Iridium

Oh, chemistry books. It figures that my mom and sister would find me a "chemistry experiments at home" book and that I would find myself another book about the periodic table :) Check them out!

Find it here!

Find it here!

Maybe I've started to open my eyes to chemistry, but I think the periodic table is making a style comeback (no, but seriously). Today in Barnes and Noble, I was tempted to buy a 1000 piece puzzle of the elements (how easy would that be to figure out?!) AND they have 2012 planners with the elements. Science, my friends, is clearly cool. Or, I am clearly a dork - your choice.


Fun Fact: Spark plugs containing iridium can last up to 100,000 miles - you'd maybe replace those twice in a car's lifetime.

    The world is obviously finally starting to celebrate the international year of chemistry. And the second book you posted about is one that I have actually checked out of the library before during my stint as chem club president.
