Cora woke to find her lover

dead on the floor

a putrid yellow brown sludge

weeping from his mouth

into the carpet

And she loved him so but

when his body was gone

she cleaned the floor

she scrubbed the carpet on her hands and knees

with hot water

and caustic soda

and salt and lemon and vinegar

and bleach and rosewater and beer

and a powder soap and borax and rubbing alcohol and witch hazel

and she shook violently and tears steamed down her red cheeks

and the smell came out of the carpet

but lingered in the hairs and wet skin in her nose

and penetrated the mucus membrane

and she scrubbed and her knees burned up and her hands chapped and blistered

and wept and bled into the carpet

and the witch hazel and rubbing alcohol and borax and powder soap and beer and rosewater and bleach and vinegar and lemon and salt and caustic soda and hot water mixed with her blood

and her body was removed after the downstairs neighbor

saw a putrid yellow brown stain

begin to appear

on his cieling

in her image

Not to brag, but I think I recognized the ones shown in that video, and I can teach you a few fun colour-changing reactions to make at home that might get similar results as those. Hit the "read more" for how to make a dramatic transparent-to-blue transformation, vampire paper (bonus: it's the cheapest way to make a stage colour change resulting in bright red), cabbage rainbow (budget way to produce a lot of dramactic colour changes and as a bonus, it will even smell like an actual chemistry lab), styrofoam-eating liquid, magic water that turns and unturns blue on command, and that sweet glowing potion effect with budget options.

(I'm a highschool Chemistry teacher with a flair for the dramactic, but NO school budget for chemicals. Oh, and I know what I'm talking about, so take the safety protocols seriously when I mention them.)

First and easiest experiment:

- A few drops of iodine tincture (usually sold in pharmacies to disinfect wounds)

- Anything with flour or cornstarch in it

Iodine react with starch forming a deep blue complex with has strong colour even at low concentrations. To get something beautiful like the shots above, throw cornstarch in some water and cook it for a few minutes, mixing it al the time, until the solution is crystal clear. This goes in one flask. Then, dilute as much iodine tincture as you want (the more, the darker the blue) in another flask (you can use water or alcohol, depending on the effect you want, I'll explain). Boom, transparent/slightly yellowish liquids that produce a stark blue when mixed.

Bonus: this experiment's name I didn't disclose? Vanishing Ink. Basically, if you dilute the starch as little as possible (put starch in the water while cooking until it doesn't dissolve anymore, then filter that extra powder out) and don't dilute the iodine tincture (or dilute it in alcohol, as high percentage as possible), you will form a mix almost the colour of blue pen ink. BUT, as the tincture evaporates (iodine is a gas at room temperature, and the alcohol evaporates easily), the "ink" loses it's colour. It may take days (or even weeks, depending on lots of factors), but it will vanish. Alternatively, you can draw on paper with the transparent starch solution and brush it with the tincture to "reveal" the invisible writing.

SAFETY WARNING: Since the iodine tincture is usually diluted on alcohol, don't mess with it until after you cooked the starch solution and is not using fire anymore.

Experiment 2: The vampire paper

- Any amount of saffron powder (get at the supermarket or grocery store)

- Ammonia solution (usually sold in cosmetics stores or pharmacies for when you want to bleach your leg/arm hair)

For a "mad scientist" performance, just throw the saffron in one flask with water and mix vigorously and the ammonia solution in a test tube. The ammonia turns the saffron liquid from yelow to bright red. Don't take too long to use the effect, though, because saffron doesn't dissolve well in water and will deposit at the bottom of the flask with time.

You can use other alkaline solutions for the yellow-to-red change, like sodium bicarbonate or sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), but ammonia is what allows for the "vampire paper" effect: dissolve the saffron in as little water as possible and use it to paint a sheet of paper. Let it dry as much as you can. Then, soak the palm of your hand in ammonia and slam it on the saffron paper. It will leave a blood-red wet print on it (some drops might even look like blood spatter if you get it right). But here's the coolest part: as the ammonia evaporates (it goes as fast or even faster than alcohol, if concentrated), the hand print will disappear, as if the paper drew your blood and is now absorbing it.

