If you're wondering, this is how the most revolutionary course in biology of all time begins.

Come today to learn about covalent and ionic and hydrogen bonds.

What about electron orbitals and the octet rule?

And what does it all have to do with a madman named Gilbert Lewis?

It's all contained within.

Hello, I'm Hank.

I assume you're here because you're interested in biology, and if you are, that makes sense, because Like any good Fitty Sense song,

biology is just about sex and not dying.

Everyone watching this should be interested in sex and not dying, being that you are, I assume, a human being.

I'm gonna be teaching this biology course differently than most courses you've ever taken in your life.

For example, I'm not going to spend the first class talking about how I'm going to spend the rest of the class.

I'm just going to start teaching you, like right about now.

I may say one more thing before I start teaching.

Yes, I am going to.

It's that, um, if I'm going too fast for you, great thing about YouTube is that you can just rewind, watch stuff over and over again if it's confusing,

and hopefully it will become less confusing, and you're even allowed to to fast -forward through the bits that you already know.

Another tip: you can actually even use the number keys on your keyboard to move around in the video.

And I promise, you can do this to me as much as you want, and I'm totally not gonna mind.

A great professor of mine once told me that in order to really understand any topic, you have to understand a little bit of the level of complexity just below that topic.

The level of complexity just below biology is chemistry.

Unless you're a biochemist, in which case you would argue that it's biochemistry.

Either way, we're gonna have to know a little bit of chemistry in

order to get to get to get to the next topic get through biology and so that my friends, is where we're gonna start.

I am a collection of organic molecules called Hank Green.

Organic compounds are a class of compounds that contain carbon.

When I say carbon is small, I mean that it's actually, you know, as an atom, it's a relatively small atom.

It has six protons and six neutrons for a total atomic weight of 12.

Because of that, carbon doesn't take up a lot of space.

And so carbon can form itself into weird rings and sheets and spirals and double and even triple bonds.

It can do all sorts of things that could never be accomplished by more bulky atoms.

It's basically, you know, your atomic equivalent of an Olympic gymnast.

It can only do all of those wonderful, beautiful, elegant things because it's kind of tiny.

I also said that carbon is kind, and that's an interesting sort of thing to say about an atom.

It's not like some other elements that are just desperately trying to do anything they can to fill up their electron orbitals.

No, carbon knows what it's like to be alone, Chlorine or sodium is.

Elements like chlorine, if you breathe them in, they like literally tear up your insides and sodium, sodium is insane.

If you like put it in water, it explodes.

Carbon though, Meh.

It wants more electrons, but it's not gonna like kill to get them.

It makes and breaks bonds like a 13 year old mall rat and it doesn't even hold a grudge.

Carbon is also, as I mentioned before, a bit of a tramp because it needs four extra electrons

and so it'll bond with pretty much whoever happens to be nearby.

And also because it needs four electrons, it'll bond with two or three or even four of those things at the same time.

And carbon you know, willing and interested to bond with lots of different molecules, like hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, nitrogen, or to other molecules of carbon.

It can do this in infinite configurations, allowing it to be the core atom of complicated structures that make living things like ourselves.

Life is entirely based on this element.

Carbon is the foundation of biology.

It's so fundamental that scientists have a pretty difficult time even conceiving of life that isn't based on carbon.

with six protons, six neutrons, and six electrons.

Atoms have electron shells, and they need to have these shells filled in order to be happy, fulfilled atoms.

So carbon has six total electrons, two for the first shell, so it's totally happy, and four of the eight it needs to fill the second shell.

Carbon forms a type of bond that we call covalent.

This is when atoms actually are sharing electrons with each other.

So in the case of methane, which is pretty much the simplest carbon compound ever,

carbon is sharing its four electrons Electrons only have one electron, so they want their first s orbital filled.

Carbon shares its four electrons with those four hydrogens, and those four hydrogens each share one electron with carbon.

So everybody's happy.

In chemistry and biology, this is often represented by what we call Lewis -Dott structures.

Good lord, I'm in a chair.

I'm in a chair and there's a book.

Apparently I have something to tell you that's in this book.

Which is a book called Lewis: Asses and Bases.

by Hank Green.

Gilbert Lewis, the guy who thought up Lewis dot structures, was also the guy behind Lewis acids and bases.

He was nominated for the Nobel Prize.

35 times.

This is more nominations than anyone else ever in history, and the number of times he won is roughly the same number of times that everyone else in the world has won.

which is zero.

Lewis disliked this a great deal.

It's kind of like a baseball player having more hits than any other player in history, and no home runs.

He may have been the most influential chemist of all time.

He coined the term photon, he revolutionized how we think about acids and bases, and he produced the first molecule of heavy water.

He was the first person to conceptualize the covalent bond that we're talking about right now.

Gilbert Lewis died alone in his laboratory while working on cyanide compounds after having and who had worked on the Manhattan Project.

Many suspect that he killed himself with the cyanide compounds that he was working on, but the medical examiner said a heart attack.

without really looking into it.

I told you all that because, uh, the little Lewis -Dott structure that we use to represent how, uh, atoms bond to each other,

is something that was created by a troubled, uh, mad genius.

