HgCl2 is white when pure. | |||||||
HgCl2 is white when pure. the zygoat synth will result in pretty dirty looking HgCl2, but it works the same. to test take a tiny crumb of HgCl2 in a few mls of MeOH and add a pieces of Al foil, if it amalgamates, you have it right. by amalgamate i mean the solvent will turn cloudy grey as the Al slowly dissolves We are all just witnesses. |

And, remember that HgCl2 is extremely poisonous. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. |
