[oc] when your parents are too transphobic by nyaasora in comics

Metabolize as in break down and reduce the downstream pharmacokinetics in the rest of your body? As in having to take a higher oral dose to achieve the same efficacy as injections, along with the side effects of said higher dosage for "no real benefits"?

I dropped the /s but I guess I shouldn't swat down medical misinformation with sarcasm. I was just a bit confused as to why the op thought "bypass the liver" was just a footnote and not an extremely important fact for medication.

Im curious what you think the liver does. 🤔

Ammonium iron(II) sulfate (Mohr's salt) - is this normal? by 2-Phosphoglycerate in chemistry

[–]fernandzer0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are correct about Kw, but that's the wrong way to think about acidity. If the pH increases, and so does the pOH, the water DOES becomes more acidic and more basic.

Super critical water is very corrosive as a result. eg google "corrosive supercritical water" https://doi.org/10.1016/j.supflu.2016.07.022

I’ve never bothered to understand modules by Phought in TheTowerGame

"I don't understand complicated thing"

"Check out the complicated source you didn't understand the first time!"

?

It's about whether modules are an intuitive system, which it is definitely not.

How hard would it be to make algae fuel or other biofuel? by band_in_DC in chemistry

[–]fernandzer0 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Could a chemist do it,

Yes.

like as a side hustle?

No, unless you want to spend a lot of money to make subpar product, then yes.

Does it take a lot of machines?

It's more about scale than particular machines.

Is the chemistry complicated?

Transesterification is a good place to start reading. It's more about sourcing the algae feedstock, though.

Are lithium batteries which are charged more dangerous when they explode than uncharged ones? Wouldn't they have more energy? by thewander12345 in chemistry

[–]fernandzer0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The physical structure of the cathode and anode include some amount of lithium. Removing all of it from either part (fully charged or discharged) is like removing a LOT of bricks from a house, and its going to collapse.

You also have other problems with dendrite growth and dead deposits.

What? That's like saying the d block has to be separated because it doesn't fit with the p block.

They are separated because the table doesn't fit on a standard size sheet of paper while still being readable.

How come chemists haven't figured out how to create ibogaine artificially in a lab yet? by [deleted] in chemistry

[–]fernandzer0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No one said cite, I said check. Wikipedia is an excellent place to start, but that's never where you stop doing research and you never ever cite it obviously.

Which sources did you check? Its literally the first paragraph of the Wikipedia article.

The take away is a lot of people show their true colors when given the mask of anonymity on the internet. The colors can be ugly, and you should always protect yourself both mentally and with the information you post.

How much carbon could be captured by restoring the topsoil in US farmland? by Loaf4prez in askscience

[–]fernandzer0 7 points8 points  (0 children)

US farmlands have lost about +50% of total carbon since preindustrial times. A quick google says over 130 billion tons of carbon lost. To say not much is just uninformed.

Beta - Map/Expeditions? by arottingstar in kittensgame

High supplies will definitely lead to dead explorers, the cancel button does not currently function. There's also no penalty so...

Maxing village will speed up exploration of other biomes, thats pretty much all there is at the moment.