The more concentrated your ammonia solution is, the quicker it evaporates. That ammonia for bleaching hair is on the weaker side, so it can take a long while, but getting a more concentrated solution for demonstrations in a chemicals shop shouldn't be that hard. For maximum effect, make sure it's a NH3/NH4OH ammonia solution and not an ammonia salt solution (those salts eventually break down into NH3 in water and evaporate, but it takes much longer).

SAFETY WARNINGS: (1) Ammonia has a strong odour and might cause you nausea and headaches. Don't mess with it in spaces without plenty of ventilation. (2) Sodium bicarbonate and caustic soda don't evaporate from the paper (just the water they are in), so don't use them on the vampire paper experiment. Also, and I shouldn't have to say it, don't soak the palms of your hand in caustic soda.

Experiment 3: Rainbow cabbage

- A couple leaves of red/purple cabbage (the stronger the colour, the better)

- A glass of water or so for starting (you might need a little more later)

- An assortment of liquids of different pHs. I suggest floor cleaning products with muriatic/chloridric acid (read the ingredients, brands vary), vinegar or lime juice, sodium bicarbonate solution, ammonia and caustic soda, but you might test whatever you have on hand and choose your favourites

Throw the cabbage leaves and the water on a blender and turn it into a cabbage paste. Plop that paste into a sieve and use a spoon to "milk" the purple water out of it into a glass or bowl. You might add a little water into the paste if you can't extract any liquid. Use as little water as possible because cabbage juice smells rancid when boiled and, if your liquid's colour is too faint, you will have to boil that sucker to reduce it's volume.

Repeat this step until you have as much liquid as you want. I usually blend one cabbage in five-leaves instances to fill a two liter coke bottle, but I don't mind the liquid being a little faint as long as the colours are visible at "back-seats-of-a-classroom" range. If you want darker, richer colours, then you'll need the boil.

Now that you have your purple liquid, you can generate a rainbow worth of colours by mixing it with liquids in different pH ranges. Acid liquids will turn the purple into pink (vinegar, dilluted lime juice) and eventually red (muriatic acid, maybe concentrated lime juice, depending on the variety of lime). Alkaline liquids will turn the purple into light blue (sodium bicarbonate), then green (ammonia), then yellow (caustic soda). The hue is all concentration-dependent, so you might have to mess a bit with different liquids until you get the right colour.

SAFETY WARNING: Cabbage juice is SUPER low shelf life. It'll turn into a stink bomb in just a few days and it will keep releasing a lot of sulfur gas, so it might explode the container you put it into if you forget it sealed for too long (but even if it doesn't explode, just know that when I discarded a month old cabbage juice I had forgotten about, every single neighbour in my apartment building thought I had a burst sewage pipe).

BONUS EXPERIMENT: The substance in red cabbage is very similar to the one in red wine. Meaning that you can soak a rag in an alkaline liquid, like a sodium bicarbonate solution or a very diluted caustic soda solution, and FREAK PEOPLE OUT by spilling wine in it.

Experiment 4: Deflating styrofoam

Styrofoam is made by really small plastic pellets being heated and inflated, like tons of really small sticky air balloons being inflated together and sticking to each other. When it cools down, you have the little pellets bound at any shape you want (but not so bound that you can't pick them appart if you crush the styrofoam thing).

It's INCREDIBLY COOL when you throw a styrofoam piece in the proper solvent, because it kinda disappears almost immediately as you "burst" the little "balloons". On stage, it's pure witchcraft.

To that effect, the solvent you need is acetone, but it's hard to come by concentrated acetone nowadays, for the fastest melting effect. The not-so-impressive-but-still-cool alternative is to add turpentine (a type of paint remover) to nail polisher remover (1 to 1) and mix it for a little while. You then let that mixture rest a bit until it has two layers, like water that you added oil over (if the nail polisher had a dye in it, it might have migrated all to the bottom layer, leaving the upper one all transparent, it's cool to watch). The top layer will have just the acetone and the turpentine, so you can use it to "eat" the styrofoam. Just don't take too long, acetone evaporates quicker than alcohol.

Bonus: all the little plastic pellets of styrofoam will melt into a small mass that feels like chewed bubblegum. You can mold it and let it dry for a few days and you will have a small plastic figurine at the end. It's not a good resin substitute because you will notice that there's VERY little plastic in styrofoam, and the plastic won't have a shiny smooth surface after drying, but it's a fun activity to do with students.

