How to Memorize the Periodic Table of the Elements

Today, I memorized the first 4 lines of the periodic table in under 45 minutes. Here’s how I did it:

Hydrogen | Helium

Lithium | Beryllium | BCNOF (buckNOF)| Neon

NaM gAl (some Vietnamese girl)| SiPS Chlorine (drinks chlorine)| Argon

KCA ScTiV (KCA an abbreviation like AKC, ScTiV similar to my name)| CroMn (chrome)| FeCoNi (sounds cool)| CuZnGaGe (coozenGAje)| ArsSeBro (arsy brother)| Krypton

RubiStrontY | ZirNioMoly | TechRuthen | RhoPallay | Silver CadmIndi | Tin and Tim | Tellurium Iodide | Xenon

The last line has a story:

A professional wrestler called Rubi StrontY and a Sir, ZirNioMoly’s pipes are broken. They ask for help from a TECHnician, called Ruthen. TechRuthen brings along RhoPallay (Rodeo and Cool-sounding Pallay. Likely someone from the west) and RhoPallay brings his girlfriend Silver CadmIndi.

The last two combinations don’t have stories ’cause they’re easy to memorize.
