Chemistry and music!

During these summer days, it is nice to go out for a walk, a drink and may be to listen some good life music. Music is a form of art, particularly is the art of generating, manipulating and making new combinations of sounds. We always know how close is chemistry, among all the other sciences, to art and any artistic form of expression. In our science, there is a formal code to communicate chemistry and the results of any experiment. To write in any international journal, every scientist has to follow some rules and the language is strictly formal. It was really surprising for me to discover on Internet there are a lot of videos in which some scientific concepts like chemical reactions, or the enthalpy variation, are explained in a song form. I am really convinced that this new way of teaching can affect the learning of science and also stimulate students in their studies.
