A Chemist Explains the ENTIRE History of Atomic Theory

I love this content, some of the most comprehensive science stuff on Youtube, I'm really happy I found it!

Kudos for taking the time to try to pronounce the names of those involved correctly. That says a lot. Subscribed!

I'm really dumb when it comes to chemistry, but I've always admired chemists, and love history. This channel is going to be great 🧙🏿‍♂️⚗️🧪

When we reached the atomists in a class I took my mind was blown by how much they were able to intuit via logic and reasoning. It was only the lack of tools to test these theories that allowed the idea to die out for centuries.

when things are taught this way it makes me want to learn it all. to understand the old work and then see the new findings in their context

I am teaching this story to my students every year, you did an impressing job here! Everything is accurate, contributors, names and names pronunciations are all correct. Please make other similar contents on any scientific subject you may pick!

Opening with the big firecracker nice indeed. New 2 your channel will be here for a while great work indeed.

Wow, this was one of the best chemistry, history and physics videos I have seen for a while. Go on your videos are amazing🤩

You earned my subscription! Fantastic explanations of the models and how things were uncovered. I thought I knew quite a bit and there were definitely some things I knew but this filled in a lot of gaps. The only difference I think about your ending statement is that people have evil hearts and will take things that are good like nuclear power and make it into weapons. I know that we have recently been able to induce fusion reactions, but I think the ultimate source of energy will come when we are able to annihilate atoms via anti-matter, but this too I fear will become weaponized. Thanks for the amazing content, I look forward to your next.

39:45 he said her full name like a true historian should. Polish people are grateful for this historical accuracy as "Skłodowska" is omitted very often these days.

I just discovered your channel. It’s people like you that make YouTube worth exploring. I find your latest videos just fascinating. I’m sitting up here on my porch in West Virginia, having a ball watching what you’ve created. Thank you, my man!

I'm a fairly new sub and I must say that your style of video essay seems to suit me rather well. The story you're telling here is fascinating and crucial to understanding the history of science. I'm familiar with some parts of the story already but I've also learned quite a bit. Thanks for that.

Hey Man I love your videos and your idea of combining of history and chemistry. In class we are taught a bleek and boring lectures of such fundamental yet highly interesting topics, Thanks

Watched this in a VR headset. Both the video and sound editing are just unbelievable. I hope your channel explodes in popularity.

We were given all this for free in school with no idea how hard won it was.

Wow this channel is amazing, as someone very interested in history but also physics and chemistry, (just as a side hobby, I am by no means an academic) this checks all the boxes for a subscription! Thanks!

Great video, thanks for making it

Took me back to as level physics class, pleased i paid a bit of attention then. fascinating doc! Well explained, great edits, hope you can continue to make more!

Wow man. Fantastic video! And very good pronunciation of both German and French names. I’m very impressed. Well done!

46:13 howdy friend, this was an excellent documentary — you’re an amazing educator / editor / producer / historian! I did want to suggest two additional chapters at the end: 1. Cover Randal Mill’s “hydrino”, an even lower energy state for hydrogen. 2. Cover the Structured Atom Model (SAM) which provides GREAT intuitive insight into atomic behavior using a highly simplified model (it’s incredibly simple yet intuitively explains many otherwise peculiar facts about atom splitting and merging and max size). Have a great week!
