Naming Acids

[@theEmilyruchotzke]

My chem prof spent the entire class explaining this in a way we all had no idea what was happening... You did it in 7 minutes and super easy... Thank you so much

[@madie6254]

You are single-handedly helping me pass my final. Thank you.

[@anahifuentes6403]

That moment when youtube videos teach you more than your teacher.

[@Kiseki0328]

I needed this soooo much! Im doing first year chem and needed to revisit this stuff in a brief and concise manner for midterms coming up but didn't know where to look and this was beyond perfect! God bless you! you make many people happy!!!!!!

[@clippercarego]

Absolutely great. I learnt more about this in 7 minutes, than sitting in a 50 min. class! Thanks.

[@isaacnaim2474]

You are a far better teacher than my chemistry teacher.

[@CherubMire]

First person to clearly explain this to me. Man I wish I was your student. I guess I can be if i look through your videos. Thanks for making this so easy to grasp. My other professor is just too disorganized.

[@carma08]

Why is that KZbinrs teach better than college professors. This was extremely helpful. Thank you so much! :)

[@jazzysingh6735]

Im learning this in grade 10 how you learning this in college ? 😂😂

[@carma08]

I didn't learn this in 10th grade, and its an intro to chemistry class I'm taking in college.

[@carma08]

Yes, you need to learn chemistry in high school, but when I took chemistry in high school we were not taught these things. I graduated high school in 2001, so what is being taught now in high school may be different, than what you are learning. My professor makes the class more difficult than it has to be. Its an "intro" before the "intro" course. The only prerequisites that are needed in order to take the class that I am in now are college English and math courses, which I've already achieved. I hope I answered the majority of your questions. :)

[@shelbymcgraw2216]

love these videos! really saved me while trying to study for tests and quizzes!

[@agent475816]

I got a trick my chemistry teacher taught us. What we ate was ic, but it was ite with ous.

[@Lexcepcion]

haha clever!

[@CruzanVIHD]

lol cool thanx for sharing, got a test coming up

[@agent475816]

CruzanVIHD no prob

[@Pravduh]

+agent475816 Thanks for sharing!

[@DEXlTE]

+agent475816 haha thanks :D

[@henrycalhoun1119]

thanks, your videos are super clear and I love how you include sample problems!!!

[@KSJ071993]

Pretty simple and clear explanation! I actually thought about combining the words to help remember the relationship before you mentioned that. (Thumps Up)

[@kgstarry]

THANK YOU SO MUCH saved my life for our next chem test

[@hyacinthhairedcutie]

Thank you so much! I thought I might need to drop Chem because my teacher is so unclear, but this made it much clearer! :)

[@billyjoe2807]

Wow, thank you so much, my chemistry teacher does not make it as simple as you do :) love the vids, and i shared your info with everyone in chemistry :) i hope they get as much out of these vids as i do.

[@mollysmith3493]

Thank you! Chemistry class is really hard for me, but you teach it well.

[@George70220]

My left ear enjoyed this video.

[@庄孟谚]

So do I😂😂

[@underwood9584]

your left ear should've been greatful

[@vladimirstanley9211]

lol I thought that was just my headphones hahahah

[@Malikaafghan]

Wow I just got it.... You are a genius and really know how to teach... Thanks so much :-)

[@jordanserieux9511]

This really helped, our chem teacher is a puhtz.

[@sludgies8953]

Ate-ic-ite-ous great tip man!

[@pa800korg92]

THE BEST CHEMISTRY TEACHER RIGHT THERE! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@justnikole6476]

Thank you!!! This helped me study! It's way easier to understand.

[@carlywaldron3008]

you're a life saver. so much easier to understand than how my professor taught it. thank you so much!

[@libertypfeffer8637]

thank you!!! you're so good at explaining

[@IsabellaMas]

thank you for the amazing video! made is so easy :)

[@ShadowGhost93]

dude you are great at teaching this.

[@danielricardo8544]

Ben you're my hero!

[@HieuNguyen-dx5fr]

awesome I have learned a lot from this video . Thanks

[@lillieparker1607]

This helped a bunch! Thank you

[@L33ms]

Watching this as I walk to my chemistry exam thanks!

[@sydstee13]

Thanks dude! This helped a lot! :)

[@patrickpoate]

Thanks helps me for my test!

[@2012farfar]

Thank you so much, that helped a lot :)

[@mikewashere7846]

FINALLY I UNDERSTAND THANK YOU

[@BensChemVideos]

You're very welcome! Many thanks for watching and commenting 😀

[@GlitterPetite]

Definitely helpful. Teacher did not teach us this

[@zumar24]

HBr is not hydrogen bromide? HBr(aq) is acid? sorry just wanna learn.

[@juan3]

So Clear! thanks!

[@yeahhhh2231]

That was really helpful thanks a lot !

[@brightbIade]

HCl read as "Hydrochloric acid", but why is H2SO4-2 read as "Sulfuric acid". I thought you read that as "hydrosulfuric acid" (?) bc its got Hydro with it. Could you explain that please???

[@quigmaster]

You only add the hydro- prefix when dealing with binary acids. H2SO4 is not binary so you do not use the hydro- prefix

[@agent475816]

You only put hydro on binary acids,

[@Kaka_1253]

This is the second time, I end up in your channel without noticing, do you remember me?

[@Haseebaali]

You teach better then my teacher ............ Thankssssssss a lot :)

[@plumslices]

thank u!!!!

[@00000syria00000]

thanks i am Arabian and i studied these information in Arabic language and know iam studying in English it helped me a lot thanks !

