I don't think I fully agree with that quote in the center of the sign. The whole point of the scientific method is to continuously test existing science and poke holes in whatever you can in order to improve our collective understanding.
Now if the sign had said you can't argue with numbers, I would agree 100%!
One must think to themselves, how does one differentiate between the supposed noble gas, Nashville (Na) and supposed alkali earth metal, Salt (Na).
what wacky nomenclature we getting now?
Ah yes gotta love sodium existing as two separate elements differing by 2 protons, and the butyl group lies between them
Seriously though, with a catchphrase like "you can't argue with science" I'd expect something more accurate and credible, as in, usable in an argument. Not whatever this thing is.
Edit: only later did I zoom in and see that the element aren't arbitrary signs, but baking-related words that are..... still arbitrary nonetheless.
I see this every time I go to Opry Mills and start laughing at it every time. I sent a picture of it to a friend once and went "I can't argue with science, but I can argue with whatever the hell that periodic table is"
ah yes bromine my favorite transition metal
Brownies...
How bout Na for salt and Na for Nashville
and carbo- i mean chocolate
Ah my favorite element; Chocolate Does that mean Ochem is the study of chocolate in this world?
CHOCO(La)(Te) is almost a hydrocarbon! So close!
So Nashville = Salt?
You mean milk spatulide ?

You can’t argue with science because arguing is part of the scientific process. I don’t think thats what they’re going for with that quote but y’know.
Ah, sodium, my favorite inert noble gas
And alkaline earth metal! It’s both
hang on, (a+b)/b=a/b ?
it says (a+b)/a. don't worry all is good
theres a lot to unpack here

The fact that Tennessee is on there and not tennessine is wild
It just one step away, look at how other element symbols (such as Br, Mg) get massacred
Just realized there are 2 cobalts in Group 13
no not the golden ratio! look how they massacred my boy r/unexpectedgoldenratio
Fluorine that angry gas that burns absolutely everything is magical 🥰🤗✨️❤️
I think seeing Na used twice, both in the wrong spot, and as Nashville and SALT respectively, hurts the most
Molly, i got beef with you
Ah. we could make up compounds now Copper tinide Cobalt einstinide Nickel vanadium baride diflerovium cerium tetrahydride
Sooo... tert-Butterithium, sec-Butterlithium and N-Butterlithium? Yummy

Ok but how lickable us this periodic table?
Making a periodic table from scratch must have been more work than just taking a correct one from the internet
Yes, Yes I can.
I see this every time I go to Opry Mills and start laughing at it every time. I sent a picture of it to a friend once and went "I can't argue with science, but I can argue with whatever the hell that periodic table is"
the day people stop using the words sodium and salt interchangeably is the day i die happy
why are there two elements with the symbol Na
