DEPROTONATED
Based on “Complicated” by Avril Lavigne
(…now don’t tell me I’m not modern enough!)

Chill out, hydrogen chloride:
You're on the acidic side,
You can turn blue litmus paper red,
So it’s said;
With base, you can neutralise,
Water makes you ionise
’Cos you lose a hydrogen ion
And you become
Cl^- and H₃O⁺
Your pH is low, ‘cos in H₂O
You deprotonate - H⁺ you donate, you see…
Tell me,
Why d'you have to go and get so deprotonated? 
I see the way you're
Split into your ions and you're fully dissociated,
You're low pH and
It's because your H⁺ you donate to a base, and you're great as a proton donor -

You're a strong acid 'cos your H⁺ is so concentrated...oh, oh

When you become aqueous,
You're then all plus and minus -
The reaction goes to completion;
In solution,
Water's weakly basic, so
That's where all your protons go:
They join to make hydroxonium
And you become

Cl^- and H₃O⁺
Your pH is low, ‘cos in H₂O
You deprotonate - H⁺ you donate, you see…
Tell me,
Why d'you have to go and get so deprotonated? 
I see the way you're
Split into your ions and you're fully dissociated,
You're low pH and
It's because your H⁺ you donate to a base, and you're great as a proton donor -

You're a strong acid 'cos your H⁺ is so concentrated...oh, oh, oh…

Chill out, hydrogen chloride:
You've been completely ionised,
And by your conjugate acid and base
You’ve been replaced:
Cl^- and H₃O⁺
Your pH is low, ‘cos in H₂O
You deprotonate - H⁺ you donate, you see…
Tell me,
Why d'you have to go and get so deprotonated? 
I see the way you're
Split into your ions and you're fully dissociated,
You're low pH and
It's because your H⁺ you donate to a base, and you're great as a proton donor -

You're a strong acid 'cos your H⁺ is so concentrated...oh, oh…

Top Ten ways to get thrown out of chemistry lab

• 10. Pretend an electron got stuck in your ear, and insist on describing the sound to others.
• 9. Give a cup of liquid nitrogen to a classmate and ask, "Does this taste funny to you?"
• 8. Consistently write three atoms of potassium as "KKK."
• 7. Mutter repeatedly, "Not again... not again... not again."
• 6. When it's very quiet, suddenly cry out, "My eyes!"
• 5. Deny the existence of chemicals.
• 4. Begin pronouncing everything your immigrant lab instructor says exactly the way he/she says it.
• 3. Casually walk to the front of the room and urinate in a beaker.
• 2. Pop a paper bag at the crucial moment when the professor is about to pour the sulfuric acid
• 1. Show up with a 55-gallon drum of fertilizer and express an interest in federal buildings.
