I would like to know who are the 39 dislikes on this video.this instructor was able to make me understand a subject that I couldn't understand for years. This guy is amazing 👏 he ha a perfekt way to explain a subject.
i got it in a few minutes
Probably bots
A glitch in the matrix?
I love how you explain WHY you do what you do. Like, how you count the aditional zeroes as a mesure of how accuratly you've mesured things. It makes everything so incredibly easy to understand, when I know WHY it is done! ^^
Awesome!
@@MathAndScience :o
I never understood any of this in high school but you really explain it so effortlessly that I think I’m going to be ready for my college chemistry course
Good luck in your studies!
Same here!
I can't just read a book about math or chemistry and be expected to understand it. That's just not the way I learn. These videos have been AMAZING and helped me actually understand what my reading has been trying to explain to me :) Thank you!
Me too! These videos are a blessing!
I would honestly pay good money to have this guy personally tutor me. Everything comes across so clearly and he really dumbs it down for everyone to understand. Thanks for posting these videos 👍
It's settle!
An interested learner + a good teacher = a powerful student.
I'm a 57 year old retired firefighter....But, here I am watching THIS playlist....Hmmm.....
He’s very good good good
im here at 46 --- Mostly we both had crapy chem teachers in h-s...
I’m a 43 year old nursing student with absolutely no retirement or savings here watching this 🎉🎉🎉🎉👍🤣
What a seasoned teacher you are. Permit me to say this is obviously your calling. Thank you
Wow thank you!
Best Lessons Online, I have finally found a lesson that is easy to follow which starts from scratch and builds up knowledge at a steady pace, thankyou so much Jason, loving your lessons !!!
You are so very welcome!
Oh my god,you are an angel. I am very grateful to find you in CZcams. Sending you a lot of blessings. I am taking CHE121 after 20 years of taking my first chemistry class, so you are very helpful to me and encouraging me to go forward to have a bright future. Thank you so much
These are the best chemistry lessons in my life.good luck sir
Perfectly understood. Thinking about the "weakest link" is the easiest way, for instance in the case where 151 + 4,16 + 0,0220 ends up as just 155, if you had 151,000 + 4,160 + 0,0220 instead then you would keep the whole 155,138 as the final answer.
English is not even my main language, yet I find the explanations crystal clear. Keep it coming!
trying to improve my chemistry during this quarantine :)
same here buddy. And I'm only 12
LOL

I am 17
Love your teaching style!
Thanks
excellent presentation, I learn more in two hours than in 4 weeks with my instructor
Watching these videos before my summer chemistry class puts me at a great advantage
How did it go? I am about to take it for summer as well
This vlog was amazingly well done and very clear on the rules! You are a very effective instructor
I've decided to watch all of your basic chemistry videos because your way of teaching is so reassuring.
This is amazing how great you are in explaining stuff!!! :)
Recently decided to take on chemistry so glad I came across your channel
You're a flipn awesome teacher!
I taught that I won't succeed chemistry and I realize that I will do it. Thank you teacher
You can definitely do it! Keep at it!
That teacher is the best teacher among all teachers on the you tube awesome explanation cuz he knows the material very well
Forever grateful for this amazing educator!!
what university do you teach at? would love to take your classes. I love how well you explain things and make it so much easier.
he used to work at nasa
Seems like high school stuff to me, not sure though.
university? u mean middle school?
Just because he's teaching something basic here doesn't mean he's unqualified to teach anything higher. Unfortunately a lot of retards (two specifically) think in that way
@@moneymoney3780 It's chem/physics, it's at least highschool level lol
I'm very excited to be on this course
Thank you for your videos they explain everything simply and
Thank you for all you do. Always looking for the next science I’ll figure out
This vidoes are really helpful. Thank you.
thanks Jason, its so helpful!
Really enjoying your lessons. Jason, thank you for posting!
As a biochemistry major, this guy has done more to simplify the general chemistry math than any of my professors.
Thank you ! Love ur lessons
I really appreciate this during this pandemic thank you
Thank you Mr. Jason, I've been trying to understand this in my physics but with your teachings I can say it's really not difficult. Thank you ✌️💯
Dude how many boards you really have behind there!?🤣🤔
Maybe 20…lol 😂
He is really good and hope he don’t fall in the board container after reaching the last board.😂
2√
20 it's 20
Thank you for asking wondering the same thing
Crazy to think, all this free knowledge and only a handful have listened
What an amazing teacher
Awww thanks!
My Chemistry Teacher was excellent but due to being a child, teen carer to my Mother i was unable to focus the way i wanted too but i did well in the pre exams then i stopped i so enjoy this 💜
I'm blessed to watch this video
Thanks sir we really appreciate your efforts .
You have become boast the motivation in me
Your a good teacher am in s.4 in Uganda am on my final year but you have helped me so much
What is s4?
It's been pretty C00L learning this man, thanks!
Just love it amazing stuff
EXCELENTE
What I loved the most u state a point knowing it would be need to get a problem clear later to avoid confusion very good teacher
As in right here I IMMEDIATELY knew what was to be done because of a previous point u made @44:35
This video is really needed to understand higher level math 🧮 and science 🧪 so thank you so much 😊
Wow,i have never been taught like this before. Permit me to say that you sir, are gifted.❤
So your actual answer is only as accurate as your least accurate info.