SAFETY WARNING: Turpentine and acetone have a strong smell and can cause nausea and irritation to the touch. Prefearably use gloves when handling them and make sure to do it in a properly ventilated room.

Experiment 5: Magic Blue

It's the hardest one simply because one of the ingredients isn't always easy to come by and you have to follow the measures well, but it is really cool.

- 360 mL water

- 7 g caustic soda

- 12 g glucose (usually found on gym supplement aisles/stores, might be under the name "dextrose" - you might try to use glucose syrup, but it might mess a bit with the effect by adding another colour to the mix, and you will need to add more than 12 grams)

- about 20 drops of methylene blue 1% (usually found in pharmacies as a wound disinfectant)

This amount will be enough for a water bottle worth of the experiment. Scale up or down as needed.

Start by putting the water on a heat resistant container and then adding the caustic soda. Mix it with a spoon (don't use a disposable one).

SAFETY WARNING: Be careful because the water will heat up a lot as the caustic soda dissolves. If your caustic soda is powdered, you might consider adding it little by little. Don't use any container that soften/melts in boiling water, don't hold the container while adding and mixing the caustic soda and make sure that the mixing container won't tip and spill caustic soda water all over you.

When the mix cools down (and only then), add the glucose, mix until dissolved and then drop the methylene blue in. Mix a bit more and the blue should vanish instantly. Put the resulting liquid in a closed container (might be the water bottle I mentioned, or a closed flask for theaters). It's VITAL that the liquid doesn't occupy all of the container. Ideally, you should only fill about half of it.

SAFETY WARNING: clean the exterior very well as to remove all traces of caustic soda and seal the lid firmly, ideally passing at least a loop of duct tape to prevent spilling. If you touch the caustic soda, wash it with lots of running water. The "oily" feeling you will have as you rub the affected fingers together is the soda turning your skin fat into soap, so clean it as soon as possible.

Now that you have your closed bottle/flask, shake it. Like, vigorously shake it not just stirr it a little like a coward.

It should turn blue. But that's not the coolest part. After shaking, let it rest for a few moments and the blue will disappear.

As you might have suspected, adding oxygen to the mix cause a reaction that temporarily lets you see the methylene blue, then it comes back to the state it previously was.

This turning blue moment consumes glucose, so the bottle will stop working after a while (even if left alone, so you have to prepare it fresh when it's time to use it). Just putting more glucose into the mix never really worked for me, so it's best to start all over again. When it was Magic Blue Week on the school lab, I would leave the caustic soda already dissolved in a big jar and the glucose already weighted in little packets, so I just had to add it all in directly into the bottle, seal it and shake it to have it ready for the next class.

SAFETY WARNING: Discard the final liquid (it'll probably be a gross mix of brown and blue) into a toilet while it's flushing. It should dissolve the caustic soda enough to not harm your pipes and the flowing water should keep the methylene blue from reaching and staining your porcelain (it doesn't usually stain, but you won't want to be the unlucky winner of the Smurf Toilet Award).

Experiment 6: Eery glowing potion effect

Last, but not least, if you want that cool glowing effect as you mix the liquids, just add detergent/powdered laundry soap/washing machine soap to the water and turn on a black light lamp pointing directly to the flask. If you don't want a blue glow, just pick the charge rod of a fluorescent marker and let its ink dissolve in a glass of water (or alcohol, depending on the marker). I particularly like those neon yellow, green or orange markers for highlighting text, but the pink one isn't bad. The blue one hardly ever work. For other colours, mix and test markers, in the spirit of a good chemist. X3

SAFETY WARNING: You don't have to dissolve the marker's ink first to test if it will glow well. Shine the black light into its tip and you will see if it glows and how much it glows. If you want to mix colours, you can trace one colour on paper, trace the other above it and then shine the black light on it until you are satisfied.

This counts as a safety warning because, if you aren't the person who buys the markers with your own money, ruining some perfectly good ones for an effect that won't even happen MIGHT result in some damage to your relationship.

If you feel brave enough to intentionally cause some damage in that relationships, though, the neon yellow highlight marker blend almost perfectly with any skin browner than snow white, and it shines BRIGHTLY when you hit it with the black light, even in sunny environments. Make of that what you will. I will NOT take responsibility for any mayhem you might cause with that knowledge.

