Camphor can be used for eczema by applying a diluted solution or cream containing camphor to the affected areas of the skin. It acts as a topical analgesic, providing relief from itching and irritation. However, it's important to conduct a patch test first to ensure there's no allergic reaction and to consult a healthcare professional before using it, especially on sensitive or broken skin. Always follow the instructions on the product label for safe application.

To separate camphor from a mixture of sand and camphor, you can use sublimation. Heat the mixture gently so that the camphor sublimes (changes from solid to gas) and then reverts back to solid form on a cool surface. The sand will remain behind as a residue, allowing the separation of camphor from the mixture.
If your'e close enough to hit with a camphor ball , might as well use shotgun
Yes, it is.
To separate alum, camphor, and sugar, you can use the following procedure: Dissolve the mixture in water: Add the mixture of alum, camphor, and sugar to a beaker containing some water. Stir the mixture until all the components have dissolved. Add ethanol: Add ethanol to the beaker and stir well. Alum will precipitate out of the solution due to its low solubility in ethanol. Filtration: Use a filter paper to separate the precipitated alum from the solution. This will give you a residue of alum and a filtrate containing camphor and sugar. Evaporation: Pour the filtrate into a clean beaker and heat it on a hot plate or evaporate it to dryness to evaporate the ethanol. This will leave behind a residue of camphor and sugar. Separation of camphor and sugar: Add water to the residue to dissolve the sugar and leave the camphor as a residue. Filter the mixture to obtain the sugar solution and the camphor residue. Recovery of camphor: To recover the camphor from the residue, you can use sublimation. Place the camphor residue in a clean and dry evaporating dish and heat it gently. The camphor will sublime and condense on a cool surface, such as a watch glass, which can be scraped to collect the pure camphor. This process will separate alum, camphor, and sugar from each other.
Yes, camphor can be used in soap making as it adds a refreshing and invigorating scent. However, it is important to use it in small amounts as it can be irritating to the skin in large concentrations. Make sure to properly dilute the camphor before adding it to your soap recipe.
It is unknown what the camphor spirit will be able to do. It is best to not take it unless told so directly by your doctor.
Sublimation
To separate a mixture of iron filings, sand, and camphor, you can use a magnet to attract the iron filings, leaving the sand and camphor behind. Then, you can dissolve the camphor in water as it is soluble, allowing the sand to settle at the bottom. Finally, you can filter out the sand to obtain separate components.
To reduce the smell of camphor, you can try airing out the space by opening windows and using fans to increase ventilation. Additionally, using scented candles, essential oils, or air fresheners can help mask the smell of camphor. Lastly, storing camphor in a sealed container when not in use can help contain its strong odor.
It is not safe to use camphor products on babies as it can be toxic and cause serious health issues. It is important to consult a healthcare professional before using any products on infants.
