CrackOChem_OChem Basics I - pt 7

This video picks up right where the General Chemistry Review video leaves off. After solidifying the key concepts from general chemistry, you're ready to start learning the fundamentals of organic chemistry. Here we talk about sources of reactivity...how to figure out which atoms/compounds are going to react and why. This includes formal charge, partial charge, functional groups, and resonance. We also introduce the concept of moving electrons and the curved arrows we use to represent that movement. Enjoy!

About The Tutor

Garrett is a Harvard graduate. While earning his doctorate from the Harvard School Of Dental Medicine, he was hired by the university to propose and develop educational videos to complement the curriculum. During this time he worked with instructors at the medical and dental school to produce video tutorials in the areas of neurobiology, cardiology, pharmacology, radiology and pre-clinical dental laboratory.

However, Garrett's love for tutoring and helping students be able to understand complex subjects in a simple manner began with organic chemistry. He was initially told by his family, friends and instructors that organic chemistry would be the worst class he would ever take in college. Fortunately, with a lot of sweat, a few tears, and plenty of dry erase markers, Garrett was able to "crack the code" behind organic chemistry. In the process, he discovered a technique to teach ochem in a logical, straight forward manner, and the "CrackOChem" project was born. He spent the next several years developing this technique and passing it on to others through university organic chemistry tutorials, a study club, and organic polymer research. He was later hired by the University of California, Irvine for a full time position teaching advanced tutorials in chemistry and biology, and was also responsible for the hiring, training, and managing of university tutors.

Garrett is currently in orthodontic residency, but continues to actively help students through tutoring and future editions of organic chemistry video tutorials.

how do you the lewis structure so fast? did i miss something? or do you just know it?