Happy Halloween, mad scientists!

This is SO COOL

Understanding the Chemistry of Sodium Hydroxide Pellets

Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or lye or caustic soda is a strong alkali chemical which is available in different forms such as flakes, powder, and pellets. Sodium hydroxide pellets are small, identical in size, solid grains producing a specific shape to make the alkali chemical easier to handle and safer to use.

Key Properties of Sodium Hydroxide Pellets:

High Solubility: This substance dissolves easily in water and the process generates heat or is exothermic in nature.

Strong Alkalinity: Has pH of about 14 and thus useful in reacting with acids.

Non-volatile: It is stable at room temperatures, and the pH of the solid is different from that of the liquid products, although it contains no detectable fumes.

Hygroscopic Nature: Especially prefers and needs proper storage as it absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from the air.

The Chemistry behind Sodium Hydroxide Pellets

Sodium hydroxide consists of sodium metal Na, oxygen atom O and hydrogen atom H. Because of its strong base property, its molecular formula is NaOH that contains one sodium ion Na⁺ and one hydroxide ion OH⁻.

Production Process:

Sodium hydroxide pellets are manufactured using primarily the chlor- alkali process which is the electrolysis of sodium chloride (NaCl) solution. Here's an overview:

Electrolysis: Electrolytic of Sodium chloride is to obtain chlorine gas hydrogen gas and sodium hydroxide solution.

Concentration: The sodium hydroxide formed on reduction of the sodium amalgam is in a solution form and is concentrated by evaporation.

Pelletizing: The concentrated solution is then cooled and then frozen into pellets forms that are uniform in size.

Safety Measures for Handling Sodium Hydroxide Pellets

Sodium hydroxide pellets are quite beneficial; nonetheless, they are strong alkalis that ought to be managed prudently. Here are essential safety guidelines:

Protective Gear: It is important to wear gloves, goggles, and any type of lab coat all the time.

Proper Storage: Kept in well closed containers away from moisture to avoid moisture absorption.

Emergency Response: In case of skin or eye contact, wash well with water and try to consult a doctor.

The proper use of sodium hydroxide hardly poses a threat to environment as it is quickly neutralized when drained out with water. Nonetheless, when disposed of wrongly it triggers some issues such as changes in water alkalinity. Follow these best practices:

Also ensure that waste solutions are all neutralized before disposal. Comply with local standard when it comes to the disposal of chemical wastes.

You need the right products and tools

You can learn a lot about this from the aforementioned youtube channels. I recommend building your kit gradually, as you do jobs that require something specific, or you can splurge. Different chemicals do different jobs, and different tools can get in different spots.

Sprays/powders you need (imo):

A specialised kitchen spray. This will have the right chemicals for cutting through grease, and probably the right thing for your kitchen counters, press doors, dining table etc.

A bathroom spray. This tackles soap scum.

Strong vinegar. I get this in our equivalent of a dollar store. 25% vinegar if you can find it. It's brilliant for windows and calcium deposits. And it actually smells *less* vinegary than weaker stuff.

Barkeeper's friend. Incredible stuff, works like a charm on extreme grease, and on sinks. Do not breath it in.

Baking soda. Great for a 1, 2 acid/base punch (not at the same time, one after the other). It's gritty, which makes it scrubby as well as chemical affecting the grime. Mix into a paste with oil to get almost label glue off jars and bottles.

Caustic soda. Treat with care, follow the instructions! This is the only drain cleaner you need. It means business, but it's not "stays in the food chain" toxic. If at first it doesn't clear the drain, try it a few more times. Did I mention to read the instructions?

Tools:

A selection of microfibre cloths. There are different textures available, you could get a few different types.

A razor blade scraper. Lots of surfaces are absolutely fine to scrape a clean undamaged blade across. Including glass stove tops and PVC windows and doors. If you take care, you can use it on softer surfaces too.

Detail brushes.

Magic erasers. These are so impressive. Use repetition rather than pressure though!

Masks. For when the odours of what you're cleaning, or the odours of what you're cleaning with, are too much. Also for when you're throwing up dust or mouse poo or whatever.

Discover the Fascinating Journey of Aluminium Production?

