budullewraagh Posted June 20, 2004 Posted June 20, 2004 propylene glycol is CH3CHOHCH2OH it is an alcohol
admiral_ju00 Posted June 20, 2004 Posted June 20, 2004 Does that mean a decrease in arsenic will kill you? Yes, and so is skipping a day or in some cases if it won't kill you outright, it will severely deteriorate your condition so that you will die very very soon afterwards. It has to be taken on a day to day basis(no skippage) and exact same amounts.
AtomicMX Posted June 23, 2004 Author Posted June 23, 2004 :oooo... which is the most silent poison killer you know? (note: colesterol is not an answer )
budullewraagh Posted June 23, 2004 Posted June 23, 2004 definately any isotope of lawrencium. eat that and you're dead before you know what happened. depends on how the death works tho. ie, do you need to be exposed to it? injected? do you need to consume it?
YT2095 Posted June 28, 2004 Posted June 28, 2004 :oooo... which is the most silent poison killer you know? (note: colesterol is not an answer ) probably Ricin.
jgerlica Posted June 29, 2004 Posted June 29, 2004 Good one, plant derived compounds are always a good choice.
budullewraagh Posted June 29, 2004 Posted June 29, 2004 actually, on second thought, i have two: botulinum toxin A (1 million times more toxic than dioxin, the most toxic chemical humans have ever synthesized) also neptunium-234 that stuff releases more energy in gamma rays than anything i've ever heard of. plus, its half-life is 4.4 days
TheMadHatter0 Posted June 30, 2004 Posted June 30, 2004 On a side note, with all these wonderful things being mentioned here, here's something that (hopefully) more than less of you will know about: I don't know about you, but I find it very ironic that doctors are in the regular habbit of perscribing Nitro Glycerine to heart patients. It is in powder form, and I don't think it is, but I wonder actually how explosive the stuff is in that state. -Ian
budullewraagh Posted June 30, 2004 Posted June 30, 2004 it takes very little to set that off. i know that the dynamite form of nitroglycerin produces 270,000 ATM of pressure in 1 millionth of a seond. scary stuff. it's not all that ironic though. the NG yields NO which dialates the blood vessels
budullewraagh Posted June 30, 2004 Posted June 30, 2004 ascanio sobrero discovered this the hard way. you'd think that chemists from the middle ages would have the presence of mind NOT to taste the chemicals they produced; especially if the chemicals were previously unknown to man

So Alfred Nobel just took that stuff that was already known about and made it into the solid, dynamite form? And I was aware that it opened up blood vessels, but I didn't know that it was because it yielded NO. Now is NO Nitrous Oxide, or is it N2O2, or is N2O2 really a compound (or is it just called a molecle? Sorry for butchering all these terms... It's been a while since I've been in a Chemistry class. -Ian

So Alfred Nobel just took that stuff that was already known about and made it into the solid, dynamite form? yeah, after so many countries banned it due to random explosions in factories and in shipping (mostly due to neglegence considering one fool greased the axles of his cart with NG) nobel tried to figure out a way to make NG more stable but still just as explosive. he found that kieselguhr and ng formed a plastic putty-like substance. that is dynamite. Now is NO Nitrous Oxide, or is it N2O2, or is N2O2 really a compound (or is it just called a molecle? Sorry for butchering all these terms... It's been a while since I've been in a Chemistry class. NO is nitric oxide. N2O is nitrous oxide. N2O2 isn't at all stable, but i suppose it can exist since O does have the oxidation state of -2 and N can also have a +2. however, it is not likely that you'll ever see or hear of N2O2.
