Meet the Chemiballs: Exposition and Cute Drawings of the Nonmetals
I love balls. Especially Countryballs, aka Polandball, a popular meme format where countries are embodied in this particular art style. Like Hetalia but for not-weebs. I mean, just look at r/countryball. These little blobs are so cute.
Lots of other "ball communities" have spawned from Countryballs, such as Ideologyballs, Planetballs, and LGBallT. One of the little-known ones is Chemiballs. At first, I thought I was the first one to have the idea as I doodled them in my notebook during chemistry class, but no. Someone beat me to it just a couple of years before me. (hecking go check out the subreddit it's a great small community https://www.reddit.com/r/chemiball/)
Anyways here's some nonmetal balls I drew a couple years ago, AREN'T THEY CUTE??






here's an old edutainment blog page I wrote about the these elements if you're interested
How To Understand Resonance Structures using Cute Balls
There comes a time in every man’s (or woman/nonbinary/other/etc)'s life that they have to learn about resonance structures and delocalized electrons.
Or probably not. I don’t think most people know what it is. But you’re going to!
Right now.
No, you don’t have a choice in the matter.

![Pentadienyl cation with some very insecure carboCATionballs
(positively charged atoms/molecules are called CATions. Carbonball REALLY doesn't like being a +1 cation, but can tolerate being one third of a furry.[veru scientific{physics isn't voodoo, no siree}])](https://64.media.tumblr.com/6435aa88dc4bbbdbba289ebaa924bbeb/1d39ed985ba14fc1-08/s500x750/7cfb61082c131c829ca0c1351535b31997c34e10.png)

Get all that? Understand now? Of course not, no one does. READ THIS!
