Abstract: In this activity, we describe how the TV show The Simpsons provides a nice opportunity for students to think about chemistry. The character’s name in the show is a good opportunity to help students memorize the elements from the periodic table. A list of the 118 existing elements associated with a character from the series is proposed to establish connection between chemistry and the Simpsons series.