It's not some abstract scientific thing that's always existed, it's a tool that was thought up by a guy and it was so useful that we've been using it ever since.

In biology, most compounds can be displayed in Lewis -Dott structure form, and here's how that works.

These structures basically show how atoms bond together to make up molecules.

And one of the rules of thumb when making these diagrams is

that the elements that we're working with here react with one another in such a way

that each atom ends up with eight electrons in its outermost shell.

That is called the octet rule, because atoms want to complete their octets of electrons to be happy and satisfied.

Oxygen has six electrons in its octet and needs two, which is why we get H2O.

It can also bond with carbon, which needs four, so you get two double bonds to two different oxygen atoms and you end up with CO2.

That pesky global warming gas and also the stuff that makes all life on Earth possible.

Nitrogen has five electrons in its outer shell.

Here's how we count them: there are four placeholders.

Each of them wants two atoms.

And like people getting on a bus, they prefer to start out not sitting next to each other.

I'm not kidding about this, they really don't double up until they have to.

So for maximum happiness, nitrogen bonds with three hydrogens, forming ammonia.

Or with two hydrogens, sticking off another group of atoms, which we call an amino group.

acid group, then you have an amino acid.

You've heard of those, right?

Sometimes electrons are shared equally within a covalent bond, like with O2.

That's called a nonpolar covalent bond.

100

But often, one of the participants is more greedy.

101

In water, for example, the oxygen molecule sucks the electrons in

102

and they spend more time with the oxygen than with the hydrogens.

103

This creates a slight positive charge around the hydrogens and a slight negative charge and negative pole,

104

and so it's a polar covalent bond.

105

Now let's talk for a moment about a completely different type of bond, which is an ionic bond.

106

And that's when, instead of sharing electrons, atoms just completely, wholeheartedly donate or accept an electron from another atom, and then live happily as a charged atom.

107

And there actually is no such thing as a charged atom.

108

If an atom has a charge, it's an ion.

109

Atoms, in general, prefer to be neutral.

110

emotionally balanced and sexually satisfied, atoms will sometimes make sacrifices for that octet.

111

The most common ionic compound in our daily lives is, uh, salt.

112

Sodium chloride, NACL.

113

The stuff, despite its deliciousness, as I mentioned previously, is made up of two really nasty chemicals: sodium and chlorine.

114

Chlorine is what we call a halogen, which is an element that only needs one electron to fulfill its octet, and sodium is an alkali metal,

115

which means that it only has one electron in its octet.

116

So chlorine and sodium are so close to being satisfied

117

that they will happily destroy anything in their path in order to fulfill their octet.

118

outcome than just to get chlorine and sodium together and have them loving on each other.

119

They immediately transfer their electrons so that sodium doesn't have its one extra and chlorine fills its octet.

120

They become Na + and Cl - and are so charged

121

that they stick together and we call that stickiness an ionic bond.

122

And just like if you have two really crazy friends, it might be good to get them together so that they'll stop bothering you, same thing works with sodium and chlorine.

123

You get those two together and they'll bother no one.

124

And suddenly they don't want to destroy, they just want to be delicious.

125

Chemical changes like this are are a big frickin' deal.

126

Remember, chlorine and sodium just a second ago were definitely killing you, and now they're tasty.

127

Now we're coming to the last bond that we're going to discuss in our intro to chemistry here, and that's the hydrogen bond.

128

Imagine that you remember water.

129

I hope that you didn't forget water.

130

Since water is stuck together in a polar covalent bond, the hydrogen bit is positively charged and the oxygen bit is negatively charged.

131

So when water molecules are moving around, we generally think of them as a perfect fluid, You can actually see this with your eyes.

132

If you fill up a glass of water too full, it will bubble at the top.

133

The water will stick together at the top.

134

These relatively weak hydrogen bonds happen in all sorts of chemical compounds.

135

They don't just happen in water.

136

And they actually play an extremely important role in proteins, which are the chemicals that pretty much make up our entire bodies.

137

A final thing to note here is that bonds, even covalent bonds, ionic bonds, even with their own class, are often much different strengths.

138

I tend to just write them with a little line, but that line can represent a very, very strong covalent bond or a relatively weak covalent bond.

139

Sometimes ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds, though that's generally not the case, and the strength of covalent bonds varies wildly.

140

How these bonds are made and broken is intensely important to life and to our lives.

141

Making and breaking bonds is, in fact, the key to life itself.

142

And, like, also the key to death.

143

Keep this in mind as we move forward through biology.

144

Even the sexiest person you have ever met in your life

145

is just a collection of.. of organic compounds rambling around in a sack of water.

146

Review time!

147

Now we have the table of contents, which I know is supposed to come at the beginning of things, but we are revolutionary here.

148

We're doing it different.

149

So you can click on any of the things here

150

and you can go back and review what you learned or didn't learn.

151

And if you have questions, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please ask them in the comments and we'll be down there answering them for you. So, uh...

152

Thank you for joining us.

153

It was a pleasure!

154

It was a pleasure working with you today.

155

Thank you.

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
