Lewis Dot Structures
Finally, you'll understand all those weird pictures of molecules with the letters and the lines and the dots! Those are lewis dot structures. Let's learn how to draw them. It's easier than you think.

I've loved learning with your videos and I'd want to say that it's been incredible honore to have a teacher like. Hope I'll be thrilled to learn more stuffs like this one in an effective and manifesting way.

Thanks professor dave! I am beyond blessed to live in an age where I can search the internet for better explanations than my weird and confusing textbook.
Hey Dave, really appreciate your videos. You have been a huge help not just for quick reviews but also for understanding difficult concepts in short and concise ways that have helped me in my first year of Uni. Can you make a video about molecules that defy the octet rule, please? Their dot structures and maybe the reasons. In general, it seems that my professors love to throw the difficult "disobedient" circumstances at us when it comes to exam time.

I was looking for the topic * Electronegativity" and came across to your video "The Periodic Table: Atomic Radius, Ionization Energy, and Electronegativity* found it helpful because it covers all the topic that i needed to prepare for my test. once again i click on the link to learn about Lewis dot structures, but again this video covers all the topic that i need to know for the next test! thanks!!!

So, now my whole class knows and her other students will too :) Thank you again.
Professor Dave's channel is underrated -- he's really outstanding. I'm happy being his fan before reaching 1.3 M subscribers
Thank you Professor Dave for making concepts easier.. Kindly try explaining the answers of the comprehension...
Your videos are a big help! I hope my teacher shows videos like this to the class instead of just showing powerpoints. Because its not just me in the class who dont get her lesson lmao. Thank you big time!🙏😊

Perfect chemistry teacher! thank you.

Told me something my professor couldn't explain in 4 months now, in 4 minutes, gonna subscribe it right away now!
This helps a lot, my teacher didn't teach this in class and the year got cut. Thank you.
Thanks for making this seem so simple :)

When my teacher explained this to the class it was a shipwreck but when I watched your video it became a piece of cake. You're Incredible!

Professor Dave Explains also saw another version of SO2, one of the O atoms has a single bond leaving 6 lone electrons. Hence, the sulphur atom has 8 valence electrons.
I like how there people who make informational videos that are still helping people after years later along the line.
It was very helpful, i appreciate your quick simplification. thanks a lot!🙏

That's interesting, but a PhD doesn't make you errorless. It makes more sense to try to dot the atom circularly (in fours) to depict how deficient from an octet its valence shell is.
I understand perfectly, however do you know any good practice sites or have any practice sheets with answers to review over this? I really need to practice so I could pass.
Best explained! Thank you for your help...
thank you very much.

I've been trying to learn the method my chem teacher taught me for a few weeks but it's way too complicated and I can never remember all the steps. This just taught me in 4 minutes and I'm so glad I found it because I have an exam tomorrow!
finally found my very first favorite youtube channel
Yessss! You actually make sense !
I’m going to give you a high rating on rate my professor, thanks Professor Dave
Amazing explanation, thanks professor Dave!
Awesome nicely explained . Your video is very useful for year 10 students
Hey Dave, I had trouble with the comprehension question for SO_2. I found another guy's video specifically about that (xDG8EQ2Fq8w) and he said it doesn't have double bonds but rather "hybrid resonance bonds" - whatever that means. Is that correct or is it nonsense? Does that mean the answer you gave is an oversimplification? Speaking of simplifications, you mentioned that phosphorus and sulphur can both form five bonds. That didn't make sense to me, so I started researching it online and it seems to be a complex topic but possibly related to orbital hybridization - is that right? Personally, I am not sure if you should include such factoids without at least a passing explanation, to avoid just this sort of confusion I experienced. But maybe there is a good reason, and this is just something which I should be expected to know and/or accept without understanding. If so, at least a disclaimer about that could have saved me some trouble. Anyway, I really appreciate your videos in general. They are immensely helpful to me. Thank you.

Elements in n=3 and above have access to d orbitals and can expand their octets. In truth, very few elements obey the octet rule, and even those don't always obey it. It's best to disregard the rule.
