If there's a war, soldiers are recruited from the military base, if there should be a bond, electrons are extracted from the Lewis base. that's how I remember. Thank you.

Wow, you're right, they're comically wrong. My points still stand though: Lewis Acid = electron acceptor Lewis base = electron donor

Lol Nate your voice and the way you talk is great

what a gracious receiver lol..awesome explanation

Why can't all teachers teach in sarcasm...

Awesome explanation. Can you please make another on how to compare the strengths of Lewis acids or bases ?

Ha I love how frustrated you get when you accidentally say "proton." It's adorable :3

How I wish teachers are like you!! Great Job!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

the way you talk about lewis' acids and bases is comforting

Very late (studying for praxis so I can teach chemistry myself) but duuude, I wish it was more common to explain Lewis acids and Lewis bases like this! Showing the pair of electrons "moving" and showing the exact bonding the results is so much more helpful than the very vague ways that most textbooks and other teachers explain this!

Thank you for clearing the concept so nicely

"How generous of it..." XD hahaha. Slayed.

Please Correct: SO3 has double bonds between the sulfur and all 3 oxygens. good video

you just made my life a whole lot easier :D other vids couldnt teach me this simple thing! Thanks!

thank you for this video!! your sarcasm was much appreciated :D

Thank you so much for your videos and pls upload more videos and they make a lot of sense.

Love your teaching style, the hand gestures help me for whatever reason lol.. thank you for the vid!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! This made so much sense!

Thanks NATE for this.

gen chem 2 student. Must say this helped out a bit. thanks man

Who watched it for iit jee😂😂

Wonderful explanation!

your explanation is great , your students must be luckyy

Awesome bro, thanks for such a great explanation....

Bro you just saved my life!

Seriously don't know what to say but simply your the best chemistry teacher on youtube!

i wanna have a teacher like you. LOL. i will surely learn with that teaching style

Excellent. I watch this in Turkey. Thx

You're a life saver!

Thank you, I am looking forward to my exam tomorrow, I got this.

You’re super funny! Thanks for the best explanation!

Hi, I was a bit confused. When donating the electrons, the compound will accept the electron pair and become the acid. But why does it attach bond back to the base? And could you explain the positive and negative charges when the base has donated its electron?

thanks alot.now i am able to point out lewis acid and base.simply we have to notice which specie has a lone pair so that would be base.thanks once again!

THANKKK YOUUU. You taught me in 4mins what my teacher tried to teach me for 3 days now. Lmao

This video is saving me in gen chem 2

Amazing teacher

Thanks this helped me a lot

Thank you so much !!! i was stuck in this !

That's an interesting way of speaking Nate

thanks for clear lesson

Awesome video sir

very helpful it sum up my info about it more

Oh i love this guy....Thank you

Haha great explanation and the proton part was awesome

I love the enthusiasm!! also i heard you say proton but I knew what you meant lol

u r a great teachers I love the way u said not proton it's electron it was very funny

thanks for explaining this + making me laugh at the same time

Thank you for your video

You’re so funny, I love it 😂😂😂and thanks a lot

after watching ur vdo I subscribed ur channel✌✌✌ the way u teach is awesome I like it😁😁😁

Now I finally understand. You saved me huhu

on H2SO4 part, how did that one of hydrogen from water moved away from water molecule and attached to oxygen from SO4?

VERY VERY helpful! thanks you!

It's easy,but it will help a lot of people

Thanx sir very resourceful for me

Great video, i was searching a video like this but in spanish, but I am afraid there is none

Thank you, boss man Canadian!

this video is great

thank you so much

Thanks a lot very appreciated

THANK YOU!

You're hilarious, I'm subscribing.

Just a heads up: your SO3 compound is drawn wrong; it's implying that SO3 has a 3- ionic charge. To fix it, just double all the bonds.

THANK YOU.

thanks mate nice vid

great vid and funny! thank you

Each SO bond in SO3 is a double bond

Bless you sir

Thanks for you so much your great 😊👍

Great explanation . You sound like Kevin Spacey .

wait, how do you have 6 valence e on each oxygen in so3 and then only 4 on h2o? i thought since o has 6 valence electrons, being a single bond to so3, this would give each of the oxygens 5 valence in each

YOUR THE BEST

Until the end of this video I was so confused about which ones were electrons or proton pairs xD

thanks so much ❤❤

Thank prof !!!!

You make learning fun xD

Shouldn’t be a lone pairs on thé S at thé start ?

What about a lewis acid gives only one electron? just curious, and thank you for clarifying this and cracking me up. :)

Thank you!!!

Can these explain nuetralization acidic and basic oxides

thank-you sir :D !!!!

You shows the wrong structure formula for SO3 (and H2SO4, too): sulfur has 6 bonds while each oxygen has 2 and only 2 non-shared (lone) pairs of electrons.

aweeesome dude tyvm

thanks so much!!!

thanks for changing my fate

Lewis base are strong field ligands?

In case of HCl it is not Lewis acid . Am awrite sir ?

I really don't know how to thank you... I wish happy life 😂❤

He's saying protons by accident because he's thinking about Bronsted Lowrey. How do I know? Cuz I learned about that from him. Good teacher.

Thank you it is help fore

ok so you have the water attaching to sulfur but you don't explian how the proton or hydrogen moves from the water molecule to the other oxygen. i have to draw a corect stucture for this reaction and i'm not sure wither to just use the addition of water by the oxygen lone pair or to put the stuctral diagram for H2SO4, because it does initial form the adduct. anyone have an ideas

Thanks for the help, I finally clicked.

This was love in some many ways because I was lost lol

Haha... Thank you very much. Basically, to learn this simple concept you have to give up the automatic association of acids with protons..... It's just a concept. Thanks!

U r the best

isnt there a definition for acids that it donates h+ ions and base as oh- acceptor.so isnt lewis acid base counterintuitive then?

Sir how come u r representing oxygen atom with 6 dots and a bond? O atom requires only 6 electrons to achieve the octect rule...can you please help me i am totally confused

how would you know which should give away its electrons? and which should accept? cant it be any of the two?

Kinda weird how electron pairs are being donated, in spite of the fact that the molecule is already a complete octet.

THANK YOUU!!!
