you are the GOAT

[@vandafernandes2123]

Thank you for such an amazing video.

[@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor]

Glad you liked it 😊

[@ChrislynneGuron]

Thank you for the tip. I will keep this in mind for my ochem 2 exam tomorrow!

[@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor]

Best of luck! 🤞

[@akshadnimbarte]

I love physics!

[@beademesa8555]

Unrelated note, can you make a video on how to calculate degrees of unsaturation?:D or do you have one already?

[@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor]

I do have a couple of videos where I talk about it but I don’t have a dedicated video. I bring up HDI in a video on Lewis structures and in spectroscopy videos. Plus, I have it explained on my website as well in the “Bonding” section.
