Unfortunately, not able to be embedded. Definitely worth a look at these! They are available for purchase, with a bunch of related material here: http://markrosengarten.com/chemvids.html

And to make our sometimes overbearing government happy: I have no affiliation with the creator of this material and have received no money or property in exchange for suggesting his materials. I just like good science songs and try to pass them along when I can.

Enjoy!
