Can a chemical be a meme? I would say the following chemicals are memes:
Sulfuric Acid
Hydrochloric Acid
Nitric Acid
Citric Acid
Acetic Acid
Sodium Hydroxide
Sodium Chloride
Iron (III) Oxide
Magnesium Oxide
Copper Sulfate (and •5H20)
Hydrogen Peroxide
Barium Chloride
Methylamine
Formaldehyde
Ammonia
Ethanol
Acetone
Carbon Monoxide
Carbon Dioxide
Ozone
What are some other meme chemicals?

H fucking F. Fuck that meme acid.
Also fluorides in water.
I fucking hate fluorine.
Define 'meme'
Helium

Everything OP Learned about in orgo I this semester.
>>7742145
>Also fluorides in water.
Why do people defend this? Some kind of stockholm syndrome?
I hate all of you.
>>7742114
Gallium, bismuth, mercury and tungsten are the meme metals.
Yeah I agree, fuck copper sulfate. Also EDTA.

>used in mig/mag and tig

>>7742114
>Acetone
>Used to bottle oxyacetylene
>meme
Kill yourself kid
>>7742274
>Tungsten
>Literally the best way to weld aluminum alloys and stainless steel

2daTrash my man
Dihydrogen monoxide
>>7742426
Anything acetyl is a meme.
Acetyl groups are meme groups.
>>7742114
Photos of plain looking models wearing exaggerated PPE and staring into tubes of colourful chemicals has got to be one of the most meme things ever.

What does an actual, professional Chem lab look like, anon?
>>7742458
>nitrile gloves
>safety glasses
>exaggerated
Have you taken chemistry since middle school?
>>7742462
>People avoiding PPE -especially coats- as much as possible because it's uncomfortable as fuck over the formal wear professionals are forced to wear at private R&D labs.
>To exemplify this, when opening or modifying high temperature reactors the most common sight is normal office clothes with single thermal glove+gas mask and nothing else (because getting your lab coat from the hanger is like a 20m walk).
>Only thing actually worn often when working with glassware is latex gloves when you really don't want to contaminate something, but usually nothing.
>Safety glasses are supposed to be worn all the time, but no one respects the fact that "lab safety officers" actually hold legal power at least in theory.
>Lab techs tend to wear full PPE because they want to feel like real scientists.
>>7742465
It's exaggerated because they are obviously not working with anything dangerous.
Benzene
The Autism is strong with this one
>>7742477
>(because getting your lab coat from the hanger is like a 20m walk).
And also fuck full thermal, it takes half a fucking day to get into that shit.
>graphene
>meme
why are you fuckers OK with using this word?
>>7742114
Lithium, zirconium, tin, boron and titanium enolates are memes
>>7742510
Because everything is a meme.
You guys forgot the biggest meme molecule of them all: DNA
>>7742430
This.
>>7742114
>I don't know what a meme is
>>7742814
Yes I do. A meme is a picture of a person or inanimate object in a personified context with white bold and black outlined text concisely stating an oversimplified or ironic observation about said subject.
Go back to listening to AM radio, grandpa.
>>7742114
oxone
hypervalent iodine
sol-gels
high-throughput screening
>>7742410
Really oughta use argon for that instead. Much cheaper, and renewable.
>>7742534
Too derivative. RNA did it first.
>>7742114
>H20
This is the only true meme chemical
>>7742114
Perovskites
>>7742961
Speaking of sol-gels, I have a question if anyone could help.
Would it be possible to evolve a nitrate group out into NO and O2 without disturbing the solution itself?
I detect an absence of FOOF in this thread.

Hey dog, I heard you liked fluorine, so we put two fluorines on your O2, so you could spontaneously combust, while you spontaneously combust, at -100 C.
