ms. osorio...

[sarahhbearass]

i want dip n' dots now

[PEACELOVE1034]

i have a test tomorrow & i had no idea how to do this until i watched this video, thanks!(:

[abaziky98]

Thank u so much I learned a lot... my science teacher can't teach for her life.

[zxcadef]

Thanks that helped me a lot!

[TheAwsomefool]

THANK YOU!!! I know i will do good in my final tomorrow!!

[mtn2park]

great video. really helped me grasp it. but how would you draw the dot structure for an element such as tin, which has an atomic number of 50?

[Papapodcasts]

@mtn2park You wouldn't be drawing such an atom as an electron dot diagram. If so, you would need to draw only the valence electrons, which can range from typically 1-8 valence electrons.

[mtn2park]

@Papapodcasts thanks! i realized that the atomic number is irrelevant, since the dots symbolize the number of valence electrons.

[5193danny]

@ninja66gasp should be 17??

[FLAMINGGASTLY27]

Oh my God! Thank you so much! This so beats my teachers way of teaching. I can get all of my education from YouTube. Awesome!

[Puffleduck]

Oh my goodness! Why couldn't my teacher explain it like this? I should just drop out of school and get a YouTube diploma

[cungnhauvuinhe7114]

Nice video dude, Thanks

[chuchay785]

8 people did not pass their test :D

[PiscesonMojave]

Are you kidding, this is all there is. Why cant the instructors find the easiest way to explain as you do. Thank you, thank you than you....I think i love you

[Nicola72av]

That's a very beautiful lesson! :)

You're a very good teacher: your lessons are very clear! :)

Dear Michelino, I send you a dear greeting from Italy... :)

[breathed1]

thanks for the help..needed it!

[bigcman321]

Thank you so much! Loving all these help videos on youtube! This is really helpful!

[emilyjadeify]

thank you, this really helps.

i have a test on tuesday.

it will be covering covalent and ionic electron dot diagrams, writing formulas, and conductivity.

I UNDERSTAND NONE OF IT!

i hate school >.<

[BigBadNightWolf]

thankyou so much!! test tomorrow.. this helps a bunch!!!

[RyanFitch18]

This is a very use full movie. Thank you.

[Kristianvid]

holy crap man can you be my teacher

[mbsurfrider]

dude thank you so much! i have watched all of these videos including the naming polyatomics and such. i have my final tomoroow and i just don't get it because my teacher is horrible. however your explanations have helped me so much and i know i will do amazing on my final tomorrow!!!!!!! thank you so much!!!!!!

[Papapodcasts]

@mbsurfrider I'm glad I was able to help you. I wish you best of luck on your final. Let me know how you do.

Mr.P

[makaykay155]

Omg, thanks so much i have my science exam tomorrow and last time i had a science test my dad showed me your video!!!

Thanks so much, u explain it so much easier than my teacher :D

[liam9497]

Thank you so much, my teacher never helped me understand this in a month, and you were able to in 4 minutes with a powerpoint through a video. That's teaching talent.

I wish you were my teacher for science!

[IDanceInTheSky]

what the teacher couldnt explain to me in a week i learned in 4 minutes....maybe i should be homeschooled by youtube.

[CorpralDunn]

Thanks, have my exam tommorow, my ch. teaher has no idea how to explain such stuff. You give very easy explanations. Thanks again, mate!

[Papapodcasts]

@CorpralDunn Best of luck with your studies. Thanks for watching.

Mr.P

[230599685]

Thank you so much for this! This will definitely help me in Chemistry this year and my test coming up soon.

[melo2727]

i have my chemistry exam in like One hour.. thanks soo much for explaining this very easy :D

[Papapodcasts]

@melo2727 I hope you did well on that exam. Thanks for watching.

Mr.P

[blzrk123]

my science teacher told us that when youre drawing an electron dot diagram you have to do it UP DOWN LEFT RIGHT. not UP RIGHT DOWN LEFT. is that correct?

[Papapodcasts]

@blzrk123 It doesn't matter. It's still correct how your teacher is doing it. You'll notice when forming bonds that you will be arranging them differently to make your drawings cleaner.