HAHAHAHA
Thank you for breaking it down..I finally understand!
I really like the way you teach and I understand lot of things😊
44:40 ^_^ rly lead up to that lightbulb moment at 45:05
it blows my mind at just how easily digestible Jason is able to make his lessons...I had my first stress cry of the semester a few days ago the night of our first quiz xD and mind you, I'm not even seeking a degree..I'm literally just taking ~thee one~ chemistry course for fun-sies..I particularly enjoy the intersection of chemistry, neuroscience, and psychology...it's fascinating shit tbh! but I missed the first week of coursework and couldn't remember the most basic of things..I seriously thought 'omg..I'm actually super dumb" and was baalling for a moment loll..my ego couldn't take it.. I got a 40 on the quiz for those curious xD I'm not so concerned with a score though..I care about genuinely learning the material :) Soo, as long as I can keep the materials, go at my pace, and I'm chillin ^_^ Supplementing my coursework with this playlist is really going to be a game-changer. I'm so grateful and appreciative..Jason makes comprehending the lessons so easy! ...many thanks to Jason and to anyone else who made the production of such material possible. You guy's deserve all thee recognition :') omg im gonna cry again, I'm leaving xD
Mr Jason is a brilliant teacher
thank you very much, Thanks to you I now understand this much better
Your teaching is very good sir.
Very thorough.
BRAVO 👏🏾 BRAVO 🙌🏾 BRAVO 🎉. You Rock Jason.
You have saved my chemistry life!
Yes!
You're the best teacher!
Could you make a video on rounding number rules next time??
I was scared of chemistry. I'm 40 years old. I shy away in school. But I'm studying this now. I'm not sure I will use it. This will give fulfilment to conquer that fear and to get satisfaction. Thanks.
I am binge watching this series during my holiday break! I love the way you teach.
Thank you!
I'm doing the same! Trying to get ready for my 8 wk summer semester. I've got Chemistry and microbiology, I'm hoping to understand most of it by then. This channel is great!
@@sabrinamiller1290 Good luck!! You got this. I just took my first Chemistry test and got a 95%
Awesome video!🙏🤩
I appreciate this, thank you
Very good teacher
You are amazing
hi sir, i am a 7th grade student stucked in quarantine, your videos are great! it prevents me from getting dumber and dumber day by day. plus it helps me do self study, thanks!
Awesome! Good luck in your studies!
Thank you Professor! God bless you ❤
You are very welcome
Knowledge is power.
omg you are the best. i am doing chemistry in the fall i am sure ill be acing it
Great teacher
Thank you!
YOU ARE AWESOME!!!!
thank you so much!
Good teaching
this guy Is awesome
THANK YOU...SIR...!!!
All teachers must watch to learn
Thanks for your first three videos. I watched the short one but too broke to continue learning here. I am very happy to finally be able to figure out how many balls I have. Thank you.,
Thank you thank you so much
Recently started watching your videos and it is highly informative and useful. Couldnt find vifeos from episode 4 in chemistry. Please help me to find those. Thank you
Thank you❤
40:55 let’s just say it was 151.0 that’s definitely an exact measurement.
Love your videos!!
I'm quitting tobacco and it's changing the way I think about time in countless different ways.
Thank you
thank you sir
Great explanations! Reminds me of HS chemistry-- but we used a slide rule! LoL
thanks
Today i just watching and very happy already e really sabi
you a awesome person!!! thank you
Thanks so much!
According to the rule that trailing zero after a decimal point are counted, can you explain how in 23:49 how that number could be anything else other then 3 S.D? Because, 100 is 3 S.D and, if it were to be 0.000100 it will still be 3 S.D. Unless you mean if there could be more trailing zeros at the end of 100, Which would make sense. Thanks for all your help I've never been good at chemistry or even math at that matter and trying to relearn and you're really helping me out!
Nice
Now how do I get to have you as my chemistry tutor? Your teaching style is awesome!
I got the app, but what about video tutoring options?
i will take Pharmacy nxt yr so im watching every lessons u made sir haha hope i can survive that course lol
Awesome video thank you! The part at the end is really important. I was trying to figure out how we would change 4800 to just 3 significant digits. Thanks!!
Awesome!
Jason, MathAndScience.com
Yeah, FWIW, it seems like that is the central intuition. For a number like 702, if you are confident in the precision of that 2, then you are certainly even more confident in the precision of the zero, and consider that significant. Because with the 2 you’re measuring a precision of how many ones; with zero you’re measuring precision of how many tens. Bigger things are much easier to measure precisely, so if you are confident you can measure the smaller thing quite precisely, then you would certainly be confident that you can measure the bigger thing quite precisely, and even more precisely.
Wow , 🥰🥰🥰
Wonderful
Gracias, aprendo inglés y químa a la vez.
por dos lol
You make everything make so much sense that now I believe I’m really smart for getting the correct answers 😂
thank u
You sir.... I love you
thank youuu
