This video runs through the Bonding topic from Unit 1 of the AS Spec.

It doesn't contain any intermolecular forces or shapes of molecules, they can be found here:

Got the exam tomorrow and just sat here watching absolutely every video I can before bed, theses videos are life savers !

In many past paper questions, when you have to draw an example of metallic bonding, the markscheme says the amount of delocalised electrons you draw has to correspond to the amount of ions you draw and the charges on the ions to get the full marks, so for example, if you draw 6 Mg 2+ ions in a metallic structure, you need to draw 12 e-'s in the "Sea" of electrons to get full marks, I've lost marks in mocks because of this before

Lifesaver, even 5 years later! I liked your "speedrun" through the exam haha

so grateful for these videos, im finally starting to get A's in my chem tests 2 months into the course. thank you so much

[daviennesandra]

My first time watching your video and have to say it was super helpful. You don't know how many grades you saved by going through not just the concepts but the practice qns as well. Thank you so much for these!!

[paigebrown]

Thank you so much honestly you're saving my chemistry A-level. You've inspired me so much to even start my own channel on biology A-level for AQA.

[jellyandme]

This video came up on my feed and I thought for a moment you'd posted a new video.
Hope you're having a good life man!

[nadeem]

thanks it was really helpful. you should go through exam questions at the end of the video for all topics. i really found them helpful

[daliadeak]

Your videos are great! You explain things so eloquently, and you make things easy to understand. Despite the fact that I'm following Edexcel's specification, you've covered almost everything I needed to know in the videos I've seen so far. And your advice is just fantastic- 'don't die'. :') Thanks for making these super helpful videos!

[kishanmu]

This was the one topic I needed help on so thank you! Also the fact you put example questions at the end was very helpful and would be good if you did that for all your videos from now on :)

[assemubigaliyeva]

GOSH. You’re a lifesaver!!! Thank u so much, it’s 2 months until my chemistry mock exam and somehow I was actually not getting bondings at all, but after watching this vid, it all makes sense! Honestly, you made videos for every bloody hard topic from As &A2. I have no words, may god bless you!!!😹😭🙌

[anasmohamed]

This dude is so funny, I was laughing the whole way through I forgot I was even studying 😂😭
