The Periodic Table: Crash Course Chemistry #4

Spread The Viralist



Hank gives us a tour of the most important table ever, including the life story of the obsessive man who championed it, Dmitri Mendeleev. The periodic table of elements is a concise, information-dense catalog of all of the different sorts of atoms in the universe, and it has a wealth of information to tell us if we can learn to read it.

  1. Oi! The stone table is so much more important! Don’t get me wrong I love science but nothing can beat Aslan!
    I like Mendeleev. He sounds like a cool guy.

  2. I enjoy learning this stuff but boy do I hate the style. It's not funny and kind of annoying.
    No doubt these are smart people making these videos, but it's a shame they felt like they have to stoop down to stupid levels for their audience. It's kind of insulting.

  3. Hello,
    I notice that in the Halogens "slide" says "LOW ionization energy".. wouldn't be HIGH ionization energy?
    Sorry if i'm just confusing infos. 😅.
    Great video series so far! Thanks!!! 👏👏👏🙏

  4. Not to be offensive but you need to get to the point of what your trying to get across the audience and don’t ramble on about some random things that are not to do with the topic and speak clear and slow that way the audience will have a better understanding of what you are saying . However overall the video is very good and full of information . Well done
