th grade about to get in College and Career Readiness, all my life ever since I was in 1st grade I wanted to take after my mom and be a Chemical Engineer. Now years later I finally realize that I’m just forcing myself to do I job that I don’t want to because of my parents. Don’t get me wrong I love Chemistry with all my heart, but I just couldn’t see me in that position. Since then I also knew that I was going to go to high school next year, with makes me conclude to me needing to make an image of what I’m going to do with my life. I am doing Biology right now so I’m going to do Chemistry next year. My mom introduced me to Chemistry when I was in the 6th grade, to show me a bit of what she does. I’ve been hunting a few ideas for jobs and I think Organic Chemistry might be the one. Even though I don’t know a lot about this subject, I can image myself in college studying hard to be a Chemist. Thank you for making this video. :)

    Woohoo! From watching other chemistry videos, I have been wondering what the 3,5- and similar prefixes actually meant; but had no idea what to even google for to find out. I got the explanation in this video without even expecting it. Thank you!

    The nomenclature is so regular that this makes me want to write a computer program that lets you put in the name of a hydrocarbon and it will show you a 3d model.

      The former is an example of a name using nonsystematic nomenclature (because it's much easier and because, being aromatic, systematic nomenclature can't fully describe its structure), the latter an example of nomenclature you probably would miss. You'd probably eventually find some compounds for which there is as yet no known systematic nomenclature, or at least none that doesn't rely at least partially on trivial names.

    • @TheRobinator143
      @TheRobinator143 10 лет назад +1

      Trust me, that would be one hell of a program to write... Hydrocarbons are the easiest organic compounds but there are still lots of exceptions and trivial names which aren't regular. These are just alifatic hydrocarbons, when cyclic or aromatic hydrocarbons are included, things tend to get a bit more difficult. And these are only hydrocarbons, imagine the millions of other organic compounds that contain other elements like oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur,...

    i joined an online school late and they barely bothered helping me out. I had to teach myself everything from my textbooks. it takes so long and i am such a slacker that I never caught up. so here I am, learning my coursework on youtube for my exams next week. shouldn't have wasted my money.
