Who else had difficulty hearing “ Sigma bonds” without visualizing weird faces PPLE on TikTok make when they do something cool, and call it ‘Sigma’? This was a tough video to watch 😂

[@icced_lattae4864]

You have no idea how much this has helped me. No one could help me visualize how orbitals exist properly. I wish you much more success in the future

[@chemistry.student]

Thank you! Good luck :)

[@chrisgorden4882]

Outstanding. Thank you so much for the clear explanation and high quality visualizations.

[@chemistry.student]

Thank you! Glad it helped :)

Absolutely brilliant. Couldn't be better, helped so much thank you 😆🙏

Thank you! Glad it helped :)

[@seohyeonchoi2150]

Thank you so much! my teacher was ill and had us learning by ourselves and I couldn't understand it. your visuals are soooo helpful!

[@mohamedismail777]

Fantastic video, the best explanation of Sigma and Pi bonds I came across, great detail and still simple to understand. Thank you

[@chemistry.student]

Thank you! Really glad it helped :)

[@cpf24]

This is the only video that made this concept click for me! Thank you so much!

This is a miracle thank u 😭

[@user-rb1vm4ex1h]

This is A-level in the UK and I'm so pissed that they're making us take this at 15 years old in my country

[@humanbeing6234]

Normal

[@NadaGdeisat-no9yg]

Which country is this?

[@sibilansnel]

I do think our school system is lax compared to others 😅

[@abdullahqayyum1240]

A level students in my country do this at 16, not that big of a deal

[@sylvieonyoutube.]

We do it as 14 year olds

[@mejamoni3091]

Underrated channel - thank you so much ☺🙏

This is good.

Wait, isn't the sigma bond in O2 the overlap of sp2 orbitals not p? Or did I miss something?

[@udayammanikumaran9744]

🎉excellent

[@chemistry.student]

Thank you for watching! :)

[@physicsa-levels4859]

Is there a video where you discuss and explain the different types of orbitals : Spdf etc. im struggling to understand those

[@chemistry.student]

Yes! czcams.com/video/2nYTKP8QvfQ/video.html Hope it helps :)

[@gauravjyotid.kalita3417]

Plenty more on the way!

U are a very underrated channel ❤🎉🎉😅

[@OP-do7rt]

wow

[@blue-fg6wu]

Why should a pi bond be above and below does that not mean you have 1 pair from sigma and 2 pairs from pi making 3 pairs of electrons?

[@mejamoni3091]

No - the 2 p orbitals overlap BUT remember that they only have one electron in each orbital not two. So when the orbitals overlap - despite there being two places of overlap they can only form one bond where there are two electrons therefore making a single pi pond. So there is 1 pi bond + 1 sigma bond = double bond. Hope this helps :)

[@blue-fg6wu]

@@mejamoni3091 thanks 👍

[@Mana-xz3tn]

is it for cie?

[@chemistry.student]

Yes, in the specification its under section 3.4, point 2a. Hope that helps.
