hermanntrude Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 what was the purpose of using sulfuric/H2O2? Why did you set out to make iodoform in this manner? I havent got a clue what you made, but perhaps you shouldn't try again until you know what you're doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitric Posted September 24, 2008 Author Share Posted September 24, 2008 I just figured out what it is,soulution of iodine in water.And sulfufic/h2o2 was the closest acid to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hermanntrude Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 seriously when doing a chemical reaction, grabbing the nearest acid shouldn't be a step you take Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
