Minerals with Silly or Unusual Names; CummingtoniteArsenoliteThis popular science book shows that chemists do have a sense of humor, and this book is a celebration of the quirky side of scientific nomenclature. Here, some molecules are shown that have unusual, rude, ridiculous or downright silly names. Written in an easy-to-read style, anyone - not just scientists - can appreciate the content. Each molecule is illustrated with a photograph and/or image that relates directly or indirectly to its name and molecular structure. Thus, the book is not only entertaining, but also educational.ChemistryNomenclaturePopular worksChemistryNomenclatureHumorChemistryPopular worksChemistryHumorChemistryChemistryChemistryChemistry540May Paul W1561194MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778081603321Molecules with silly or unusual names3827707UNINA
