Noah's Ark Of Chemical Bonds

The chemistry teacher's worst nightmare: explaining chemical bonds using Noah's Ark metaphors! The elder figure (presumably Noah) is utterly confused by these molecular matchups.

On the left, polyatomic ions are represented by a tiny elephant—multiple atoms hanging out with a charge, like the cool kids who travel in groups. The penguin labeled "ionic bonding" is basically atoms playing electron tug-of-war (one atom straight-up steals electrons from another). Meanwhile, the larger elephant represents covalent bonding, where atoms actually share their electrons like reasonable molecules instead of being electron thieves.

Chemistry teachers everywhere are nodding in silent appreciation while their students are still trying to figure out why there are elephants and penguins on Noah's Ark in the first place.
