Orbitals Pins and Buttons
Description: A colorful, retro-style graphic featuring an orange fish with three eyes. The fish is positioned centrally and appears to be surrounded by atomic orbital paths with colored spheres. Text above reads "PROPERTY OF SPRINGFIELD EST. 1989", and text below reads "Isotopes ATHLETIC DEPARTMENT".
Description: Fun chemistry design with a drawing of sp3 hybridised atomic orbitals drawn in blue and purple watercolor pencils. This geek artwork may represent orbitals in the molecule of methane, silicomethane and other chemical compounds. This design is great for a chemist, scientist and someone who loves chemistry, especially organic chemistry.
Description: The orbitals are swirling in Storistir to make holiday ornaments! Iron, element 26, is very abundant on earth and in stars. Iron is needed to help carry oxygen to the blood in animals, and is crucial in making chlorophyll in plants. The Latin for iron or "firmness" is ferrum, which is why the symbol for Iron is Fe.
Description: The orbitals are swirling in Storistir to make holiday ornaments! Lanthanum, element 57, is the lead of the Lanthanides, and the largest and most reactive of the rare earth elements. Lanthanum is soft enough to be cut with a knife, and is used in flint, arc lighting, clear glass, optical devices, hydrogen-powered vehicles, and electronic devices.
Description: The orbitals are swirling in Storistir to make holiday ornaments! Strontium is not radioactive typically. However, Strontium-90 (Sr-90) is, since it's a man-made byproduct of nuclear fission and waste. If you look at the Periodic Table of Elements, Strontium sits right below Calcium. Sr-90 is a health concern because if ingested, it acts like calcium and can cause cancers of the bone, bone marrow and surrounding tissues.
Description: The orbitals are swirling in Storistir to make holiday ornaments! Bromine, element 35, is part of the halogen family. Bromine was name after the Greek word bromos meaning stench and is considered hazardous, playing a part in depleting ozone and oxidizing mercury. Yet, ironically, its compounds are used as flame retardants.
Description: The orbitals are swirling in Storistir to make holiday ornaments! Gold, from the Latin Aurum or shining dawn, is one of the seven metals of antiquity, and the symbol for the sun. Gold is malleable, ageless, bright, inert and durable through time. It has uses beyond coinage and jewelry, such as in medicine, dentistry and plating of electronic components. The largest gold nugget found was the Welcome Stranger.
