He definately shouldn't put his mum on the car. ~Scott

I don't have to listen to these wild alligations , Miss -5 -6 thats right I checked the graph:). Like the new pic, your looking a little pale though maybe you need some more meat in your diet ...joking, heh please dont send your environmentaly firiendly commie army after me ~Scott

Hey i've got an idea why dont you take this to pseudoscience or religion and then read up about how lightning works, take a look at the church and whats around it, and think before you speek. ~Scott

Economic -2.50 Social -2.41 So what does that mean? ~Scott

What I mean by 'becomes a person' is when the foetus has passed the age where it is determined by the law or medical science or whatever it is no longer classified as a foetus but a person. I agree it is a strange situation and difficult to apply morals to. But, i disagree with you in that she has never harmed anyone because the foetus is now a person who has been abused. Oh and by the way it dosen't matter if you think a foetus is not a person until it is born or its three month, four months, or a day, it only has to be up to the time you consider abortion moraly justifiable. Hey thats what I'm going for and by the way I may not necessarily agree that it takes six months for a foetus to become a person it was just an arbitary number I used to help get my point across. Oh as as for this magic moment crap I don't see you trying to apply some ethics to this situation so why don't you do better?

Well thats the personal chioce, when exactly does a foetus become a person? But by applying what i said to any view of how late you can have a abortion it is consistant with pro abortion views. Eg Lets say for arguments sake that abortions are legal for the first six months (I'm not sure of the laws where everybody lives but just used this as an example) Now if the foetus is not considered to be a person until it is six months old then for some people it is moraly justifiable to have an abortion. So if you drink alcohol while the foetus is pre six months your not doing anything wrong until it becomes a person at that time it does become wrong and the mother is at fault for the previous six months of drinking. See by using this way you can oppose drinking at anytime while pregnant and still support abortion up to a certain point of the foetuses developement. So you can have your cake and eat it too. ~Scott

I think its somewhere along the lines of. The foetus should not be exposed to alcohol because while not yet a person, will become one soon, and then the damage is done to a person. But the mother is only at fault for drinking while pregnent after the foetus is classified as a person not before. ~Scott

Just as a bit of a sidetrack you can play a game called bloody mary with a deck of cards. I won't reveal how to play it yet because I want to know if anyone else has heard of it before. ~Scott

Just wait, WTF did I read that before? ~Scott

Breaking bonds of H20 with Heat and Pressure?
BenSon replied to HyFC3S's topic in Inorganic Chemistry
Click here I think its a possibility. ~Scott -
Akcapar H2S is hydrogen sulfide not hydrogen sulfate. I think rthmjohn is asking weather it is possible to have anhydrous H2SO4. Not to my nowledge, once sufuric acid gets to a certain concentration it dosen't iberate as a gas like HNO3 or HCL but it decomposes. H2SO4 = SO3 + H2O. That is why one must be very careful when concetrating sulfuric acid because if you were to breath in the SO3 vapours they would hydrolyse in you throat. This is actually one of the causes of acid rain from sulfur impurities in fossil fuels however the main concern from sulfur oxides and acid rain is not sulfuric acid but sufurous acid H2SO3 wich is formed from the more comon sulfoxide SO2. ~Scott

Breaking bonds of H20 with Heat and Pressure?
BenSon replied to HyFC3S's topic in Inorganic Chemistry
HyFC3S, you don't need 5000 degrees to keep H2 and O2 from reforming. d22k, while you are correct that by keeping the temperature above the point of decomposition will stop it reforming there is more energy efficient ways. If you rapidly cooled the H2 and O2 down past activation energy then you would keep them uncombined and use far less energy in the process. Oh, and yes pressure would only hinder keeping the gases unreacted in fact HyFC3S your best bet would be to keep the pressure low. ~Scott -
For FerroAluminium thermites Iron (III) oxide is used (Fe2O3) I'd bet that Fe2O3 would produce more heat then Fe3O4 ~Scott

What is "The Satanic Verses"? ~Scott

1) So are you suggesting that authorities pay more attention on days when their cities name is the same length as the date (when spelt in any language)? Or on months where the both month and city start with the same letter. What about cities with names that don't have any months with corressponding starting letters like Brisbane or Perth? 2) Apparently this numeric correllation is only found after the event, therefore eliminating any predictive qualities. This reminds me of the sham book the bible code the first one published before 9/11 did not predict it but the second one published after the event did (thus proving the "bible code"). ~Scott

Alright smart guy, I'll take pics too I just found the cable for my camera ~Scott

That was fun smelled bad, but fun, I just realised that I used NaClO not NaClO3 so I don't think i made ClO but just normal Cl2 HCl + NaClO = NaOH + Cl2 Where can I get NaClO3? ~Scott

Why does Solder have a lower melting point than the parent metals

DQW you are an asset. see post 20. ~Scott -
Come on people, lets think of something large scale to do. The key here is I have lots of this stuff and while these demos are cool, they're small. Whats something that is only effective to do with large amounts of acid or much more effective when large amounts are used. ~Scott
-
Woelen, Sounds good I'll do this one tommorrow or tonight if I have time, Any Ideas on something that I could make more large scale? Yt, Crazy? Crazy! like a fox , I don't want to waste it Yt, I just want to use some of it up. Its like money whats the use of having it if you don't spend it. So any Ideas other the store it which I am currently doing and getting no satisfaction. ravio, I will probably end up doing that if I can't find any use for it. El .Bingo it is just filtered car battery acid. ~Scott

I have about 3-4 litres of sulfuric acid of concentration roughly 3.75mol/L, I need to use some of this because its just rediculous to have this much H2SO4. Anyone who has any good ideas on what I can do with this keeping in mind I've covered many of the quick common experiments. So I'm looking for something a bit different I don't have many other chems but can buy easy to get ones, so fire away, and help out a guy who has way to much acid. ~Scott

Ok do you mean that it was filled with a NaCl solution or paper soaked with NaCl because the only "salt bridge" I know of is the latter. And if you are using a paper salt bridge then that is the problem (a salt bridge of this kind is not used in these situations). If you are using a NaCl solution without the paper salt bridge then I would suggest changing the electrolyte to sulfuric acid. ~Scott
-
Ok, I'm a little confused about your "salt bridge" I assume that is the small green thing that joins the two pipes, could you explain what it is exactly. What did you put into the solution to be electrolysed? ~Scott

You can do that sock thing by tapping your foot whith the lit end of a smoke. ~Scott

A catalyst does effect the amount of energy needed for a reaction by lowering the activation energy. ~Scott
