This video answers an important question-WHY should you study Chemistry, especially if you’re not planning on majoring in Chem. The truth is, Chemistry is a prerequisite for almost every STEM subject. Many fields of science, engineering, and medicine require a solid grounding in chemistry concepts. That’s why Chemistry is often referred to as “The Central Science.” In this video we’ll talk briefly about the history of the subject-when did Chemistry actually start? And then we’ll dive into the various ways learning Chemistry will help you in Astronomy, Biology, Geology, Physics, Engineering and Material Science, and more. Finally, we’ll look at the ways the study of Chemistry can be organized into 5 major branches: organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, and biochemistry. Keep in mind, that isn’t the one and only way to organize the subject, just one of the common ways you’ll see the field subdivided. ⬣⬣⬣ LESSON CHAPTERS: 0:00 Introduction-Chemistry seems random 2:03 Alchemy 4:56 Natural Philosophers (early chemists) 6:05 Chemistry is the Central Science 7:14 Chemistry in Biology 10:09 Chemistry in Astronomy 10:56 Chemistry in Geology 11:31 Chemistry in Engineering 12:40 Chemistry in Physics 14:13 Branches of Chemistry 15:03 Organic Chemistry 15:31 Inorganic Chemistry 15:53 Physical Chemistry 16:28 Analytical Chemistry 16:53 Biochemistry SUBSCRIBE so you never miss a video! bit.ly/SocraticaSubscribe
Wonderful video! I'm currently enrolled in a material engineering program mainly based on organic chemistry and I didn't have any chemistry background before. I second what she said, I would never consider myself as someone who has access to the whole field. But I'm still grateful for having this opportunity, it's a really fascinating field to study.
Chemistry is very special. In the 19th century it was studied without knowing the fundamental laws, ie, quantum mechanics. People used basic physics, including thermodynamics, and applied that to chemistry. The entire periodic table was discovered without any knowledge of Quantum Mechanics. In a way, it was studied like a serious social science: we observed the results and used basic physics (thermodynamics) to organize the mess. Then the physicists, through Rutheford, found out that the atomic structure (mini planetary system) was totally inconsistent with the laws of physics. They did not trash chemistry, they updated physics. This gave us Quantum Mechanics. From Quantum Mechanics, we can explain some basic chemistry (with a big enough computer). With pencil and paper, it is hard to go beyond the hydrogen molecule. (Linus Pauling did it in his book being a chemist) Chemistry is the only field of science where a complete top-down and bottom-up approach meet. Question: do you think that chemistry should spend a little more time on Quantum Mechanics? We study classical physics, and then in chemistry class we are not told clearly how the 20th century physicists finally connected Chemistry with Physics. That turned me off and I became a physicist. Nice video.
Science is divided into subjects only to help in the teaching process. There are no real boundaries. You can extend your “biology requires chemistry” argument to say “chemistry requires physics”. A real understanding of chemistry requires some knowledge of quantum mechanics and thermodynamics. But it wouldn’t be possible to do all chemistry from physics principles (the mathematics is too hard) so a set of rules is used arranged into subjects like orbital mechanics, organic chemistry, etc.
The alchemists didn't have a warped sense of logic. The concept of logic wasn't really developed yet. Logic is... Logical to us, but it is something we had to learn. The concept can be observed in children (and even some adults) but only to a certain degree. Most people have a very hard time extending logic to things that aren't directly connected to the current subject of discussion. Now that I think about it, Socratica should have lessons in formal logic, and "theory of knowledge".
@@andersonliqui6829 woah! i wanna be a chemist in the future too. that's why i joined the chemistry club at our school when there were many choices to choose from!
A slow and steady way of explaining a science subject, to generate an interest and curiosity which attracts non-scientific thinking learners to learn and understand what we cannot see with our naked eyes, i.e. the microscopic realm. Tq so much dear tutor and Socratica.
Oi Kimberly🧚♀️. Você acha que eventual descoberta futura de supercondutores, em temperatura ambiente, pela química pode trazer muitos benefícios para a Humanidade ?
i love how theres that one alchemist that distilled gallons of piss trying to make gold. well, it made something yellow and solid (phosphorus) not gold. god it must've smelled so bad
There's a problem with Astronomy and Chemistry though isn't there: Sodium - metal - OK... Carbon - metal - Uuuuum... Sulphur - yeah, metal - What? ... Nitrogen - METAL - Now, look stop this nonsense now! ;)
The role of a teacher is to take a wide-ranging topic, organize it, and filter out what is minutia for a later, perhaps deeper look at the subject. Without this proper organization, much can be taught but little learned and remembered. Funny that so many high-paid college professors accept the role of teaching without understanding the essence of what and how to organize. Dogmatists all.
To be fair to the ancient alchemists, we still make up explanations for things we do not truly understand. Even if those explanations may not directly attribute gods or spirits, they are rarely less deified.

I bet Kim and her students have a good chemistry. This is quite informative
Love the way you snuck in the chemistry joke! 💜🦉

You mean another pathetic quota
Lol😂

@andersonliqui6829 good luck!
The ethimology of the therm alchemia surprised me.
One of the best videos I have seen on RUclips. Thank you.

This video is literally the best thing that has ever happened to me in a while!
Goodness thank you for watching and for such a nice comment. 💜🦉
Everything feels unrelated... even when i was in my first year... we doesnt even have a textbook 🤣
I feel the same way in my first year 👍
I'm glad miss you are so sweet ...when u talk ma mind image and analyze what you are talk about i get more and more from u and like loveeee chemistry
Thanks for your excellent explnation about chemstry.

what about the scientific method? does the scientific method render made-up explanations in chemistry?
Seems like a pretty common human trait!
Chemistry is 10eV physics.