While aluminium is the Earth's most abundant metal, it doesn't exist naturally in its pure form. Instead, aluminium readily combines with other metals to create compounds. Unlike iron, which can be isolated through straightforward furnace melting of its compounds, aluminium's production process is considerably more intricate, demanding substantial electrical power. Consequently, aluminium smelting facilities are strategically located near clean energy sources, typically hydroelectric power plants, to minimise environmental impact. But let's begin at the outset.

Let’s begin with the process.

Bauxite Mining

The aluminium production process consists of three main stages. First, bauxites, which are rich in aluminium, are extracted from the Earth. Second, these bauxites are refined into alumina or aluminium oxide. In the third stage, pure aluminium is produced through electrolytic reduction, where aluminium oxide is broken down into its components using electrical current. Approximately 4-5 tonnes of bauxite are processed into 2 tonnes of alumina, from which about 1 tonne of aluminium can be derived.

While various minerals can be used to extract aluminium, bauxite is the most common and preferred source. Bauxite is primarily composed of aluminium oxide, often mixed with other minerals. Bauxite is considered high quality if it contains over 50% aluminium oxide. These bauxite deposits exhibit a wide range of characteristics; they can be solid, dense, or crumbly and their colours can vary from brick red, flaming red, or brown due to iron oxide to grey or white in cases of low iron content. Bauxites with hues like yellow, dark green and multi-coloured varieties with bluish, purple, red and black streaks can be found.

Around 90% of global bauxite resources are situated in tropical and subtropical regions, with the majority, 73%, concentrated in just five countries: Guinea, Brazil, Jamaica, Australia and India. Guinea boasts the largest bauxite supply, totalling 5.3 billion tonnes, accounting for 28.4% of the global supply. Guinean bauxites are renowned for their exceptional quality, characterised by minimal impurities and their proximity to the surface simplifies the mining process.

Alumina Production

The subsequent production process involves converting bauxite into alumina, also known as aluminium oxide (Al2O3), a white powder. The predominant method for producing alumina from bauxite is the Bayer process, a century-old technique still widely employed today, with approximately 90% of global alumina refineries utilising this method. The Bayer process proves highly efficient but necessitates high-quality bauxite with relatively low impurities, mainly silicon.

The fundamental principle of the Bayer process is as follows: the crystallised aluminium hydrate present in bauxite readily dissolves in concentrated caustic soda (NaOH) at elevated temperatures. Aluminium hydrate crystallises upon cooling and subsequent solution concentration, while the other elements present in the bauxite (referred to as ballast) either remain undissolved or recrystallise and settle at the bottom long before aluminium hydrate crystallises. Consequently, after dissolving aluminium hydrate in caustic soda, the ballast can be effortlessly separated and removed, resulting in a byproduct known as red mud.

The Final Process

Following bauxite mining and alumina production, the final stage involves electrolytic reduction to create aluminium. The heart of an aluminium smelter, the reduction area, differs markedly from traditional steelworks. It consists of expansive rectangular buildings, some exceeding a kilometre in length, housing numerous reduction cells or pots connected to power sources via massive cables.

Operating at constant voltages between 4 and 6 volts, with amperages reaching 300 to 400 KA or more, electric current powers the highly automated production process, requiring only a minimal workforce. Within each reduction cell, aluminium is produced from alumina through an electrolytic reduction in a 950°C molten cryolite bath, with the cell's bottom acting as the cathode and large cryolite-carbon blocks serving as anodes.

An automated alumina feeding system introduces fresh alumina into the cell every thirty minutes. Electric current breaks down aluminium-oxygen bonds, accumulating aluminium at the cell's base, forming a 10-15 cm layer. At the same time, oxygen combines with carbon in the anode blocks, creating carbon dioxide. Aluminium is extracted from the cell using specialised vacuum buckets two to four times daily. A hole is punched in the surface cryolite crust, allowing a pipe to draw in liquid aluminium. On average, each reduction cell yields about 1 tonne of metal, while a vacuum bucket can hold up to 4 tonnes of molten aluminium before transport to the casthouse.

The aluminium production process emits 280,000 cubic metres of gases per tonne of aluminium produced, necessitating gas removal systems in every reduction cell. These systems direct emitted gases to a gas treatment plant, where modern dry gas treatment employs alumina to filter out toxic fluoride compounds, creating a closed-loop system. Due to the substantial electrical power required for aluminium reduction, using eco-friendly renewable sources is crucial.

