Atomic Theory Rap

ChemisTRIO [Tyler Wright, Harry Lee, AJ Ellis] rap about the Atomic Theory and its development throughout history. Its also a preview to the exciting movie for Sciera's AP Chem class!

*****Lyrics*****
"Refrain: I'm like inny, minny, mighty, mo
Atomic Theory on the go
I know you'll learn it,
I know you'll learn it.
I'm like inny, minny, mighty, mo
Atomic Theory on the go
I know you'll learn it,
I know you'll learn it.

Back in the day of the big B.C.
Democritus started developing the Atomic Theory
He developed a piece of matter called "Atomus"
It could never be split and it caused some fuss
A Man named Aristotle challenged it
He said it didn't matter it could always be split
People listened to him and forgot the truth
Recovering it would be the folks of the A.D. youth

Refrain

It wasn't until A.D. 1803
When we would once again see the atomic theory
A couple scientists researched it before then
They were Boiler, LaVoisier, Priestly, and Bacon
But none of them had it like my man Dalton J
He developed four principles that still exist today
Another important man was Avogadro
6.02 times 10 to the 23 was his flow

Refrain

With the gold foil experiment we learned about the nucleus
Now today Rutherford proves what it means to us
We got the neutrons, electrons, and protons too
And we understand the making of me and you

Refrain

Hahaha, thanks my Gavin Vawter for producing this track, we'll look you up again bro, that's ChemisTRIO, we're out baby, we're out"

OK guys, don't give up your day job, seriously. If you want some fill in from the Greeks to the 1800s check out William R. Newman, PhD's books: "Promethean Ambitions: Alchemy & the Quest to Perfect Nature," "Gehennical Fire: The Lives of George Starkey, An American Alchemist in the Scientific Revolution," "Alchemy: Tried in the Fire," & others -- all about the evolution of atomic theory from the Greeks to Newton. You do know that atomic theory is a theory, right? ...we really don't know much.

The point of this video is a fun, semi-educational rap. We did this as a project in a chemistry class in high school....

[030151]

Yeah, Dr. Newman's a chemist. He studied at Harvard & is currently head of the History & Philosophy of Science Department @ Indiana University. He's found the thread of atomic theory through alchemy to Boyle & Newton. "Keep your day job" is standard advice to budding artists - like telling an actor to "bread a leg."

Really? This was for a chem class? ...& RecksMs got credit for singing it for his class? Amazing! Woe for American Ed!

But what this vid needed was a director w/ a vision.

030151,

None of us are "budding artists." Yes, I was the director and I had a vision: "Score a perfect score on my chemistry project by creating a humorous, somewhat accurate rap on a chemistry top." We have no aspirations to learn anymore about the Atomic Theory than the basic "Wikipedia" level research we did for writing this rap.

I think your sarcasm is ridiculous, how can you woe American education based on a 3 minute fun video? Sounds like an illogical fallacy to me!

[NYwrestling]

this actually helped me understand atomic theory

[OptimusBronze]

@030151 your a fucking dumbass

[Epictennisgirl99]

My teacher showed me this.... It was funny!!!!

LOVE THE RAP!  got it stuck in my head!

[gacuna2014]

I find this hard to give me a boner

[bethejuanton]

@LoVids96 i know! it was awesome! and then the last week we must have watched ten more times!!!

[mkstonehard]

this is embarrasing

[LoVids96]

we watched this in physics class haha i luv u guys sooo funny we walked round skool all day singin this!

[GBaBy5149]

you taught me more in 3min than my chem teacher did in 4 months...thanks!
