Wasn't it just H2O2 though...

Put some glycerin in there.

Im pretty sure that is a hydrogen peroxide solution

Nah, this is just reversed. You can't fool me.

It's actually hydrogen peroxide . Not sulphuric acid . Get your chemistry right . https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OLUyeCC-2Ko

Used in water treatment as an oxidizer to remove fine particulate of Iron, Manganese and smell Also used to stop bacterial growth

So I shouldn't stick my dick in it?

Also used in nuclear plants as decontamination chemical to cleanse steel objects. Source: I worked in decontamination.

I love permanganates.

Thought you were playing it in reverse at first

MnO4- is a strong Oxidising Agent. So it will get Reduced by almost anything. The degree of reduction varies. In acids it will form Mn2+ 1/
iBangYourFace
Which is colourless. MnO4- + 5 e- + 8 H+ --> Mn2+ + 4 H2O. In Neutral solution brown MnO2. MnO4- + 3 e- + 4 H+ -->MnO2 + 2 H2O. 2/
iBangYourFace
And in Basic solution Green MnO4 2-. MnO4- + e- -->MnO4 2-. 3/
arthurherkiknowthemayor
Thank you, iBangYourFace.
MycolTheFunguy
Agreed. Nice explanation.
TrumpRapesChildren
Serious question. I didn't notice the level of acid increase in the beaker. Why? Did it break down entirely?
TheBrokenBox17
Please explain? Is the purple stuff a pH indicator and the clear stuff a buffer or something.
Vlaceo
So the purple stuff is a base, with a lot of pH indicator in it, indicating acid (clear/colourless) to base (dark purple) 1/?
Vlaceo
When the dark purple base is added to the acidic solution, the acid solution gets a tiny bit more basic, because of the base added. 2/?
Vlaceo
However, it isn't basic enough to turn purple, so it stays clear/colourless. In sections where there is residual purple leftover 3/?
Vlaceo
that sectopm of the solution has more basic solution in it than the other parts, thus why it is purple. Put the whole bottle of base in 4/5
Vlaceo
and the acidic solution will most likely turn basic enough to turn a bit purple, or entirely purple. Good enough explanation? 5/5

Reminds me of titration labs in chemistry. God how I hated those.

My high school teacher always said: you gotta have good titration skills.
zbaerenlovesme
Meanwhile I finished the lab and did it again for fun and more data. Did only get a C though, no one's perfect.
paulpounder
I do titration for a living
Sharpie12
Everyone did. God bless those poor souls that have yet to do them
ComicallyLongUsername
God how I wish we could have just tipped the bottle straight in for the first 95% of a titration.
NeckDeepInAGiraffe
We did that most of the time in school. There was always a calculation involved in the process, so we had knew how much to let in.
jbilly90
So much this

Were called "Tröpfelpraktikum" - "Drip work experience" in our faculty.
FeyLily
I can sympathize. I remember one day where one of my classmates took the base solution and showed it to the teacher saying he thought he 1

2 finished, and she said he was. He hadn't even added anything to it

Just make sure you use a good clamp. Was stuck with a purple hand for a week after an accident with one.

Unpopular opinion: Titrations were fucking awesome

Myowngrampa
Yeah I never minded them
JordD04
At school there were a group of people in my class who loved titrations and called themselves the 'Titration Nation'.
Stravitch
I still remember potassium permanganate (I think) staining my skin for a long time when I broke a flask full when I dropped it. Purple lyfe.
iftheshoefitz
Not when they're your job. What a massive pain in the hoop
RockPaperPenis
I service over 100 residential pools every week. Titration like it's going out of style
Ishalldefenestrateyou
Get an auto titrator, takes like 3 minutes. Including the math.
TheBestRussian
I enjoyed them! I also loved doing the equations.
Zyrixion
Liking stoichiometry is the most unpopular opinion you can have about chem class.
TheBestRussian
It was like brain massage. But I also enjoyed calculus, for the same reason.
Zyrixion
I'll be honest, stoichiometry was fun, I enjoyed the brainwork. Also love math for the same reason.
