Let’s Begin…

The team at periodicvideos has created a TED-Ed Lesson for every element of the periodic table. This one is about iron -- element 26 on the periodic table. We are going to find out more about it and have fun with the spectacular exothermic thermite reaction.

The ancient Mars Symbol (nowadays used to represent male gender) was used by alchemists to represent the element iron.
