In organic chemistry, a Platonic hydrocarbon is a hydrocarbon (molecule) whose structure matches one of the five Platonic solids, with carbon atoms replacing its vertices, carbon–carbon bonds replacing its edges, and hydrogen atoms as needed. Not all Platonic solids have molecular hydrocarbon counterparts; those that do are the tetrahedron (tetrahedrane), the cube (cubane), and the dodecahedron (dodecahedrane). (Wikipedia).
In this video I make hydrobromic acid from sulfuric acid and sodium bromide. You can also use potassium bromide.

Plato's Theory of Ideas or Forms
A few clips which provide a pretty good explanation of Plato's Theory of Forms or Ideas. I believe all the clips come from the Multimedia Encyclopedia of the Philosophical Sciences, but I'm not 100% sure, it has been such a long time since I originally put it together on the previous chann

Plato: Biography of a Great Thinker
The Greek philosopher Plato was a student of Socrates, and teacher of Aristotle. He wrote on a wide variety of topics including Politics, Aesthetics, Cosmology, and Epistemology. To this day, we refer to “Platonic Love” and “Platonic Ideals.” Plato’s search for knowledge and truth formed t

How to Construct a Dodecahedron
How the greeks constructed the Dodecahedron. Euclids Elements Book 13, Proposition 17. In geometry, a dodecahedron is any polyhedron with twelve flat faces. The most familiar dodecahedron is the regular dodecahedron with regular pentagons as faces, which is a Platonic solid. A regular dode
