Carbon is probably my favourite simply due to the sheer variety of compounds you can make with it. Also, drawing organic compound is fun.

[@AdrianEmbrey1979]

I cannot thank you enough for this video. You are the first of about five videos that I've watched that explained carbon in a manner that was attainable thorough simplistic and helpful.

When you have hair like that, everyone just assumes you're a scientist. They'd probably get suspicious if his bag DIDN'T contain any weird-looking gadgets.

[@marcovtjev]

From what I remember from a brief attempt at chemistry, one of the funny things of buckyballs/fullerenes was that adding a group to one point of the ball, changed the energy (and usually making it easier) to add the group to the next position. Basically you got only a few products, all 60 positions reacted, or none at all. (or slightly less when there was steric hindrance)

he has alot of ties with all sorts of designs and periodic tables on them

[@paulpaulsen7777]

If they made videos one hour for each element, I would also watch all of them. Since I was a child I always wanted to know everything about elements and their chemistry. Totally fascinating

[@foraminiferan]

Thank you for these discussions. It's a real opportunity to get some chemistry lessons and experiments when taking courses isn't an option.

[@Adrenalinism]

These videos are so concise and explain everything so well that it blows my mind every time i watch one.

[@trulyinfamous]

Oh Carbon, we love you

[@jhyland87]

6:25 Does that imply that no material that's clear (due to the electrons being tightly bound) can ever be a decent conductor of electricity?

[@1Axxonn1]

basically yes, considering electricity is the transfer of electrons, if something has strong bonds it is less likely if if not unwilling to give up electrons ..

[@kanetw_]

Indium tin oxide (ITO) is a clear conductor.

[@abhayshankar8762]

The electrons may deal with non-visible light. That would cause a clear conductor.

[@jhyland87]

@@abhayshankar8762 Thats kinda what I was thinking, actually. Thanks

[@davidking1429]

No. It is just a rough explanation of why diamonds are transparent (because there are no electrons that can be excited by visible radiation). However there are plenty of clear/ colourless/ transparent substances with electrons in double bonds and other structures that might absorb light but they absorb in the UV eg perspex.

Interesting video on Carbon.. What a coincidence I happened to see this today! Only yesterday I was teaching a local school children on Carbon different forms as per their curriculum. Nothing will make the topic clearer than seeing this video!1 Today ia hope to show this to them. Great work by Martyn to young generations , possible future Noble Laureattes.

[@HarryisI]

Love the dedication in revisiting all the elements. Plus, given the acclaim you've recieved for the series, sure you can get access to more resources.

[@winter4505]

do you know where is carbon found like in which country

[@MrKapeji]

@@winter4505 Depends on the form (allotrope) Many countries have Coal, Anthracite is probably the purest form of carbon that is a coal type. Africa and some other countries have Diamond, it occurs in ancient volcanic pipes in a rock type called kimberlite. Graphite occurs in metamorphic rocks, thus it too will be associated with igneous rocks to some extent as it is the presence of such along with the heat and pressure that causes the alteration of carbon into graphite, not sure exactly how but google will pull that one up.

[@Siguaraya7]

Holly molly love the videos, beautifully explained.... that dude explaining now has a fan... Thanks.

[@bimmjim]

He didn't mention the use of Carbon to make steel. If you add 0.4% carbon to pure iron, you get a much harder, stronger metal which we call steel. Actually, there are hundreds of different alloys of steel that have other elements added. Maybe he mentions this in his video about Iron.

@Noovil25 you see the color that it didn't absorb. The color it reflects. The best example ist if you look at dichromatic mirrors (or short "dichro") widely used in laser applications. They only reflect one certain color, so they look like the color they reflect. The light they let through, is "the rest" which was not reflected.

Carbon has a huge amount of information and uses. He hasn't talked about its hybridized sp orbitals, 2s2 2p2 electrons have 4 electrons in hybridized sp orbitals. Are these talks about inorganic and not about organic chemistry? But buckyballs were covered in organic chemistry textbooks, too.

Wow... thank you for this video! You've answered many of my questions with it :)

[@xxkazthecatxx1776]

Boyle is one of my favorites. You can change what temp things freeze at or turn into gas or even plasma just by changing the pressure of the air. I think one of the gases close to neon does something cool if you give it less then normal air pressure, it turns into plasma if you electrify it. Sure water crystalizes at 32F so you think of coldness when you think of freezing but other things can freeze and crystalize at room temperature or even higher

[@Quintinohthree]

Capacity might not be the right word, but the unprecedented capability of any organism to produce fine chemicals is indeed amazing. Even more so given that organisms have only a limited supply of catalysts and reagents, and yet they can always make them. Of course when one considers the 4.3 or so thousand million years of evolution that have lead to this, it becomes a little less impressive, but nevertheless still immensely amazing.

[@rob876]

I've never thought before why diamond is transparent. Now I understand it clearly. Once we are able to manufacture sheets of it, how effective would a window made from diamond be?

[@Sep3lio]

@pawningcity C60/70 are discrete molecules. The solvent can move around between the individual molecules and interact with them, which allows them to dissolve. In something like graphite/diamond you have big huge sheets/structures of carbon, these wont dissolve simply because the structures are so large the solvent cant get in between to break anything up.

Brilliant piece !

[@cplclegg_]

@giltine002 You have a point there... i hadn't even thought about that. About the mesomeric structures you are partly right,but you should look at it more like delocalized bonds. They can be delocalized in a way that forms a C=C bond for a short amount of time, but that is rather improbable. They way our teacher wanted us to look at it was like 1 1/2 bond between carbon atoms. But since you made your point, i'm unsure if my theory is right because the rings are not really defined.

[@DS-et1vx]

The’re what does the element number for example hydrogen is the first element in the periodic table and it have the number 1.

[@BobSmith-s7j]

The main numbers you see, counting up sequentially from 1, show the number of protons in the nucleus of each element. There are often all sorts of other numbers like the average atomic mass but you'd need to tell us more about what you're thinking of.
