Thanks to Cali and her Geekbrief I came across a site called Periodic Videos, a site operated by the University of Nottingham. This site combines the periodic table we all know from chemistry class with… fun!
In a Mythbusters-way they have made a video about each of the (currently) 118 elements in the periodic table which is both educational and entertaining. Worth checking out!
Here are some popular examples:
Sodium (Na)
Helium (He)
Oxygen (O)
And 3 elements recommended by the site itself:
Phosphorus (P)
Lanthanum (La)
Mercury (Hg)
