Big Nate by Lincoln Peirce for July 13, 2014

Don’t need to memorize them when you have www.ptable.com

Try singing the Tom Lehrer version of it

but surely to win you would need to list them all and nobody could do…Oh wait, it’s Francis.

and yesterday’s poll was a…………………….TIE!!!

There’s antimony, arsenic, aluminum, selenium, And hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium And nickel, neodymium, neptunium, germanium, And iron, americium, ruthenium, uranium, Europium, zirconium, lutetium, vanadium And lanthanum and osmium and astatine and radium And gold, protactinium and indium and galliumAnd iodine and thorium and thulium and thallium.

There’s yttrium, ytterbium, actinium, rubidium And boron, gadolinium, niobium, iridium And strontium and silicon and silver and samarium, And bismuth, bromine, lithium, beryllium and barium.

There’s holmium and helium and hafnium and erbium And phosphorous and francium and fluorine and terbium And manganese and mercury, molybdenum, magnesium, Dysprosium and scandium and cerium and caesium.

Good enough for ya?

Ha the first panel is perfect

I know the ASAPscience version. Go to this link on youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUDDiWtFtEM

There’s Hydrogen and HeliumThen Lithium, BerylliumBoron, Carbon everywhereNitrogen all through the air

With Oxygen so you can breatheAnd Fluorine for your pretty teethNeon to light up the signsSodium for salty times

Magnesium, Aluminium, SiliconPhosphorus, then Sulfur, Chlorine and ArgonPotassium, and Calcium so you’ll grow strongScandium, Titanium, Vanadium and Chromium and Manganese

CHORUSThis is the Periodic TableNoble gas is stableHalogens and Alkali react agressivelyEach period will see new outer shellsWhile electrons are added moving to the right

Iron is the 26thThen Cobalt, Nickel coins you getCopper, Zinc and GalliumGermanium and Arsenic

Selenium and Bromine filmWhile Krypton helps light up your roomRubidium and Strontium then Yttrium, Zirconium

Niobium, Molybdenum, TechnetiumRuthenium, Rhodium, PalladiumSilver-ware then Cadmium and IndiumTin-cans, Antimony then Tellurium and Iodine and Xenon and then Caesium and…

Barium is 56 and this is where the table splitsWhere Lanthanides have just begunLanthanum, Cerium and Praseodymium

Neodymium’s next tooPromethium, then 62’sSamarium, Europium, Gadolinium and TerbiumDysprosium, Holmium, Erbium, ThuliumYtterbium, Lutetium

Hafnium, Tantalum, Tungsten then we’re on toRhenium, Osmium and IridiumPlatinum, Gold to make you rich till you grow oldMercury to tell you when it’s really cold

Thallium and Lead then Bismuth for your tummyPolonium, Astatine would not be yummyRadon, Francium will last a little timeRadium then Actinides at 89

REPEAT CHORUS

Actinium, Thorium, ProtactiniumUranium, Neptunium, PlutoniumAmericium, Curium, BerkeliumCalifornium, Einsteinium, FermiumMendelevium, Nobelium, LawrenciumRutherfordium, Dubnium, SeaborgiumBohrium, Hassium then MeitneriumDarmstadtium, Roentgenium, Copernicium

Ununtrium, FleroviumUnunpentium, LivermoriumUnunseptium, UnunoctiumAnd then we’re done!

Man that took 2 months for me to memorize

LOL Nate should have been more specific.

Snnnapp!

i would totally do that with my friends

I’m out!

Nate, when it’s anything you have to be ATTENTIVE in school to learn (and notice that Francis is reading a book….bet HE does the summer reading list every year!!), Francis’ll burn ya everytime!!

Nate is not smart at all compared to Francis. One time Gina got an 94 on a test and Nate got an 96. Gina also got detention.

Someone needs to pants that nerd

@superDavid You must be right

@superDavid You must be right

Hi

Yah

I’ve memorized Hydrogen to Arsenic.

I’ve memorized Hydrogen to Krypton.

theerreee’s hydrogen and helium and lithium beryllium boron carbon everywhere and nitrogen all through the air with oxygen so you can breathe and fluorine for your pretty teeth neon to light up the signs sodium for salty times

MAGNESIUM

aluminium silicon

PHOSPHORUS

then sulfur chlorine and argon

POTASSIUM

and calcium so you’ll grow strong

SCANDIUM

titanium vanadium and chromium and manganeeesee
