Introduction to Chemical Reactions

Introduction tutorial video to chemical reactions explains chemistry to school & science students by showing how the bonds of H2 and O2 molecules breaking apart and rearranging to form H2O molecules, and the tell-tale signs of a chemical reaction, including energy changes.

About Atomic School:
Atomic School supports the teaching of Atomic Theory to primary school & science students .
We provide lesson plans, hands-on classroom resources, demonstration equipment, quizzes and a Teacher's Manual to primary school teachers. Animated videos that clearly explain the scientific ideas supports learning by both teachers and students. As a teacher, you don't have to look anywhere else to implement this program.

Our work has been verified by science education researchers at the University of Southern Queensland, Dr Jenny Donovan and Dr Carole Haeusler, who confirm that primary students are capable of learning much more complex scientific concepts than previously thought, and crucially, that they love it. Students run to class!

The program has been trialed in Australian schools as well as schools in the Philippines, Iran and India. It is conducted as holiday workshops at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, the Queensland Museum as well as the World Science Festival.
It has attracted wide media interest, including TV, radio and print, and the research data has been presented at prestigious American Education Research Association and Australian Science Education Research Association conferences.

Atomic Theory underlies all the other sciences- genetics, electronics, nanotechnology, engineering and astronomy- so an early understanding will set them up for a more successful learning sequence for all their science subjects, and support their mastery of mathematics as well. We also have extension programs that cover Biology, Physics and Astronomy to an equal depth.

The founder of Atomic School, Ian Stuart, taught Chemistry and Physics for 25 years at senior levels before he realized that his 8-year old son, Tom, could understand Atomic Theory at a much deeper level than he expected. After visiting Tom's class at school, he discovered that his peers could also grasp the abstract scientific concepts, as well as apply it usefully to the real world.

Ian then developed a program to teach the advanced concepts of high school Chemistry, Physics and Biology to students 10 years younger than they normally would. He found that this engaged their interest in modern science early, and sustained it through to high school and beyond. It also sets them up for future success in their academic and career paths.

Ian has a Bachelor's Degree in Chemistry from the University of Queensland and a Master's degree in Electrochemistry from the University of Melbourne.

Who else needs to use this video for online classes because of COVID 19?

[DerGrosTitan]

I was assigned this for school, and although I already understand chemical reactions: this was a very well-made video! Thanks!

[sammirison]

As a teacher, I like your videos as they are made delicately to deal with some concepts that are hard to introduce to the elementary learners. The level of explanations are kept to a manageable level to the learner to cope and learn the basics and still adequate to give them a consistent satisfactory answer to the numerous questions they may have at that stage. well done, and good luck.

Who put such a banger in for background music?

[poonammishra]

Its really creative, you know, the way you show chemical to understand.
Bravo!

[oziomachioke]

your the best chemistry teacher I've seen so far, you break every into pieces. Bravo!

[martapalacios]

i have an exam and this was very helpfull. Thankss

[itsmaryam]

THIS IS THE BEST VIDEO YET! This has help me massively in school. Thank u so much!

[Natesskates]

bro you started to sound like a monologuing villain made it very fun to watch

[kaleemhussain]

This video has right to have more than million views

[eugenekoshanof]

that was pretty cool and enjoyable . Wish my school as this way

[richardification]

Yet another piece of art form Ian Stuart channel! It has been pleasure to watch. Simplicity and clarity prevail...not to mention eye-friendly graphics.

A good introductory video to chemical reactions. A number of key terms are introduced appropriately. "Sufficient energy is needed for a reaction to occur" could have been included in the script where heat is applied. Nice video. I like it.

[senthilkumar]

Sir your explanation is very clear to understand. I thought chemistry is very confusing to learn but you proved that it is very easy and clear !!!!

[yonismathchannel]

I am a big fan of your channel Thanks ❤️

[diazluis]

hello. love the videos and explainations. thank you...i was wondering why the elements didn't rejoin with each other after the heat tore them apart. why did they form a new product ? wouldnt the atoms want to rejoin with their own kind?.thank you and sorry if i missed the answer in the video.

[ashaasha]

This video made me very helpful 😊 thank you for this video

[sonarupaboutique]

Such a helpful YouTube channel . It really is amazing and useful .😍😍😍😍👌👌👌

[Skully_crossbones]

@AtomicSchool, what is the music you used in the intro?

[CrashChemistryAcademy]

This is excellent. Perfect for my intro chem class. Thanks so much for making it.