[@luvergirljames123]

Shouldn't the -ate go with the -ous ending and should the -ite go with the -ic ending?

[@aisaenic8121]

Siena Davis nope D: a good way to remember tho, is how you ATE cafeteria food, and it was ICky, so ite would go with ous

[@mollysmith3493]

Thank you! great tip

[@lionblazze879]

thank you so much, all your videos are super helpful!

[@OxyWorgon]

why is there a naming system for acids? why is it not just called dihydrogen persulfate? dihydrogen sulfate? dihydrogen sulfite? dihydrogen hyposulfate? (each is for one less oxygen) also: if you removed 1 hydrogen from a water molecule (HO), would you get a binary acid...in theory?

[@iafigueroa91]

The numbers on hydrogen in oxyacids are the charges that were swapped when the hydrogen and the polyatomic ion bonded together.

[@DarlsC]

I like all of your videos, you know. Maybe you can be a teacher? Better than one, probably.

[@michaelra77]

thank you so much

[@edwinorelus1849]

Question: if H2O starts with hydrogen, why is it not an acid? What makes it a regular molecular compound?

[@starch4410]

+Edwin Orelus Its technically both, it is considered a base and an acid because it has a ph that doesnt lean either to a base or acid.

[@KWAirsoft]

A cool mnemonic I learned was, "Ate something Icky". Meaning ate for ic and then ite and ous would be left over.

[@heath3339]

What about the per prefix?

[@princessae2004]

I have 10 pages on how to name ionic, covalent, and acids and none of it makes sense. You taught me more in 30 min than what I learned in about three lecture days. My Final is on tues so I'm watching all your videos. Thanks!

[@ravenswood118]

My test review says H2CO3 is carbonic acid which doesn't make sense to me with the ic, ate, etc rules :(

[@KungaMatata]

I wish you were my teacher

[@julianasebben7060]

you are seriously so helpful, thank you thank you thank you!

[@aborrmm]

Very helpful. Thanks a lot ...

[@pink4life334]

thankssss !

you are just amazing thank you very very much

[@Mjzzz11]

too good man

[@cyndicrumley8064]

You're my hero.

[@cyndicrumley8064]

precisioninstruments not much, just hanging out above my eyes per usual. Thanks for asking :)

[@cyndicrumley8064]

precisioninstruments They've taken a top secret mission from NASA. Sorry, but I'm not at liberty to divulge any further detail.

[@LovelySweetPea100]

Whoa. That was so simple. Super simple. Why did this take a week in class?

[@BESTOFTHEABOVE]

i ATE now i feel IC-y now Iv'e got that ITE - OUS

[@rigelwachtmann9710]

Thank you very much.

[@wonder052]

If you had HCl2 (as an example, I know that's not right) would it be named hydrodichloric acid? Or do you never use prefixes with acids?

[@sam56094]

amazing

[@jonathanw4662]

Thank you very cool

[@ravindugunasinghe4542]

i love u man

[@NycEarnestChInk]

someone please answer finals on monday , for naming oxy acids aka such as H2SO4 doesnt it have to be (aq) to be naming ate to ric and ite to ous

[@thecarl26554]

HBr is hydrogen bromide but the common name is hydrobromic acid

[@mayakolen6496]

our chem teacher came up w a little thingy to help us rememeber: hIDE a H-ICky ATE an ICky bITE a deliciOUS

[@nobazter]

@Zulema Cardenas Hbr hydrogen monobromide and HBr hydrobromic acid.

[@rawbdiggy001]

when naming oxyacids, why do you ignore the Hydrogen? For instance, H2CO3

[@iafigueroa91]

You only use the polyatomic ion to name the acid. Only in binary acids do you use hydro in naming acids like HCl = Hydrochloric acid.

[@daniix3333]

Thanks for the video. Still don't understand why you ignored hydrogen when naming oxyanions

[@DJPetomatick]

+Petomatick Which I guess means that hydrogen isn't really part of the acid anymore.

[@1721Campos]

Simple, they do it because they want to.

[@nobazter]

@nobazter with aq its the acid

[@aawiz27]

I ATE a popsICle Cat bITEs mOUSe

[@hallowdepths]

The chemist version of PatrickJMT ...

[@ravenswood118]

The interwebs say HBr is Hydrogen Bromide...

[@AtalldarkMinh]

HBr is Hydrogen Bromide. BUT, When it is HBr (aq) then it becomes Hydrobromic acid. He just didn't put the "(aq)" to show its an aqueous solution

[@nicholasfrapporti3013]

since when do people still say interweb?

[@MrThanxIx]

we are naming acids, so they always had -ic -ous I guess.

[@TheBballboi13]

Ever thought about changing your job..? and being my teacher instead? haha

[@m35926]

I hope my prof catches ateiciteous

[@myfreetime123]

adickitous

[@ShriKaav]

at first i read it ateiteicous, close enough lol

[@ki113rxgunz9]

You ATE the IC you get the ITE OUS

[@high5en]

Why am I doing all of my learning at home? Why do I even go to class if I walk out confused and end up learning it all on KZbin?

[@theratedr1lovesbacon]

Turn on the captions for Ate ic ite ous

[@jesenia.l]

My teacher thought us as I ATE too much and now I'm sICk and Save a bITE for OUS

[@arijtomlinson6739]

If you can't remember the endings you could also use sprITE is deliciOUS. Another one would be I ATE something ICky

[@shockashawn]

the "m" is silent in mnemonic. ni-ˈmä-nik. students teaching teachers :)
