Haha Holy shit. Greatest day in chem.


Okay. So in bold is the lab procedure sheet. In the non bold is what we actually did.

1. Hold a strip of magnesium ribbon in a flame. DO NOT LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE BURRNING METAL. Record your observations. First off, I do everything step by step, so if you dont put the warnings first, IM GONNA LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE BURNING METAL! C'mon now. I'm a 15 yr old. Im no good w/ directions! So I was working w/ Megan, Jillian, and Mia. Now, Megan joined Mia and I so she wouldn't have to work w/ Jillian. That obviously failed cuz jillian somehow flocked to our group. =\ So bottom line, megan and i looked directly at the burning metal! COULDN'T SEE FOR A FEW SECONDS!

2. Place aobut 1/2 teaspoon of cobalt nitrate and 1/2 teaspoon of solid KSCN in mortar and pestle. DO NOT USE THE SOLUTION OF KSCN, WHICH IS ON YOUR TABLE. Observe where the crystals are in contact. Now grind the mixture and record your results. Now there were many things that we did wrong here. First of all, Megan and i had no flipping clue that KSCN is CYANIDE! Now what is Cyanide do u ask? Good question. I know what it is. But to get a better definition for all of yall...i got this offline: Cyanide is a very poisonous chemical. Exposure to high levels of cyanide harms the brain and heart, and may cause coma and death. Exposure to lower levels may result in breathing difficulties, heart pains, vomiting, blood changes, headaches, and enlargement of the thyroid gland. Cyanide has been found in at least 415 of the 1,430 National Priorities List sites identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). HAHAH. Megan and I inhaled the cyanide. We got it all over our hands.(it burns through skin) SO WE HAD A LOT OF WASHING TO DO! THen we mixed it wrong. So we were fucking it up so bad and kept putting random chemicals into the mixture. Haha. And we dont like jillian, she sings opera when she thinks no one is listening, talks to herself, answers back, then laughs at it. Iono. She's an odd one.
Jillian: *looks at me attempting to crush the WRONG things* Omg what r u doing?!
Me: making dinner

Hahah. Okay. I'm sorry but we're fuck ups.

Yah. Then i wont explain the rest of the lab. But we accidentally lit megans paper on fire =\

Haha. We r awesome. My story folks! Night, all!