Mr.P

[Papapodcasts]

@IceRide1995 I appreciate that, thank you very much. I wish everyone in Mr.F's class a great and successful year.

Mr.P

[ayala314]

i get the single ones but what when you get somethng like ClCF how would you know which to do first

[Papapodcasts]

@ayala314 Check out my video on Lewis Dot Structures. If you still have questions, let me know.

Mr.P

[adj2850]

Thank you SOOO much! My chem 090 Teacher has NO idea what she is doing and I am always so lost until I look at your videos and then I completely understand! If it weren't for you I would be failing!

[ncsugirl2013]

Thank you for this video. I am in Chemistry 100 in college and I have not taken a chemistry class since 9th grade so this really helped. I love how you go step by step and do not rush it. Thank you so much!

[sourpatchbear]

nice video

[animegirl062006]

thank you so much ;A; you helped me a lot!

[askyme]

those crayons made me feel dumb,lol

[yumsin]

thank you so much i really depend on you to understand this class.

[Wetwillieproduction1]

within first 19 sec i knew how to do thx

[willzurmacht]

Thank you sooo muchoo!! :)

[Belinzma]

Dude u made my life soooo much easier I am thankful u do this Chemistry is ur thing may god bless u from up their u c how thins get easier when u explain it step biii step :D thanks again!

[Papapodcasts]

@Belinzma Thank you very much for those kind words and for taking the time to share that with me. I wish you all the best with your studies. God bless.

Mr.P

[TheAcehoodz]

@Papapodcasts God doesnt exist dumbass

[animegirl062006]

@TheAcehoodz this is really rude to enforce your beliefs on someone. and then make them feel badly about it. just sayin'.

[sickcombos]

@Papapodcasts is this correct:

filtration is used to separate insoluble solid from liquid? OR

filtration is used to separate liquid fron insoluble solid? OR

both are same?

plz answer me.

[soccerchamp95]

really helpful

[orangecandy29]

Awesome!!!! I love your videos..I've been reading my book for hours now, and still confuse as ever, but when I watched your videos, it made everything sooooo easy!!! Thank you, thank you!

[Papapodcasts]

@orangecandy29 Thank you so much for those kind words. I'm really glad that my videos have been able to help you with your studies. I agree, sometimes the textbooks can be confusing and that sometimes we need a good visual to understand various concepts. I wish you best of luck with your studies. All the best.

Mr.P

[fstball4110]

Thanks a bunch man great video!

[mystery1229]

Good video! Very informative! Thank you for helping me understand Lewis Dot Structures! LIKE!

[altargirl89]

this is so helpful

[rajhetti6]

thank you so much

[dalena533]

Thank you so much !

[KawaiiDustBunny]

THANK YOU SO MUCH! ;D

[berryxboo]

i thought CL has 17 electrons?

[Papapodcasts]

Yes it does have 17 electrons, but it has 7 valence electrons and those are the electrons shown when drawing electron dot or Lewis dot diagrams, especially when drawing VSEPR shapes. Thanks for watching.

Mr.P

[berryxboo]

where do you get 7 from?

[Papapodcasts]

The 7 are what we call valence electrons. These are the electrons that are involved with bonding. All 17 electrons are not involved with bonding with other atoms. Only the electrons on the outer shells are involved with bonding.

Mr.P

[ronsiew]

@berryxboo Yes, a chlorine atom does have 17 electron, but following from what Papapodcats said, it has a valence of 7 electron because around the nucleus, the first shell takes up 2 electron, the second one takes up 8 electron and that leaves 7 electron on the outer shell.

[LaRawRx]

Aren't you supposed to fill up the s- block valence electrons first before you fill up the p- block? Like, when you had the dot above the Cl atom, shouldn't you fill in 2 before you go onto the p- block, because the s has to be filled before you move onto the next shell?

[Papapodcasts]

Yes it's true, that's why Cl needs one more electron to fill its p-shell

[looloozeto]

i have a quastion.. how about the phosphorus it's 15 should i count it 5 !

thnx..

[Papapodcasts]

Yes you are correct. It would have 5 valence electrons around it. Thanks for watching, best of luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[looloozeto]

ur wlcome teacher =P

[kaysthe1]

thanks!

