How do you make magic ink?

Making disappearing ink requires some chemical compounds that may not be readily available at home. Making blue disappearing ink requires .10 grams of thymolphtalein, 10 milliliters of ethyl alcohol, 90 milliliters of water, and 20 drops of 3M sodium hydroxide (or 10 drops of 6M sodium hydroxide solution.) Start by dissolving the thymolphtalein in the ethyl alcohol. Then stir in the water. One drop at a time, add the sodium hydroxide until the solution turns dark blue. Store the ink in a sealed container until you want to use it.

Well, if too much current goes through the wires or their coating might melt.

Or you can always use a hammer. Or a blade. But why do you hate electromagnets anyway?

What is it called when toxic stuff goes into clean water?

It is called water pollution when toxic substances are released into clean water sources, leading to contamination and harm to aquatic life and human health.

What is the measure of the amount of 'disorder' on energy in a system?

The amount of 'disorder' in a system is known as entropy. The entropy of a system is determined by several factors and has an understood rule. The entropy of a system can never decrease, it may remain the same and increase but it can never decrease. This is a result of the fact that everything in nature tends to lean more towards disorder as opposed to order.

What is a physical atribute?

A physical characteristic. Your height, hair color, eye color etc.

Is oral suspension the same as tablet?

What is the best method to indicate that the sample of water is pure?

The best method to indicate that a sample of water is pure is through water quality testing using methods like chromatography, spectrophotometry, or conductivity measurements. These methods can detect impurities such as chemicals, heavy metals, or microorganisms in the water. Additionally, comparing the test results against water quality standards set by regulatory bodies can confirm the purity of the water sample.

Why will the door knob only turn one way now?

The doorknob is on one side of the door. It is natural for people to turn out, not in. There's no point making the doorknob turn both ways so manufacturers make it so that it turns only one way to save themselves time.

How does lighting wake up the ground?

No, that doesn't make any sense at all for several reasons. The ground is not a living things, so it does not have the capabilities of being awake or asleep. What really causes lighting is static electricity formed in clouds gives off and electrical discharge with the ground beneath it. For example, if the ground was positively charged and the ground was negatively charged, then static electricity would be given off, causing lightning. Also, I think you may have spelled lightening wrong.

Why does air resistance increase when speed does?

Air resistance, also known as drag, increases with speed because the faster an object moves through the air, the more air molecules it must push aside. This results in a greater force acting in the opposite direction of motion, ultimately slowing down the object.

How does verdigris occur?

Verdigris is a green or bluish-green coating that forms like rust on brass, bronze, or copper. It is caused by a chemical reaction when these metals have been exposed to acidic elements over time.

What is the molarity of 2.0moles of glucose in 4.0l of glucose solution?

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the number of moles of solute by the volume of the solution in liters. In this case, the molarity of the solution containing 2.0 moles of glucose in 4.0 liters would be 0.5 M (2.0 moles / 4.0 liters = 0.5 M).

Are semimetals shiny?

Some semimetals or commonly known as ''metalloids'' can sometimes be shiny. So yes; semimetals are shiny

Are office chair pistons filled with nitrogen?

Most consumer (cheaper ones) are just a vacuum air valve setup. When you raise the handle on a chair you are opening a sealing valve to let "outside air" into the cylinder and a weak spring will help the chair move up. When you sit in the chair you are over powering the spring and the air holds you up. When you raise the handle again while sitting in it you are opening the valve and the air will escape and the weak spring will give from the weight of the person in it lowering it back down. The more expensive chairs may have a hydraulic or air pump to raise you up. Similar to a Barber Shop chair.

The more extreme (expensive) office chairs may have a replaceable nitrogen cartridge.

The inside of a balloon is not sound proof because it isn't a vacuum.

Does platinum react with silver?

Platinum does not react with silver at room temperature. However, under certain conditions such as high temperatures or in the presence of certain chemicals, platinum and silver may form compounds or alloys with each other.

The melting point of metal gallium is 86 degrees Fahrenheit. What is this in degrees Celsius?

The melting point of gallium in degrees Celsius is 30 degrees. To convert 86 degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius, you can use the formula: (86°F - 32) x 5/9 = 30°C.

How much of the earth's freshwater is stored in glaciers?

The amount of water locked up in ice and snow is only about 1.7 percent of all water on Earth, but the majority of total freshwater on Earth, about 68.7 percent, is held in ice caps and glaciers.

Will mixing bleach and Windex make a toxic fume?

How do you measure one second without a watch?

One way to measure one second without a watch is to count "one Mississippi" between two events. This method involves saying "one Mississippi" at a steady pace, with one second passing between each count. Another way is to use your heart rate as a guide - typically, a resting heart rate will beat around 60 times per minute, so counting two heartbeats should roughly equate to one second.

Which will float higher an apple or pepper?

Gravity prevents these things from floating high..... unless ur in space than whichever is pushed harder;)
