This was part of my final project for chemistry class. Sorry about the audio on some shots; i was using a camera with no mic so its hard to hear for some. To the tune of Ridin' by Chamillionaire, starring:
Simon Mait (Main rapper)

Lyrics:
I see a dead plant
Or animal
Want to know how long ago it died
Just use carbon dating
Just use carbon dating
Just use carbon dating
Just use carbon dating
Photosynthesis
Carbon 14
All you gotta do is analyze it
Just use carbon dating
Just use carbon dating
Just use carbon dating
Just use carbon dating

[Verse 1 - Simon]
Analyze a dead entity
You can tell if it died in infancy
It is produced in the upper atmosphere
With O two drops to the terrestrial sphere
Photosynthesis, plants consume it
When animals eat the greenery C fourteen enters the food chain
And it remains until they are slain
And at that point, the carbon starts decaying
And scientists can start analyzing
They can date it back to Vikings
Or even a dynasty, how bout Ming
You may be asking how they do this
Five seven three zero is the half-life
Scientists compare this to the real amount and get the time it takes to reach that point
This can find, but of course
The age of a specific source
Something like the hair of a horse
But how does it relate to AP Chemistry?
It is an element, and an isotope
First and second order plus the half-life

[Chorus]
