Johnny was a chemists son. But Johnny is no more. What Johnny thought was H20, Was H2S04.

The one I remember from school was phrased slightly differently (but same concept) :
Poor little Jimmy is lying on the floor, for what he thought was H2O was H2SO4

Two chemists enter a bar. One orders a glass of H2O. The other chemist says I’ll have a glass of H2O too. He bleached his throat and died.

distilled water, lab grade ethanol, a couple drops of limonene, and there you go

Sadly the Erlenmeyer flask was previously used for some nasty water soluble compounds and just looks clean.

rinse -> acetic acid -> rinse -> Acqua regia-> Rinse -> Pirahna solution -> Rinse -> 500°C oven -> Rinse
I would then drink from it without even worrying
XOXOX@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Don’t forget the phase-change cooling from the addition of solid state H20.

lab grade ethanol
That’s usually methylated spirit. It probably won’t kill you, but you’ll lose your vision.
isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 2 weeks ago
methylated spirits are the ones used for cleaning, lab grade ethanol needs to be just ethanol or some reactions might fail, however in some badly managed labs you might find mislabeled stuff and have contaminants
still, you shouldn’t drink it anyways, as some producers use the highly carcinogenic benzene to make pure 100% ethanol, as distillation with water can only get you up to the 95,6% azeotrope, and some benzene might make it’s way in the product

I remember reading about a chemistry teacher found dead one morning. he had a habit of consuming the laboratory’s ethanol after hours, and the night before had accidentally poured himself a glass of methanol

Have we communally decided where the proper line should be drawn between lifestyle acceptance, and calling out stereotypes in media? I get what you’re insinuating, but some women do actually seem to enjoy wearing earrings. You could just as notably call out the fact that she has long hair.
4oreman@lemy.lol 2 weeks ago
Some women also commit suicide by drinking lethal chemicals, but that doesn’t mean this picture makes sense.

Even if i was modeling I don’t think I could do this.

What’s wrong with a little piss chug every here and there? Asking for a friend.
ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 2 weeks ago
Nothing as long as it’s not out of a beaker :)
explodicle@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
I’ve done this. Chemistry equipment is good for bongs too.
stoicmaverick@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
I themed the wet bar in my basement as a laboratory. There’s a drying rack on the wall that I use to store 15 mL beakers that I use a shot glasses. It’s fun. I’ve also found that a hot plate stirer with a thermometer probe and a vacuum filtration setup makes the best clarified butter easy as a snap!

Are you even sciencing if you don’t drink some piss you found in a beaker somewhere?
QuantumSparkles@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
Observation: this looks like piss Question: is this piss? Hypothesis: this is probably piss Experiment: drink the piss Analysis: tastes like piss Conclusion: it’s piss
fossilesque@mander.xyz 2 weeks ago
Sometimes it be like that.
isolatedscotch@discuss.tchncs.de 2 weeks ago
could also check for urea content, or proteins, but sure why not drink it

Inconclusive: the data is also a perfect fit for domestic American light beer.
idunnololz@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
How do you know it tastes like piss if you’ve never tasted piss before?
Better piss in a cup and taste it to make sure we get a nice baseline.

This is probably worse than piss.

Worse health-wise, but probably not worse in how disgusting one would think it is to drink.

Well, you could say beer is yeast piss.
I’ll have another (lab brewed yeast piss. From malted grain. Sometimes with hops)
