How do you keep a chemistry class's attention in the age of smart phones? Explosions, loud noises and passion! That's how Kate the Chemist does it. Dr. Kate Biberdorf is a professor of chemistry at the University of Texas and she's a science entertainer. She amazed Stephen Colbert with the elephant's toothpaste experiment on Late Night, and blasted a thousand ping pong balls into the air on the Kelly Clarkson Show.
She took a break from exploding hydrogen balloons and breathing fire to have an awesome chat with us about her STEM army, firing up kids' imaginations with science and exploding a few myths about women in STEM. Her new book It's Elemental reveals the hidden science in everyday life.
