| So I was wondering (I have weird thoughts sometimes...) while studying my chemistry. I already had the discussion with a fellow student and we concluded we could argue hours about this. Furthermore, this this Internet, and a forum, we basically complain and argue about everything and anything. I just realised my first sentence means no sense at all, well, who cares. What is you favourite chemical element ? God dammit let me write favourite how I fucking want !! Of course, as chemists, we will give explanations about our chosen one and why it's the best while others are the worst. OP will start : Hydrogen Atomic number 1 Most abundant element Without it, there's nothing Acid-base reactions Here is the periodic table (big ass picture) |
 |
| I'd say carbon. It is on of the most versatile solid elements, it can be made into extremely tiny balls, tubes, fabric, and is incredibly strong when bonded right, but sometimes it can be extremely brittle. Such harsh juxtaposition is beatiful <3 |

| Neon- because its as bright as my personality joking, I have a cruel personality |
| Schools out, No job at moment, STILL hello MAL Eh..I will try to be online |
| Quit MAL, go study. Oxygen. |

Forgetfulness said: I already did my AP Chem exam :C STAHP REMINDING ME ABOUT CHEMISTRY QFT, one year later probably carbon cause organic chemistry was the unit that i did well on in ap chem in biology tho carbon does a lot w/o hydrogen i don't think we'd have a fiery sun so that comes in second I guess for me. |

| Carbon, the building blocks of life. |
| Rutherfordium There is no use to it. |
 |
| Oxygen. It lets me breath and live and makes fires and stuff. |

Chakaara said: Nikin said: Rutherfordium There is no use to it. I don't know this one. rutherford did the gold foil experiment its some man made element in his honor i'm sure theres something dumb like californium too |

| the unun ones. enough said. |
 |
| Lithium, because it's an awesome song too... and well you know. |
 |
| Uranium for obvious reasons. |
| わたしはりんごがすきです. あなた は バカ です :3 |
| Kakine Teitoku's Unknown Matter is my favorite element because I am a weeaboo. no but seriously i'd say platinum because it is shiny |
 |
| Darmstadtium obviously |
 |
| Helium. Lots of alcohol, friends and some helium never had so much fun before : ) |
 |
| Aluminum because it's light and shiny. |
| Mercury, because its a liquid element, and a metal at that. |
 |
| Sugar, spice and everything nice. |
| Potassium bruh. Dem bones needs dem... |

| Californium. American af. |
| I am important. I have a girlfriend. Check out my podcast |
| Uranium, why? It sounds awesome. |

| Xenon. It's being used as a propellant for ion thrusters in spacecraft. Also lasers. |
 |
| Revising chemistry... Come onto MAL for a break and oh hai more chemistry. Francium - Probably has a badass reaction with water. |
 |
| Pantsunium. For it's efficiency in chemical warfare: fire a few ounces at the enemy resulting in death from blood loss via the nasal cavity. |
| Einsteinium Atomic number 99. Lets people travel through time. |
 |
| Oxygen and Potassium's OK I guess. I swear every time I come here the threads get weirder. I'll probably go with copper, copper and brass look nice when they're polished. |

| Silver walks into a pub, sees gold and yells: 'AU, get outta here!' sorry about the tasteless chemistry joke but all of the good ones argon Jesus Christ I hate myself. |

| Two chemists walk into a bar. The bartender asks them what they want, and the first one said "I'll have some H2O." The second one said "I'll have some H2O too." The second one died. |

| I wanted to make a science joke but all of them argon. Why don't we take all of the chemistry jokes and barium? |
|
| Okay, wait.... i got a joke. The chemical element Nickel was walking down a street and saw a hobo. The hobo said " Brother, can you spare a dime?" So, then Nickel said" Hmmm..... I'd give you a dime if i could, but all I have is a............nickel." |

| ^That seems more like a setup to a Nickelback joke. |

| Alright, let me give this a try. So argon walks into a bar and sits down at the counter, and the bartender says, "We don't serve noble gases around these parts. Get outta here!" Argon doesn't react. *BA DUM TSS* Anyway, my favorite element would probably be Calcium (I like how it makes your bones strong) or Rhenium (cool name). |
And what if all love is an act of bravery? Could you look me in the eye and say that you are not afraid?  |

| Carbon - like someone said earlier, it's versatile. And because I love organic chemistry. Chromium - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintuple_bond |

| #12, son. Magnesium can save your life. It can burn in almost any condition (including under water) so if you need a fire started, it can get the job done. It can also generate other key elements (Hydrogen, Carbon etc) depending on the environment in which it is burned or immersed. |
| I never thought about stuff like this before in my life. |
