Basic Atomic Structure: A Look Inside the Atom

[@tdewitt451]

Clearly, you're 100% right about the science. But I also spend a lot of time working with people who are learning Chemistry for the first time, and from my experience as a teacher, I know it's very unlikely that a 13 year-old will have any idea what you mean when you describe an electron as a "stationary wave with its maximum around the nucleus." I know I'm simplifying here and I know you're technically right, but a perfect explanation isn't worth anything if students can't understand any of it.

Nobody is born knowing everything. Everything is all learned. It's not about fast or slow (synonyms of smart and dumb). It's about putting it in a way that the student can understand.

THANK YOU SO MUCH !! I have my first big test on Tuesday and thanks to you I think I am ready..but I will be watching your videos until Tuesday at 5:00 :-)

[@tdewitt451]

yeah, that's sort of true, but atoms don't vary in size *that* much. like a hydrogen atom has a radius of 53 pm (picometers), and a uranium atom has a radius of 81 pm. so maybe it would be 1 million vs. 1.2 million or 1.5 million, but it's not like it's gonna be 1 million vs. 10 million or 100 million.

you are awesome. even if i werent studying chem in college i would still watch you. you rock. your parents must be so proud of you i bet.

[@brunoborma]

I just realized it sounds redundant to assume eletrons don't just fly away from the atom because they are negativelly charged in relation to the positivelly charged nucleus. Instead, I think what we call negative charge is derived from the fact that these tiny little probabilistic stuff are stuck to their inner core, that we call positive. In the end, we just don't understand why it is like that. We just know how this works, once being like this. Crazy hum ! It leads me to think about Heiddeger "dasein" concept of the true self of things, which we'll never be able to experience. By the way, I love your videos, they are so funny and well explained. I like the hand done animations !!
