H2SO4

i got 47 gmail invites. I was thinking maybe tomorow ill put a thread up "the first 5 responders get a gmail acount.". Look for it tomorow. I dont know what to do with all these invites, so look for that thread. Itll be like ebay but without money being involved. I will start this tomorow in the morning (probaly 12:00 clock). I live in california, just to let you know the time zone or watever. Look for this thread in general discussion. I post more of these threads if there fun.

i dont know, but i know if you ad vitamin C (ascorbic acid) to iodine it looses color also. I guess oyu could use it to see how much vitamin c is in stuff.

the main thing is expierence in chemistry, you learn so much from demonstrations, id start with books and get yourself a good supply of basic chemicals: unitednuclear.com

If i needed I2 i would probaly bid on this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=413&item=6173989975&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW

unitednuclear.com stocks it reagent grade but just expensive. Id try ebay

I highly doubt that.

you can oxidize tons of stuff with KMnO4

Ive never heard of any plastic conduction electricity. MAybe plastic that has alot of metal powder mixed in with it.

Ya, thats where i buy my KMnO4. Ive never heard of it being sold on pyro sites, partly becasue its is to unstable and reactive for use in pyrotechnics. However, this is what got me into pyrotechnics, and now ive moved on considerably to serious pyrotechnics. Just curious, but why do you need KMnO4?

nice

ammonium chloride sublimates?

id go with the KNO3 one. I have also seen many that are just simply black powder with the ingredients altered somewhat to produce a dense, white smoke. you can probaly get it here: http://www.wfvisser.dds.nl/compoDB.html This webpage is the best for compositions.

xoftspy tried to delete them but said unsuccessful, but went to quarentine, so i deleted the quarentine, and on the next boot xoftspy didnt pick it up. Cool. But ya, adaware sucks. I had gotten infected by adware and spyware once, and i couldnt get it out, went into registry, did everything for a week and in the end had to reinstall windows.

My dad just got a cingular family plan to my dismay. At least i got a phone, but ive always hated cingular. I went to their website to check my minutes used, and that night i ran xoftspy v. 4.12 and it found a trojan/cws combo and one process. I deleted both. I suspected it was cingular so i went back to see if it was cingular and i got the trojan again, and now im infected with the same trojan, and two running processes and i cant delete them. I ran norton, and adaware and they found nothing. Only xoftspy pics it up. The file path for this is C:\WINDOWS\system32\dla\tfswctrl.exe I went to the file and found a bunch of files that started with tfs and went on to be something else. I cant find this trojan. Im usualy realy good at finding and destroying adware and viruses. if you know anything, tell me. It just realy pisses me off that they infected my computer.

ya, but ive just called it silicon dioxide for so long its like engrained in my brain (if thatg makes any sense).

man do i suck at organic chemistry

for charles law you can put alittle water in a soda can, bring it to a slight boil, then with tongs quickly upturn it and put it facing down in a bucket of water. The gassses inside will rapidy cool and cause the can to crush instantly as soon as it hits the water. Very dramatic demo.

I know alot of compounds can make you pass out fairley quick, bt whats the most popular one. I got in this big argument on another forum thats wasnt even science related. He said it was chloroform. what is the molecular formual. What is it? I said it was ethyle that was most popularly used for this application. I dont know what either of these are, but i got in a argument and i knew this guy had no idea whats going on anyway.

Plaster of paris isnt just calcium sulfate. Its a mix of calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate, and "crystaline silica". refresh my mind, wats "silica" i know its a silicon compound though. is it just silicon dioxide?

i have no clue. I mixed copper sulfate and ammonia before and it makes a blue gellish mass also. I have no clue. Kinda wierd.

I fiquered this was my network speed to. TO bad task mangaer doesnt give a graph showing your internet conection (in real time). on an online test i have a connection speed of 3684 (somewhere around there) kbps upstream.

you could tr y titration. Heres a link to a page that shows procedure. Ive never performed titration but iv read about it in books. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titration

i found this one to, it gave similar results http://tech.msn.com/downloads/speedtest.armx

I was wondering how exactlyu you check you connection speed. I have comcast high speed cable, and when i go into network connections it says among abunch of other things "speed: 10 Mbps) i find this realy fast. I thought comcast had an upstream of 4mbps.
