And that electron disappears.

likely to find an electron.

And carbon has lost the electron.

The electron gets excited by photons.

So, an electron has negative charge.

We have that magenta electron right over there.

I'll only draw the unpaired electron.

So after that electron keeps entering lower and lower energy states, the final electron acceptor is NADP plus.

Or you can also view them as electron acceptors along the way.

And now the oxygen can hog that electron.

If one guy is kind of hogging the electron more, for the sake of oxidation states, we're going to assume that he took the electron.

So here, carbon got to hog the electron.

So if you have it right here, Lewis base is an electron donor.

And so if it's the electron donor, what is it?

And then what the effect of a magnetic field is on an electron.

Or not an electron, on a moving charge.

After this happens, the electron is emitted from the nucleus into the electron cloud.

And then from there we proceed to the electron transport chain.

And it actually turns out that even one electron is still a magnetic dipole.

And then that electron essentially gets passed from one guy to the next, that begs the question, what can we use to replace that electron?

This means that this electron is just going to go back to this chlorine, and this other magenta electron is going to go back to the right chlorine, so we can draw it like that.

And so this function of where an electron is, this is called an orbital.

The electron moves outside of its normal, predictable electron cloud five percent of the time.

This hydrochloric acid is donating a proton to this water molecule, right?

You're actually hearing and seeing the electron flow with the lines.

But these are actually the inputs in the electron transport chain.

Every NADH in the electron transport chain produces three ATPs.

This hydrogen can pretend like he has this electron.

Now every time an electron goes from a higher energy state to a lower energy state and that's what it's doing over the course of this electron transport chain it's releasing energy.

And then if that hydrogen gets transferred to an oxygen, along with the electron, the carbon will lose the hydrogen atom, but it really lost the electron that it was hogging before.

In the photoemission process, if an electron within some material absorbs the energy of one photon and acquires more energy than the work function (the electron binding energy) of the material, it is ejected.

And it's the same thing, because when you gain a hydrogen atom, including its electron, since hydrogen is not too electronegative, you get to hog its electron.

When an electron is in motion, it generates a magnetic field.

But the electron really could be anywhere.

Remember, whenever I say pluck the hydrogen, just the proton, not the electron for the hydrogen.

The primary electron acceptor is actually this molecule right here.

These molecules right here get oxidized in the electron transport chain.

And what if we could get exquisite control over the essence of energy, the electron?

In order to repeat the reaction, the electron in the reaction center needs to be replenished.

And so that's what was tempting about the original model of an electron.

I guess we could call it that way are the electron and the neutron.

And this device uses electron tunneling.

So two of them are going to produce four ATPs in the electron transport chain.

And the way they depicted this, black is a higher probability, so you're much more likely to find the electron here than you are here.

But the idea is that an electron has a negative charge.
