Professor Dave Explains

Welcome! I have a knack for explaining stuff and I want to share some knowledge with you.

I received a BA in chemistry from Carleton College, and performed graduate studies in both synthetic organic chemistry and science education at Cal State Northridge, receiving an MA in the latter. Prior to this I taught for about a decade in various high school and undergraduate settings, specializing in organic chemistry but also teaching general chemistry, physics, and biology.

This channel is for students at the high school and undergraduate level, but it is also for members of the general public who just want to know more about the world and how things work. My goal is to increase science literacy in our society, so please share these tutorials with anyone that you think might enjoy them. Happy learning!

    Multiplying Binomials by the FOIL Method

    We just learned how to add and subtract polynomials, so now we have to learn how to multiply them. This is a little tricky at first, but once we master the FOIL method, it's easy as pie!

    Dan Richards is Completely Obsessed With Me (So is Danny Jones)

    It's time to dunk on Sasquatch Taint some more! This idiot has been running his mouth about how badly he wants to "debate" me, since that's the only way he can pretend to remain relevant. Also, Danny Jones has decided to pull a Joe Rogan and slander me regularly, so let's make fun of him some more too, along with another one of his idiot guests, Kurt Metzger.

    Cyclohexane Chairs

    Cyclohexane makes weird shapes! The most important is the chair conformation. Here we will learn how to draw cyclohexane chairs, how to flip them, the difference in energy between the two chair conformations, and between axial and equatorial substituents. Chairs are easy place to lose points on exams if you don't draw them just right!

    Three-Dimensional Shapes Part 2: Calculating Volume

    We introduced a number of three-dimensional shapes in the last clip, but we still just talked about two-dimensional surface area. What's up with that? Alright, alright, let's learn how to calculate the three-dimensional volume that a shape will occupy. This is like the amount of water that a shape could hold if it was perfectly hollow. This can be a little tricky for the more complicated shapes, but there are equations we can memorize if we so desire. Check it out!

    Genitive of the Whole

    We know about the genitive case, which is used to describe specification or possession. Then there is the genitive of the whole, or genitive partitive. This is used with words denoting a part, when we want to describe a portion of something. Let's check it out!

    Comparing Vertebrates and Invertebrates

    Now that we have wrapped up the invertebrate chordates, it's time to tackle the third and by the far the largest subphylum of Chordata, Vertebrata. So what is a vertebrate? By contrast, what is an invertebrate? What do these terms mean in the context of phylogeny? Let's make sure this is well understood before examining the vertebrates.

    Numerical Methods for Solving Differential Equations

    Solving differential equations can get pretty tricky, but in this modern age we have some tools that can be very useful. We can use computers to carry out sophisticated numerical methods that can solve any differential equation, no matter how complex. Let's learn how to use Euler's method, Heun's method, and the Runge-Kutta fourth order method, or RK4.

    EPA Head Lee Zeldin is a Freaking Nightmare

    Trump's second-term cabinet is the stuff of nightmares. I've talked about Bobby Kennedy's dismantling of HHS quite a bit, but it's not just public health that is in shambles under this administration. The environment is on the chopping block as well, especially under new EPA head Lee Zeldin. The person who is supposed to be in charge of protecting the citizenry by preventing the private sector from polluting our air and water is actively siding with the polluters and making sure they have all the freedom to pollute as much as they want. It's difficult to describe how much of a worthless cretin this guy is, but let's give it a shot.
