  • "Let me clear out some real estate" hahaha god I'm so thankful for this man!!!!

  • Thanks a lot Sal! Your videos are extremely helpful!

  • the last example made me like "OH SHIT I GOT IT!"

  • You're a genius.

  • Wow ideed he is something else. And the program he uses is pretty cool too. Does anyone knows the program's name?

  • @Ronaldo9633 like yahoo doodlepad

  • can't explain the relief that I feel after seeing this video...I'll pass in my test now! Thank you Sal

  • Which video,comes in logical sequence,to this one..?

  • so does having a chiral carbon means its automatically a chiral molecule as well??

  • @TheLonghairraven No, not necessarily, watch the video again, in the later part you'll see that the cyclopentane has 2 chiral atoms, but the molecule as a WHOLE is superimposable hence not a Chiral MOLECULE. :) So it depends, you must analyse it correctly.

  • DR. Khan!!! Thank you I wish i could repay you for doing what my Ochem professor couldn't...teach.

  • good job on the vid, dr. khan, but I have a question- what role does the fluorine play in determining chirality at 7:20

  • good job on the vid, dr. khan

  • Isn’t the 1,3-Diflourocyclopentan achiral if the fluorine groups are pointing in the same direction but chiral if one of them is pointing out of the plane and the other into the plane?

  • im going to destroy my ochem midterm tmo, thank you

  • who the fuck disliked this? -_-

  • @wtfizzjus Khan-Nemesis did.

  • Nevermind. :)

  • If you have individual chiral centres in a molecule, would the whole molecule be chiral?

  • homochirality proves evolution can never happen,evolutionists would rather believe in some chemistry unknown to science

  • HOLY CRAP U DID CHEM ASWELL HAHA

  • One problem with the difluoro cyclopntane compond: it has Z and E izomers and can be Chiral

  • Actually how do you name the molecule at the beginning of the video? How do you name the hydroxide? I know that fluorine becomes fluoro, chlorine becomes chloro. What does hoydroxide become? Hydroxo?

  • @dalcde Hydroxy :)

  • Ki-rall and not Cheer-rill? I have been wrong this entire time??

  • Comment removed

  • @FreemanFighter94 Yes, Chiral is pronounced like Cairo, Egypt. Or like Chiropractor.

  • @TsuruCrane no its not lol...its pronounced "Kiral"

  • Where were you when I was taking AP Chemistry last year???

  • first person to watch this video!

    Sal, great work with the organic chemistry, i really think your filling a conceptual niche thats lacking with this subject on youtube, if you would not mind can you thoroughly explain stereo-chemistry, and acid/base chemistry as it relates to organic chemistry and reactivity,

    P.S. Can you organize the organic chemistry into a playlist please? Thanks alot for these videos Sal!
