Periodic table party

Look what happens when you get all the elements together.

Time to party! We've got goodies to eat, music to dance to, the only odd thing is all the guests are chemicals. This is a Periodic Table party. Neon is here, but she's an incredible snob, doesn't like to touch. Hydrogen, with his dewy blue eyes, wants to hook up with anybody. Carbon — well, Carbon is the hottest thing on the dance floor and can handle four partners at once...Go ahead, check it out...(you are, after all, mostly carbon based).

I took both Honors and Advanced Placement Chemistry in High School. This sure brings back memories of all the countless hours of calculations and the such.

I might pay my old chem teacher a visit just to show her this video. She was my favorite teacher of all time. She's very eccentric, I'm sure she'd get just as much a laugh from this as I did

That was different!

The youtube description says it explains why noble gases don't bond, but it doesn't really explain it, it just shows that they don't without explaining why.

That might be a fun little clip to show high school chemistry students. to break the monotony for 90 seconds.
