What is a Coordinate Covalent Bond?

This chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into coordinate covalent bond. Line any covalent bond, electrons are shared. However, in a coordinate covalent bond, one atom donates both electrons that contribute to the formation of the bond. A lewis acid lewis base reaction can form a coordinate covalent bond as well as metal ligand interactions.

I'm watching this to freshen up some material for the MCAT. I'm an older student who just finished up a postbac to apply to medical school. Two years ago I wasn't even sure if I would be able to make it to this point, as I had significant doubts about my academic abilities. Your videos have helped me in every single class I've taken by explaining clearly the confusing topics, providing examples, and by providing the ability to slow down and re-watch until things make sense. Your ability to teach is world class, and I can honestly say I would not have made it this far without the resources you've provided. Thank you!

thank you. I had the hardest time understand what the coordinate covalent bond was until I watched your video. This helped a lot <3

Sometimes I get frustrated reading those textbooks not understanding a thing KNOWING it should be simple to understand, when that happens I usually come to this channel for a much needed simple explanation, thanks man 👍

[Abhi-nufw]

am i the only one who is slowly falling in love with this guys voice

[suzannejacob]

Ive been watching your chem tutorials since college and you have always helped me! Thanks so much for helping us all out :)

[karinajackson]

Thank you so much! Your videos have helped me through my MCAT Study sessions.

[shalomadebanjo]

I was watching on Google preview but I had to go to YouTube to drop a sub bc damn. You're good at what you do. Please never stop putting out more videos ❤

[dianeairala]

Thank you! Many of your videos have helped me a lot!!
Besides, and not that important (but worth mentioning), your voice is extremely pleasant.

[carldaoud]

Thank You, this helped me understand it. I was confused at first.

[Orthilia]

Thank you! It seemed so complex when looking at wiki ect., and you made it so simple :D

[introvertedsigma]

So much informative video. Very helpful for me cause i am preparing for jee advanced. Thank u very much 🥰

[sameereldosoky]

You are a really genuis i love to watch your videos

[amjadsabri]

I'm here because tomorrow exammmm 😭😭😭

[soham]

Thanks bro... youve just helped me in chemistry so much...!

Just saying most of my chemistry knowledge was studied from sources that were explained you and Khan Academy, also why are you only at 2.65M subscribers, I was expecting like 265M subscribers or something approximating that.

Question: is AgNH3+ not considered a complex ion? Does it need to have more than 1 ligand (i.e. Ag(NH3)2+) to be a complex ion?

[Nikosmentis]

Yes but won’t the nitrogen have a plus charge when forming that bond?

[phantomsblood]

its basically one sided love! thankssss

Is there a special notation used when drawing either lewis dot diagrams, or any other method, to indicate that a bond is actually a coordinate covalent bond (and not just a typical covalent bond)?

[min-dhgi]

dude ur explaination is fucking simple and very good 😭😭😭
