    Yes. N2 can be used in like aircraft pontoons and whatnot to prevent rusting but Argon is used for highly in need of preservation of valuables like my friend who owns the only existing 7 foot remote control ghost (casper balloon with string).

    technically, no one knows anything.

    Thx. In return I will say I may be wrong about breathing. I dont think I am, but I may be.

    talk abt changing the goalposts

    I guess your logic skills are shot. I posted an actual stoichiometry problem to solve. You cannot google the answer to that-you have to actually solve it.
  6. kav
    I said one could not google how to DO a stoichiometry problem. Maybe you need clarification-you cannot google how to do a particular problem-you have to KNOW how to do it-that comes with a chemistry degree.

    lemme do some digging.

    So you can solve a stoichiometry problem by watching that! How mant grams of H2SO4 react with NaCl to make 4 moles of HCl?

    I can PM it to buzz, whom I trust.

    I'll be happy to demonstrate with something you cannot google, like solving a stoichiometry problem.

    nope

    It still needs to be hydrolyzed even if it is acidic. I've said my piece for those that can understand. Believe what you want.

    The two drivers of paper degradation are oxygen and water. There are two principal chemical degradation pathways of paper: acid-catalysed hydrolysis and oxidation. Letting the paper "breath" so the "bad molecules" leave is ludicrous-you are just introducing more O2 and moisture.

    Thats the point-you dont see how a chemistry education could relate to the way molecules move, interact, how the the perfect gas law works or anything. Ps a chemistry class is not just a 'classroom'. There are also 2 three hour labs weekly per course.

    Where did you and Borock get your degrees in chemistry? I got mine at CSUS.

    More Povertyisms. Books compressed and under stacks release less gas than books near the top. If "off gassing" was a thing, the books at the bottom would be in worse shape. This is simple science.

    I used to see this stuff when I was doing webcomics-people going to extraordinary lengths to generate a name for themselves and their stuff. It never worked, ever.

    How were the books at the bottom of the stacks in Church's collection-the ones in the best condition, doing more'off gassing than the ones at the middle or top? Pls stop with the Povertyisms.

    First spider man comic i ever bought. I was used to the 60s cartoon reruns and was like WTF.

    at least we can clone him at some point!!!

    also if you change your mind and retract your no. If its a solid no, youre likely toend up with endless argument. We've certainly seen that played out here many times.

    If a complaint goes public, I guess its best to respond. But not if some numbskull asks to borrow your car.
