nitric

you can use a electric stove to melt the bismuth you know

if theres one thing i should point out would be DON'T EAT IT!!!!never eat anything that you don't know the composition of.If you can post a post a picture of it, that could help us.

what is the title of this book

cold fingers are used mainly for sublimations not distillations, you should go with a long tube from one flask or test tube to another, dont try cold finger unless your purifying iodine or high temp distills(sulfur/sodium) which are not common for home chemists to do(at least sulfur and sodium) this is a good article on cold fingers: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_finger

well i'm know that this is probably bogus but i think we should try this out if anyone hasn't, because the absorbtion from those water polymer would make them irregularly shaped like sodium polyacrilate

i guess I've pretty set on my ambitions and still have to wait to see if i get hit by a train or not but here it goes: 1-5:superman 6-8:scientist(didn't make up my mind what field of science though) 9:electrition/computer engineer 10-11:material chemist

let me put it this way to simplify everything, science can solve all problems with the proper information, just because we don't have the info at the moment doesn't mean science cant solve it, like if you had to find a buried ball in a 100 M^2 field without a map, with the map you can easily find the ball but without it your not going to get anywhere.

yes it would be NCIS instead, no public CSI unit would have access to technology such as that, theoretically (Scientific America) it is possible to get 1/8 meter to 1/20 of a meter

a bit but it gives a good average

looks good, what you going to try distilling first

i like it so far, as with most new browsers it needs inprovment, in a bit im going to try some AS 3.0 on it, will post results as far as i see all the material i made with ActionScript 3.0 work in google Chrome perfectly

i think this has been dead for a while 11/M/U.S.A

is that calories or celsius, because ive never heard of a 1000*C saftey flame, least bunsen burner flame http://www.mr-damon.com/experiments/bunsen/index.htm it says that the roaring blue flame is 700*C

The experiment ive done to show that was were you put some NaHSO4+NaHCO4 [CO2 source] and after awhile put in a short strip of burning Mg, theres usually a small pop and some carbon left on the inside of the test tube, if you managed to get Ga to burn same would most likely happen

well, i can think off the top of my head that they would be trying to dissolve iridium, any way i would not want to even encounter almost pure nitrosyl chloride

in the guide i have(CRC Handbook of chemistry and physics) galium is a high toxic hazard ,which contradicts what ive heard, its one of the lesser stuied metal based on toxicity research(like the lantanides)

im not stating that, but to keep on track i would recomend that you go with the high heat dehydration, seems cleaner and more reliable, but it would require most likely a tube furnace(not so sure though), bunsen burner i think only reaches up to about 675*C

like the dehydration of sugar, but if he cant find a good heating source, second easiest way

thats the least reliable way ive ever heard, also still is dangerous

easier, in theory, just dehydrate glaceil acetic acid with concentrated H2SO4

hydrobromic acid is made using phosphoric acid and sodium bromide, i hope you know that HBr is some pretty nasty stuff in its gas form,and really, you can get HCl at home depot and lowes, so why do you need it

you can get it at any reliable chemical suplier. also i would add to the nitric acid and copper coin analogy, with that its mainly toxicity, while this is more of a explostion that would happen, sorry about the safety of the method. also its not reliable for making any NaBr

you could do it the hard way, Na+Br-->NaBr,or you could do as i said, 2NaI+Br2--->NaBr+I2

no it wouldnt because chlorine is more reactive than bromine, nothing would happen. this would only work with sodium iodide and bromine,

that would be safer but it would be quite difucult to find a resonable amount of gallium for a resonable price