[bush1a]

OMG THX SOOOOO MUCH UR THE BEST

[blueeyedgirl2145]

I hope that you are a science teacher because this helped A LOT!

thank you

[hotzulu3]

thanks

[laurel32100]

Thank you so much! This makes sense to me now.

[rancidBubble]

Does this apply to two elements as well? (eg: CS) Or just one?

Btw thanks for the vid.. :]

[Papapodcasts]

It can but only if you intend to show their bonds. Thanks for watching. Best of luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[pink3rbellx]

Thank you so much for making these, this one helped a lot.

I agree with PetePuma, far better explained than my teacher.

[Papapodcasts]

Thanks for watching. You are too kind.  Remember that all us teachers have a different style. Best of luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[0821anonymous]

hey can you help me, how do you know how much dots to put around an element?

[Papapodcasts]

Exactly how the video explains it, but first you need to find the number of valence electrons. The valence electrons can be found by using the group number. Group 1 atoms have 1 valence, group 2 have 2 valence electrons. Now move over to Group 13 atoms and they have 3 valence electrons, Group 14 have 4 valence electrons, etc. Only exception for the first 20 atoms is Helium which is in Group 18, but has 2 valence electrons. Thanks for watching and best of luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[nygiantfan101]

Can you help me learn the vsper diagram im confused on that and the exceptions and getting the polarity from the vsper diagram.

[Papapodcasts]

Hey there, thanks for watching. I do have several VSPER diagram videos on here so check them out. Let me know if they are helpful. Best of luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[PetePuma00]

You explained this way better than my chem prof. Thanks!

[Papapodcasts]

Thank you so much for the kind words. We all have different styles of teachings. Best of luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[wwwwvwwwwv]

How would you do cobalt?

[Papapodcasts]

For atoms beyond the first 20 atoms of the periodic table you usually use the s and p orbitals. The s and p orbitals for cobalt is: 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 3d^7 4s^2, where the valence electrons are found in the 3d^7 4s^2 orbitals which are the last 2 energy levels. I hope this was helpful to you. Best of luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[kanwalnisa]

thank you very much I have exam tomorrow.

[Papapodcasts]

Thank you for watching my video. Best of luck on tomorrows exam. Let me know how you do.

Mr.P

[cosmicism]

i like this presentation, the only literate one i found on utube

Mr.P

[kara0k3]

lol! that actually really helped. thanks! its good to know i won't fail my exam in june =)

[pgdramaqueen37]

If you could do a video on the VESPR Theory that would help me out ALOT!!

how can i memorize all of the angles and such??

[Papapodcasts]

Hey there,

not much that can be done about VSEPR theory. You have no choice but to memorize them :( however, I am in the midst of finishing my lesson on it so stay posted for it.

Mr.P

[bunchanumbers4192207]

Mr.P

[MinkyBinks]

swell job. :)

[Papapodcasts]

Thank you. Good luck with your studies.

Mr.P

[GIzzy7]

great vid but how do you determine the number of valence electrons an element has?

[Papapodcasts]

Hey there,

Well you'd have the watch the videos in order (iTunes has them in accordance to episode number). The video in question is on the Periodic Table. But to answer your question, to find the number of valence electrons, look at the group number. If the group number are written from 1 to 18, Groups 13 - 18, drop the 1 in front. So if Oxygen is in Group 16, therefore it has 6 valence electrons. Group numbers are the number at the top of the periodic table. Good luck.

Mr.P

[all4green]

what happens when you get to something like Cobalt or Nickel though? what do you do?

[sokaplaya923]

thanks so much for this i was so confused until now!

[dramaprincess69]

thankyou so much! this video actually helped me a lot, to see and hear it.. my teacher that i see in FLESH N SKIN in class is like a robot, and i'm not learning ANYTHING in his class and i've got an exam tomorrow on all this chem stuff.... thanks so much !

[wichywashy]

Great stuff !

[macinray]

Thanks :) that helped me on my hw!

[Papapodcasts]

I'm glad I could help. Feel free to email me if you have any questions.