Hydroelectric power plants are the primary choice, delivering ample power without environmental pollution. For example, in Russia, 95% of aluminium smelters rely on hydroelectric power. However, regions still dependent on coal-fired generation, such as China, see 93% of aluminium production powered by coal plants, resulting in significantly higher carbon dioxide emissions—21.6 tonnes per tonne of aluminium produced, compared to just 4 tonnes with hydroelectric power.

Understanding the Uses and Hazards of Sodium Hydroxide

What is Caustic soda? Sodium Hydroxide, also known as lye or caustic soda, is an highly corrosive chemical compound with the formula NaOH. It is a white solid ionic compound that is crystalline but often appears as a white powder. Caustic soda has strong alkaline properties and it functions as a strong bases.

Industrial Uses of Caustic soda As one of the most important industrial chemicals, caustic soda has a wide range of applications. One of its major uses is in the production of paper pulp from wood. The alkaline properties of caustic soda help to break down the lignin in wood into its constituent parts, which allows the cellulose fibers to be separated for making paper. It is also commonly used for manufacturing soap and detergents by saponification, which is the reaction of fat with caustic soda that produces soap and glycerol. In the Sodium Hydroxide petroleum industry, caustic soda is used in petroleum products processing to neutralize acidity and remove sulfur compounds and metals. It also has applications in chemical industry for manufacturing of aluminum, explosives, dyes and organic chemicals. Caustic soda plays an important role in treatment of waste streams and water purification and is used as a pH balancer and disinfectant in municipal water treatment.

Household Uses of Sodium Hydroxide Caustic soda has various household uses as well. It is the main active ingredient in many drain cleaners as it can dissolve organic matter like hair and grease blocking drains. It is also used for cleaning, as its high pH helps break down organic soils. Caustic soda mixed with water forms a strong base cleaning solution that is effective at removing tough stains from surfaces like ceramic tiles, bathroom fixtures and kitchen appliances. Lye soap can also be made at home using caustic soda for cleaning and laundering purposes. However, it is highly corrosive and proper safety precautions must be followed when using it for domestic cleaning.

Safety and Hazards of Caustic soda Due to its highly alkaline nature, caustic soda can cause severe burns on contact with skin, eyes and internal organs if ingested. Its solutions have a high pH of around 13 or more, making them very corrosive. Exposure to caustic soda may cause damage to skin and eyes on contact in form of burns, blindness or permanent damage if not washed off immediately with lots of water. Breathing in dust or atomized mists of caustic soda can severely irritate nose, throat and lungs. Ingestion of caustic soda solutions or solids should be considered a medical emergency and needs immediate treatment to avoid severe complications or damage to esophagus and stomach lining.

Caustic soda should always be handled with appropriate protective equipment like gloves, goggles and protective clothing. Spills should be cleaned up promptly using neutralizing agents. Proper disposal of unused caustic soda is important as dumping it down household drains or into water bodies can raise pH levels dangerously. Due to its corrosivity and hazardous nature, caustic soda solution requires careful handling, storage and transportation according its safety data sheet guidelines.

Environmental Impacts of Sodium Hydroxide While caustic soda has widespread usage in industries and households, it also poses environmental hazards if not handled or disposed properly. Accidental releases of caustic soda into waterways, soil or air can severely disturb the pH balance and natural ecosystems. Small amounts of caustic soda discharge from industrial effluents into lakes and rivers can make the water too alkaline, affecting aquatic life. Caustic soda-contaminated wastewater that seeps into soil could deprive it of nutrients and damage plants.

​Its atmospheric emissions have been linked to depletion of ozone layer as well. Therefore, environmental regulations strictly monitor industrial discharges and require use of effective neutralization and wastewater treatment before allowing caustic soda containing wastewater to be released into environment. Proper storage, transportation and disposal methods must be followed diligently to curb ecological impacts of this industrially important but hazardous chemical.

Sodium Hydroxide is a crucial industrial chemical with wide commercial applications mainly due to its high alkaline nature and ability to breakdown organic materials and fats. While indispensable for manufacturing of many essential products, its corrosive properties also make it dangerous to handle without safety precautions. Both industries and households must take necessary steps to minimize hazards during production, use and disposal of caustic soda to protect human health and environment.
