Thank you for studying with me! I’m improving and adding to this series this year so I hope you’ll stay with me this year while I make those improvements.
Carol Tyler, Hungry for knowledge huh? I like your style because I am too. I loved Chemistry in high school but I only took 1 quarter in College before my College's transition to the Semester System. If I had it to do over again, I probably would have majored in Chemistry, more specifically GeoChemistry.

I wish I had you in high school. My chemistry ‘teacher’ said here- memorize this by next week. I dropped the class - so so love physical geology now. 50 years later lol
Thats cool last time i saw the periodic table it did not have the formation in stars portion, very neat! Especially when you think about how rare the heavy elements really are, or should be unless there were alot more neutron stars in the past which is quite possible dunno.
I am absolutely thrilled that I found this site. After struggling with this concept, I finally “get it”!!! Thank you for sharing your “gift” of teaching.
Loving this class. I noticed that COVID created an environment in which instructors like I assume you are, were put in a position where you had to make digital content or at least record your classes. And so if COVID did have any good to it, it was that folks like yourself decided to share your content with us. I already went to college and with 3 kids going back is an impossible challenge at the moment. But I never want to stop learning and this is what I would expect taking this in a classroom setting. And no homework unless i want to go look at a road cut or go rock hounding. Thank you. 😊
Thank you for this wonderful feedback! I put most of my lectures up back prior to COVID (2014 for the very first videos) just because I felt people might have an interest. I figured maybe 50-100 people would watch. The public response has been overwhelming. Thank you for studying with me.
Such wholesome enthusiasm and pedagogy! Thank you for sharing knowledge in a captivating way. Wish you more subscribers because this channel deserves it. Very grateful indeed, always learning something new here. Sending peace and blessings.
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and offering us the opportunity to learn about geology (and other fields). I am highly interested in geology and through your lectures you have enabled me to learn and most importantly understand a variety of fascinating topics. Thank you very much! I have been thinking about studying geology at university someday, your videos will definitely have given me a huge headstart. I will also have a look at the books mentioned in the video description. Thank you for supporting free education! Best regards from Germany!
I just learned about your lecturing series this past Christmas and didn't know it back in 2015-16 when it began. Thanks for having made this series available via YT, 👍. This 3rd lesson is harder than 2nd one even though I still like Geology in general. One thing for sure, I could never be a pharmacist in this lifetime. 👵
Thank you so really much for your lectures. You inspire me so much! I am from a small town in Ukraine and you make my world bigger! This is incredibly interesting stuff.
I've never studied such a subject in school because of being in "special lasses" to help me pass school and get a diploma. Studying all this for the first time I pretty much understood the material except the part about what is a ion and let alone why it acts the way it does. Also in the PH scale section of the video is the H in PH mean hydrogen ions???? Even though as I've stated I do not understand the ion part of the lecture. I'd say pretty good over all for myself with a learning disability.
ions are atoms (or molecules/compounds) that have an electric charge. it happens because they gain/lose one or more electrons. for example Na is sodium, but in nature it is not completely stable like that, so it tends to lose an electron, and you find it it the form of Na+ (a sodium ion, with the plus indicating a positive charge since it lost an electron), especially inside water. Cl is chlorine, and it tends to gain an electron, so you find it in the forms Cl- (a chlorine ion, with the minus indicating a negative charge due to the additional electron), especially in water. so if all the water evaporates, the Na+ and Cl- ions get left and bind together (they are attracted since they have an electric charge of opposite sign), forming a ionic bond and the compound NaCl: this is common table salt. conversely, when salt is put into water, it dissolves (the water molecules break the ionic bonds, and Na+ and Cl- ions are separated by molecules of waters), so they get back to their ionized form.
@@naakatube Thank you so much for your response! I am going to write all this down in my notes. I understand now thanks to you! You and your channel has me taking notes on every video like I was back in college. You and your video's have given me the courage to try and go back to college as well. I'm 54 yrs old and haven't been to college since 1991. I dropped out because of my learning disability but I gained courage to apply for financial aid for starters just 2 days ago. Whatever happens either way I'm so happy I finally understand about basic atomic theory/fact because of watching your video's. If I never achieve becoming a scientist (like I have wanted to since childhood) at least I now have the ability to THINK MORE like one. Thank you so much!!!!
30:44 You were doing so good up to this point. You NEVER have naked protons floating around in the environment unless you're talking about a hydrogen based plasma or some other high energy system. Acidic "protons" are actually hydronium ions H3O+.
@@EarthandSpaceSciencesX I suppose that's fair. I gather this is a geology course and not geochemistry so it's probably not terribly important at this level. It's just as a chemist calling hydrogen ions protons is a major pet peeve of mine since there are never naked protons just floating around unless you're bathed in the solar wind or hanging out inside a star. Great videos BTW. I gather you teach this professionally. Thanks for posting these so I can educate myself on the subject without paying all that pesky tuition. My chem degree already cost me way too much. 😁😁
Funny you should ask...I just created a Physics and Engineering Channel just 2 days ago. Uploading some older Conceptual Physics lectures there this week (conceptual in that there is no calculus or trigonometry). Not doing O-Chem anytime soon though I never say never.

Good Morning . What's your take on these ion detectors that claim to detect gold at a long distance? Is this possible or is it false? Thank you very much
I'm not aware of any such technology that matches that description that would work. A standard metal detector does work though and I've had some good luck prospecting using a metal detector.
I am 67 years old, retired but still anxious to learn. I am so excited that I found these videos - so helpful. Thank you!

This is so beautiful. I have always had a thousand questions for my science teachers. These vids answer a lot of those questions. Thanks.
I'm 65 and just starting these courses this week! This is a fantastic series.

I've been excited to see more of these lectures, keep em coming!
Thank you! I'm filming more right now!
Very effective presentation. An efficient learning experience...

The geometry of atoms is so cool
Nature always amazes me.
EXCELLENT lecture!
Glad you think so!
i'm a chemist, very nice overview
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your videos. I am a biology teacher here in the philippines that love geology.
Matter like human life can be transformed but not destroyed or created. Life is positive energy moving
BS
Thanks for these videos
Glad you like them!
Oh boy! Lesson 3 done! I cannot lie - this was a tough one to get through. LOL
On to Minerals!
The journey is worth it!
Thank you for your lecture!

31:34 pH is not a good measure of this. pKa is better.
That’s true in aqueous environments, but many geologic environments are considered “dry” which is why I teach this more conceptually.

suddenly my brain find windows of knowledge satisfating cool the best way to utilising our internet
Thank you so much I'm learning alot of things I had no idea were going on.
thank you for sharing
Very interesting lectures! So what is this Professor's name?
Professor Paul Patrick Day. :)
Can you do courses on organic chemistry and physics and electricity? I'd pay for it!!
Funny you should ask...I just created a Physics and Engineering Channel just 2 days ago. Uploading some older Conceptual Physics lectures there this week (conceptual in that there is no calculus or trigonometry). Not doing O-Chem anytime soon though I never say never.

When u say “probably produced” does that mean these element origins are just theory
