Btw,I wonder why the sodium 'bullets' didn't explode in the airgun(even though its partly coated with wax),you must be lucky.....

why should they explode in the airgun? the only reason the wax was on them was so that we could make loads of them to take out with us later. we didn`t want them to oxidise, and that`s all that happens :)

 

when they come out of the gun, they don`t have much time to oxidise before hitting the target (a fraction of a second). the only reason they explode in the lemon is because lemon juice is acidic, and sodium + acid = BANG (and sodium Citrate in this case).

 

also Napalm contains Palmitic Acid, the polystyrene and petrol are only 2 of the ingredients in Naplam :)

"Would an alchemist in the middle ages know about haemoglobin? I doubt it."

 

Although alchemists knew quite a bit back then (just not too much details), I must agree that they probably didn't know about haemoglobin, no matter how skilled and wise. When was it discovered anyway?

YT, those are the only two ingredients on totse. lol. i think it also tells the reader to freeze the mixture for a time before use. dont quote me though, totse has a lot of stupid stuff on it.
