Note to self: Dont store your elemental iodine water purification chemicals in the same drawer as your jewlery for 2 years as you travel the world..... I came home to literally a pile of rust where most of my jewelry used to be :)
@johnabs What can I say, sometimes I am just a fool :)
@freemo In the immortal words of Miley Cyrus: "everybody make mistakes, everybody has those days...just, preferably not with highly reactive chemical species" 😂
@freemo I can forgive storing chemicals with jewelry freemo, everybody's done it, but an elemental halogen? You crossed the line this time: everyone knows you store your halogens WITH your alkali metals and electrolyze AS NEEDED. Free halogens just say "screw it, *un-electrons your atoms*", and then everyone has a bad time 😂
