Diamonds are made out of Carbon. it is the most concentradet form. Carbon is very common it is on our bodies and everywhere. diamonds are made under the earths crust. They are brought upwith magma; vulcanoes, they were made over 1 billion years ago. they gave diamonds to people who win a nobel price. they are hard and they can only be made in a special heat. Oregs made of diamonds. They will use diamonds also in the future for computers. The largest cut diamond on Earth is called " The golden jewel.It has 546 Karat diamond and it fits in the palm of your hand.
There are also cosmic diamonds which are made in the galaxy.

Periodic Table of Videos
I did not really notice which element was not presented but I think it was Potassium or H2o, but I am not too sure about that. In the videos I often saw a reaction that had to do with a Balloon which was quite interesting. The three elements I learned about.
1. Helium, if you would put it into a balloon and then try to burn it; it only pops. The Scientists say that if we are going to was Helium just like that then we soon in the future won't have anything anymore.
2. Sodium, is very dangerous, you should not use it with out someone watching you, if you cut some sodium off and put it into water, then it starts burning and flaming.
3. Carbon is an extraordinary important element, it is also use it weigh other elements. It is a very nice and soft black powder.

Chemical Party Reflection
In my opinion, i think the video was pretty funny because
1. The neon + Hydrogen = no attraction ...
but carbon + hydrogen = Attraction!
and also other(4) hydrogens can attract!
2. Sodium Chloride + Electricity = element separation.
3. Water + potassium = at first ??? after; Explosive Reaction!!!

Octet Rule and Models
What is the Octet rule?
The octet rule is a simple chemical rule of thumb that states that atoms tend to combine in such a way that they each have eight electrons in their valence shells, giving them the same electronic configuration as a noble gas.
For me this means that the "Octet Rule" is just a chemical rule that explains the atoms and the electronic configuration.

What is a Bohr Diagram?
The Bohr model, devised by Niels Bohr, depicts the atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons that travel in circular orbits around the nucleus—similar in structure to the solar system, but with electrostatic forces providing attraction, rather than gravity.
What I am trying to say is that the nucleus orbits around the solar system but with electrostatic force.

What is a Lewis Dot Diagram?
The Bohr model gives almost exact results only for a system where two charged points orbit each other at speeds much less than that of light. This not only includes one-electron systems such as the hydrogen atom, singly-ionized helium, doubly ionized lithium, but it includes positronium and Rydberg states of any atom where one electron is far away from everything else.
In my own words this would mean that a Bohr model gives a similar result only for a system where two charged points each other at speeds which are not that fast such as light; and that it shouldn't always include one-electron system such as the hydrogen atom, singly-ionized helium, doubly ionized lithium, but it includes positronium and Rydberg states of any atom where one electron is far away from everything else.

Evidence of a Reaction
Someone just shook the class, after a while it turned to a bright yellow to an orange until to a orange red. Foam went over the glass and smoke came out of it.
In my opinion I really like this video because they actually explain it to you.
What is water???
I found out that water is a molecule that consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Also Water is a ubiquitous chemical substance that is composed of hydrogen and oxygen and is vital for all known forms of life. that if we have too much water we don’t get drunk but we can dround. Our body has 75percent of water in our body. There is a funny fact I recently read about; if you shave your legs then you do not really get a sunburn.
