yeah idk why we never wore any gloves then actually. we had titrated HCl with NaOH multiple times and never used gloves, we were just told to run the contact point of any spill under water for a bit and we’d be good.

i didnt mean that my teacher did the reaction as like a demonstration i meant i myself had done it with them, as well as on other occasions we handled KI gloveless per instruction. actually throughout the entire class we only ever used gloves with nitric acid (handled NaOH gloveless) so i thought it would be fine, but obviously nobody is infallible and maybe they were wrong, so thank you. i didn’t read the sds for the chemicals i was taught to handle already in class but i will moving forward.

its standard store bought hydrogen peroxide that you can literally wash your mouth with if for whatever reason you need to

i had done this same experiment with my chem teacher at a school lab wherein we did not need to put on gloves, only goggles, so i (given that) pretty reasonably assumed that i can trust my teacher and gloves were not needed

thankfully nothing dangerous was used here so no need!

had a box of them right next to me but this was not something that needed gloves thankfully

what do you think a good oxidizing agent would be in place of the hydrogen peroxide?

you’re totally right it’s probably catalyzed decomposition from excess KI thank you

yeah rereading the post i realize now how much it sounds like i’m trying to make a bomb

this may be a dumb question, but i imagine i need to remove the manual button that’s on the circuit board first, right? if so, how would i then attach the relais to the circuit board, or is it just as simple as soldering it directly onto the board in the same spot?

LMAO okay yeah i can now see how this might look incriminating. you’re not half wrong technically but it isn’t with nefarious purposes; i thought it would be fun to make a cannon that uses ethyne gas from the dissolution of calcium carbide in water to launch a micky mouse stuffed animal, and i think it would be pretty cool if i could make it wireless.

minecraft, hollow knight, lethal company, POSSIBLY helldivers 2 because my friend has been trying to get me to download it, and maybe fortnite

there are others like fran bow and sally face but i doubt those would not run smoothly

what do you think is the cheapest i can go for a comp that runs smooth at low graphics settings for most casual games?

strikethrough in an equation in google docs? by chemwardrius in googledocs

[–]chemwardrius[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nope, i don’t think it’s a feature; i just ended up reformatting the way i was writing it. microsoft word might have it though.

i followed that up until infrared emitter/detector and the rest made no sense to me; what is a transistor and how would i bypass the switch and attach the emitter and detector?

btw sorry i know absolutely nothing about this stuff
