Chemistry - Elements and Compounds
Nova - Hunting the Elements
Where do nature's building blocks, called the elements, come from? They're the hidden ingredients of everything in our world, from the carbon in our bodies to the metals in our smartphones. To unlock their secrets, David Pogue, technology columnist and lively host of NOVA's popular "Making Stuff" series, spins viewers through the world of weird, extreme chemistry: the strongest acids, the deadliest poisons, the universe's most abundant elements, and the rarest of the rare—substances cooked up in atom smashers that flicker into existence for only fractions of a second.
The worksheet for the video is beside here, and if you wish you can find the transcript for the entire show here. |

Slideshow - Chemistry
This slideshow is being built as the class progresses. I have uploaded a PDF of the slideshow for those that are absent.
Please contact a peer in class to see what you have missed and any notes required. If you have missed a lab or quiz, you will have to see me to book a time to make those up.
