How To Determine The 4 Quantum Numbers From an Element or a Valence Electron

This video shows you how to identify or determine the 4 quantum numbers (n, l, ml, and ms) from an element or valence electron. This video provides 3 example practice problems showing you how to write the quantum numbers using the electron configuration.

This 4minute video taught me quicker than my 3 hour chemistry class. Thank you.

[music_freak]

Skipping to 8 years later, and this guy has saved millions of students and continues to do so, Truly a hero

[devvaratbali]

straight to the point
damn
what's wrong with everyone else

[jorgepadua]

OH MY GOD I GOT IT IN LESS THAN 5 MINUTES.


You teach better than my professor who has PhD.

[itsdavidjosh]

Props to this man for teaching us for over 6 years

🙇🏻‍♂️👑

[Nanonium]

Holy crap, you taught it way better than my chemistry teacher, he made it sound like it was the world's hardest problem

[shiinomakise]

So this is where it begin. What a legend.

[LeNguyen-imdm]

I missed my class, so I did not understand any thing about orbitals. I read the textbook for many times, but I still don't understand. I decided to watch youtube to make me understand. To be honest, I watched almost 10 videos with different teachers, but I still did not understand. Finally, I found your video. You saved me. Thank you.

[chherryflavored]

FOR HOURS I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW THEY CHOSE BETWEEN -2, -1, 0, 1, 2 AND NOW I REALIZE WHY. THANK YOU!!!! I've watched so many youtube videos today too!!

[miacelentano]

Mans you’re really out here saving my chem grade bless your soul

[brothinkhemaguire]

Anyone else shocked that this channel began only in 2015? I legit thought it had existed since 2009-10

[atomtoanime]

This guy is going to make chemistry simple for the upcoming generation.

[anvayaiyer]

Fun fact: This is organic chemistry tutor's first video.

[levi_snowfractal]

This video saved my homework, man. I spent hours doing research, and this is the one place I found that explained the process simply and easily enough for me to understand. Great job, much appreciated.

[Galincik]

Thank you so much for this! I completely failed this part of the exam i took this week and am now using this to hopefully ace it on the finals! You made it very easy and clear to understand! God bless you!

[seanie]

He doesn't know that this is how one of the legend educators of youtube was gonna be born

[BucketHead]

The origins of the greatest tutor known to man

[nikolasmussmann]

Wow this was incredibly useful!
Quantum numbers never made much sense to me in my year of chemistry.
Great presentation and examples in such a short time!
Bravo!

[CRCND]

as a sophomore, our adviser in our online class literally just gave us this topic without any context, and were literally having a test about it the day after.

Most productive 4 minutes of my entire life.
