In this youtube video, it is trying to put a ban on DiHydrogen MonOxide

Watch the stupidity of the people in this clip.

(somewhat on the same topic as Totla's thread)

Clips like these show how lacking our nation's education system is. :(

Why did scientists come up with such a confusing name for water? ???

Pointless dumbass scientist.

I think he just came up with that, seeing as there's no name for crap like Carbon Monoxide or Carbon Dioxide, other than CO2 for Carbon Dioxide...

huh wut

Dihydrogen refers to 2 hydrogen atoms. Monoxide refers to 1 oxygen atom.

H2O.

Scientists refer to "water" as "water". It's so common that we don't use the IUPAC naming system for it. Pretty much the only other chemical that has that honor is ammonia.

there are many more than those two, aren't there?


but if you're pressured into signing something like that, you're not going to think "Hmm, what's Dihydrogen monoxide?"  You won't have heard of it before, because it's uncommonly used.

that's why this guy's show is poop.

not only because he's annoying.

You mean Penn and Teller? I saw them perform live once... It was pretty funny. :P

Yes, there are common names for many types of molecules. But if you wrote a scientific paper or something of the sort, those two would typically be the only ones that you'd call by their common names; you'd call water "water", and you'd call ammonia "ammonia".

You wouldn't call sodium chloride "table salt", and you wouldn't call nitrous oxide "laughing gas".
