I saw one of my previous student, my first #chemistry major 🥹
This is the analogy I created (literally no AI) for my first #chemist student 🥹😭
“When evaluating an integral, what you are doing in a sense is you are bringing all the variables up by one dimension and dividing THAT respective term by the new coefficient of THAT respective variable’s dimension. It’s like the reverse process of taking a derivative. For example if you have a trinomial in which all terms have a variable, they all go up by one dimension and each term is SEPERATELY divided by the new coefficient of its variable dimension, you do this for each term separately. IF you have a term that does not have a variable, what you do is, you add in a new variable in this case ‘x’ and at the very end you add a constant’ C’, the constant will be your last term every time you are evaluating an integral.
(this will change once you get to calculus volume three, calculus one only has you working with single variable problems, such as x)
For illustration purposes, lets say that you want to create an amino acid, but before you do that, AGAIN this is for illustration purposes: we have our nitrogen containing amino group and the carboxylic acid group and in order to get your desired solution, you find out that you need to bring them up a certain number of dimensions (integral illustration) and once they are at those desired dimensions, you can finally add in your ALPHA CARBON to get your desired amino acid. You can think of the constant as the ALPHA CARBON when creating an amino acid.”
