Chem163 Lewis Acids and Bases (15.12)

Brief introduction to a different definition of acids and bases looking at the electrons instead of the proton.

[@kanthdhanush8059]

It's been 8 years and still the content is Good (competes with the present KZbiners content)💪💪

[@rachelannapolaro8969]

Really appreciate this video, it was so clear. I was confused watching some other explanation as nobody else seemed to address the difference from the Bronsted Lowry definition to the Lewis one. I had spent so much effort learning it in the format that a base was an acceptor that when it suddenly switched to the acid being the acceptor. I started panicking that I learnt everything backwards but now with your video realize it's a different perspective on the electrons!

[@christianappiahjunior6156]

Yh it's so clear

[@enhypen9069]

Short and precise. Really helpful

[@rahimullahmandokhail155]

Absolutly fantastic because i learnt about lewis and brownsted-lowery theory easily

[@kanthdhanush8059]

Can't belief this was posted 8 years before 😳😳😳 the content was💪💪💪👌👌👌

[@maximussarcasticus1312]

Nicely done. Thank you. Very clear handwriting and you explained the science well.

[@mohaa5248]

This is the best video on this subject. thank you!!

[@angiem2192]

Thank you this is the best video on this entire site no one has explained the Lewis structures and how they relate to Lewis acids I'm in organic chem and I had to basically refresh myself on why these lone pairs were there it wasn't making sense until I watched your video

[@amnaalraihy4984]

Thanks for your explanation 🤍

[@gyanexpresspro4010]

😍😍 beautiful way of teaching.

[@psychepark291]

Thank you now I finally understand it!

Thank you so much

[@JiaMah-qe2xi]

I watched like several videos but didn't understand, then I found yours and I understood... Sorry my English is bad

[@arjunt1453]

Nah! It's good dude *English*

[@ejiroprecious642]

Still relevant after 10 years 🤠

[@yaseen5372]

Awesome. From S.korea💞💞

Thank u❤️

Thanks

Could you explain how Na+ is lewis acid and Cu(OH)2 is lewis base with the help of picture? :)

[@ahmedjaved8860]

See Na+ means it has become a cation so it has no extra lone pair cz it has donated its electron. So easily we can identify it is an acid and ofcourse other one will be a base:D

[@somethingnew3238]

Thanks mam from India 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Lka kase

[@mamthaayyavar7476]

y in this example water taken as acid ?? rply sir

[@TheFirstNamelessOne]

Yes, water can be either an acid or a base. It depends with what it reacts. Because, by the lewis definition (there are many definitions), an acid is an electron pair aceptor. That is, in this case, it looses a hydrogren, but in others, it accepts a hydrogren. That being so, if it looses an hydrogren it becomes a hydroxyl ion, conversely, if it accepts a hydrogen, it becomes a hydronium ion.

[@mamthaayyavar7476]

@@TheFirstNamelessOne thq for info

[@shannon3773]

@@TheFirstNamelessOne how do you know the H2O will be the electron pair acceptor? why can’t it donate a lone pair on its O to one of the H’s on NH3?

[@ejiroprecious642]

It's amphoteric

[@Eternally--armlink]

H2O is neutral isn't it???

[@kysm4v]

Not always it's amphoteric meaning it can be an acid or a base depending on the equation , although according to 'arrhenius acids and bases' H2O is neutral

[@anujkushwaha2571]

Definition sudhar le bhai H+ donar nahi hoga ye to brownsted lowry theory me h
