I fucking hate my local government. - Eschatos - 04-29-2009
This morning I walk into my AP Chemistry class, and my chemistry teacher tells us that the school board sent someone to take away a lot of his chemicals. Everything that explodes or burns easily, like Potassium and Sodium. Why? Because students might sneak into the teacher's office and steal the chemicals, and then hurt themselves somehow. Some moron gets to tell this to a teacher with a P.H.D. in chemistry, and there's nothing he can do about it other than get fired. How the fuck are we supposed to learn chemistry without doing it? It's fucking stupid. On a happier note, we've decided to rebel by making thermite at the end of the year with the chemicals he does have left.Â

Or Canada, but he was postin' 'bout people taking away dangerous chemicals from his chem class because some retard ate too much potassium.

Nope, nothing dangerous has happened at this school or been mentioned at all in the local news.Â

I know, but it's safe to assume someone stuck salt in their eyes or something now everything that isn't covered in Styrofoam has to go.

wouldnt it be better just to secure the shit more?
or like, let the retards eat magnesium and speed up evoloution a bit?

It's florida. They probably teach intelligent design.

There actually was a group who tried to get that passed a few months ago.

I had a pyro friend in HS that would steal stuff like that from chemistry lab all the time. Â He never hurt anyone though. Â It was educational.

Thermite is awesome stuff, and also self-sustaining, so it burns underwater iirc

It does, I think it actually generates enough energy to split water. I remember someone telling me about a fire at what I believe was a place where they made thermite and putting water on it made it worse so they just set up a burn perimeter and waited it out.

Right idea, wrong reason, it generates its own oxygen, thus is able to "burn" underwater

Yea, that I am thinking about it rust has oxygen. I think it's byproducts are iron slag and something else. But I do think water doesn't work on putting out a thermite fire either for the reason I stated or another. Too lazy to google now.

[/quote]The chemical reaction resulting from the mix of chemicals commonly referred to as thermite is a reaction between iron (ii,iii) oxide (black as opposed to red iron (iii) oxide aka rust) and powdered aluminum, the byproducts are molten iron and aluminum oxide. It doesn't require an external source of oxygen because its actually just a reduction reaction (the oxygen is moving to a lower energy state by binding to the aluminum), and generates energy fast enough that it boils water near it faster than the water can conduct away the heat, so once started it remains self-sustaining underwater (or conceivably in any oxygen-free environment) until it runs out of fuel. Its pretty fun stuff.

Make a flamethrower too. Most states have no legislation concerning them.

As long as this chemistry talk doesnt involve tons of stoichiometry..I'm cool. I swear my high school chem class was harder than the college one.

What's wrong with stoichiometry?
Let's see... I have 3 Oxygens here... I wonder how much there'll be in the end!
I bet you didn't have fission nor fusion, eh? Different story, then... Balancing masses that don't balance is definetly harder.
That said, it does suck, Eschy.
But is there any chemical product (or, hell, anything) that isn't dangerous when missused?
It's not like there should be enough potassium to set the whole school on fire anyways. I mean, if the reason is that some students can use them to harm others, they should ban everything, including everyone's fists, right?

Yea, easy right? But when you have shit tons of conversions to do it makes you want to just vomit on the page. Especially when you throw gasses and byproducts in the mix. It makes me want to go back in time just to piss all over Avogadro. Fuck moles.
