So that's great that 'C'subscript-2'O' means dicarbon monoxide, what are the biologic implications of drinking dicarbon monoxide (for those of us who are only 10 and a half and haven't passed middle school yet)?
Apparently it's not even really all that stable, so that whole container would rapidly decompose into probably carbon dioxide (CO2) and a bunch of pure carbon (think charcoal). At least that's my hunch. There is a Wikipedia article on the stuff, but it's pretty short, since it's a pretty unusual chemical (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dicarbon_monoxide ).
CO2 is of course extremely common. I'd love to see what a chemist can describe about a bottle of C2O though!
Yeah, I can't even find an SDS for it.
Bad! Don't!
You can just say you don't know if you don't know lmao. Just funny you knowledge shamed someone while not knowing much about it yourself.
Cheers 😉
That was the ELI10, subsection "Basic Lab Safety."
