In 20 minutes, you included so much data, reasons, explanation. Every second of this video was useful and important. Thank you, I came to see the polyprotic acids and some general trends, I'll leave with not needing to memorise the strong acids by heart and understanding so much more.
This is an awesome video, truly. Everything is explained very well. Wish I would have had these when I was a student. I’m using your playlist to help prepare to teach chemistry this school year. You are an amazing teacher! Thank you!
Gen chem question not just in context of this video but the whole course, it's been stumping me: When only comparing electronegativity differences between bonds, does higher polarity = stronger bonds? Like comparing the bonds in HF to H2O to NH3. Or for intramolecular bond strength, should I focus more on bond length, size, etc?
In general yes - if you compare the example of zero difference in electronegativity as having the most covalent character (pure covalent) and gradually getting more polar until its so polar that the bonding electrons are given away as ions. It's one way to look at it if it helps you
HF is a weak acid when compared to stronger acids like HCl, H2SO4, and similarly its conjugate base F- is also stronger base compared to the conjugate bases of HCl (the Cl-) or H2SO4 (HSO4-) because an acid have an inverse relation with its base (as mentioned in the video) therefore strong acid gives weak base (more stable). Now, while HF is a weak acid, it is still more acidic than fluoride F-, hence fluoride F- is a stable (weak) base comparatively. So the two contrasting statements mentioned in the video are actually used in comparison to different molecules:)
More oxygen more acidic. It's only when you have the same number of oxygens when you compare the electronegativity of the heteroatom. Edit: Nevermind, HClO3 is a strong acid. It's stronger than the weak acid. Edit2: Nevermind again, HClO3 isn't a strong acid. I was probably right from the begining.

Glad the channel/video is helping you - Happy Studying!
Thank you Chad for your time and knowledge. It is appreciated more than you know!
Glad the channel is helping you, Davis - Happy Studying!
everyone say thank you chad
Happy Studying, everyone!
You're helping me survive graduate Water Pollution Chem, thank you for your work Chad, spreading free knowledge is a BEYOND honorable act.
Glad the channel is helping you, Aaron!

You're very welcome and thank you for the kind words - Happy Teaching!
Thank you so much, my professor said she watches some of your stuff and learn still too. All this to say - Chad for president. Thank you
You're welcome and Happy Studying!
Much needed literally miles better than my current chem teacher 😢
Glad the channel is helping you.
Thank you Dr Chad for your assistance, this is very helpful
Glad to hear it and you are welcome
You are SO much better than my Chem Professor. Thank you Thank you!
Happy to help!
one of the best chemistry video i've seen very helpful. Thank you
You're welcome.
Awesome video. Your teaching is amazingly concise and accurate; plus you have an awesome voice! I’m sure your students really appreciate you.
Many thanks!
Absolutely You made life EASIER, Thank You So much💝
You're welcome and Thank You.

You truly are a Chad! Thank you for your amazing teaching!
You're welcome.
Hey RUclips, other people need to see these lessons!
You tell 'em!
Thank you Sir! This was an amazing video ❤
You're welcome and Thank You!
Chad- you are the best. Love your videos and love that you love our lord.
Thank you very much - Blessings!
Another banger-thank you!
You bet!
Thank you
Very welcome
5:04 but we said that HF is a weak acid, so how come a strong conjugate acid is a weak acid
HF is a weak acid when compared to stronger acids like HCl, H2SO4, and similarly its conjugate base F- is also stronger base compared to the conjugate bases of HCl (the Cl-) or H2SO4 (HSO4-) because an acid have an inverse relation with its base (as mentioned in the video) therefore strong acid gives weak base (more stable). Now, while HF is a weak acid, it is still more acidic than fluoride F-, hence fluoride F- is a stable (weak) base comparatively.

Would HClO3 be stronger than HBrO4?
More oxygen more acidic. It's only when you have the same number of oxygens when you compare the electronegativity of the heteroatom.
Edit: Nevermind, HClO3 is a strong acid. It's stronger than the weak acid.
Edit2: Nevermind again, HClO3 isn't a strong acid. I was probably right from the begining.
HClO3 is a strong acid. @@HappyGardenOfLife
Great
Thank you
