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!

I Found the Most Insane Creationist Propaganda of All Time
Click this link: https://boot.dev/?promo=PROFESSORDAVE and use my code PROFESSORDAVE to get 25% off your first payment for boot.dev! You have never seen creationist propaganda like this. There's a guy that's supposed to be like an Indiana Jones type dude, there's a kid who's supposed to be like Marty McFly and the Doc combined into one character, and there's a robot dinosaur who eats popcorn and pukes and does impressions. Nobody could write parody like this if they tried. The crappy dialogue and acting, the worst editing imaginable, and the most laughable attempt at indoctrinating children ever conjured by a human mind. Watch along and laugh with me.

Italian Counting Numbers
A very basic thing in any language is learning how to count. You will use the numbers from one through ten constantly! When you tell time, when you interact with people at the market, or around town, you name it. So these first few must be memorized! But from there, it becomes quite simple to build out any other number imaginable, so let's hit all the basic number-related vocabulary right now!

Dan Richards is a Pointless Troll
As many of you have noticed, I've taken to adding pseudoarcheology charlatans to my list of grifting frauds to debunk. I started out with their godfather, Graham Hancock. That pissed off all of his loser acolytes something awful, prompting one of them, Dan Richards, to make a pathetic response video. So I decided to respond back and bury his dumb face even more than I already have. Apart from crapping on his response video, I also decided to comment on his most recent video on Egyptology, where he shows the world precisely how brainless he is. Strap in, the level of stupidity here will shock even regular viewers of my channel.

Oxidation and Reduction
This is different from the redox we knew from general chemistry. It's not so much about highlighting electron transfer as it is about the number of bonds to oxygen that an atom possesses. An oxidation increases a carbon's bonds to oxygen, a reduction reduces a carbon's bonds to oxygen. Makes sense, no? Let's look at some common oxidizing and reducing agents while we're at it.

Ablative of Agent (Ablativus Auctoris)
When converting sentences in the active voice into passive voice, we will be turning the subject of the sentence into the personal agent.

Classification of Differential Equations
Now that we know what differential equations are, we have to learn how to classify them. We have to know whether a DE is ordinary or partial, linear or nonlinear, homogenous or nonhomogenous, autonomous or nonautonomous. We have to be able to determine both the order and the degree of the DE. We have to know the difference between explicit, implicit, and general solutions. We have to know what boundary conditions mean. Let's go over all of this together!

Finding the Area Between Two Curves by Integration
By now we are very familiar with the concept of evaluating definite integrals to find the area under a curve. But this always gives us the area between a curve and the x-axis. Is there some other way to apply integration to find some different area? Yes there is! We can also find the area between any two curves on the coordinate plane over some interval, simply by subtracting two integrals. It's easier than you think! Let's find the area between two curves.
