Year 11 Chemistry

Sing a song of sulfide,

A beaker full of lime.

Four and twenty test tubes

Breaking at a time.

When the bottle's opened

The fumes begin to reek.

Isn't that a lovely way

To spend five days a week.

6 Small Molecules
 


There once was a chemist, Lenore.

But she isn't a chemist no more.

'Cause what she thought was H-2-O,

Was H-2-S-O-4!

Harvey was a dentist,

But now his career is through,

'Cause what he thought was N2O

Was really NO2.

Uncle Harry was a chemist

Uncle Harry is no more

What Uncle Harry thought was H2O

Was H2SO4

May her rest be long and placid,

She added water to the acid,

The other girl did as she oughter,

She added ACID to the WATER.

Johnny finding life a bore, Drank some H2SO4

Johnny's father, and M.D., Gave him some CaCO3

Now Johnny's neutralized its true,

But he's also full of CO2
