Mixing Sodium and Chlorinated Solvents is Real Bad (Carbon Tetrachloride and Sodium)

All safety documents say to never mix sodium and solvents like dichloromethane. Why is that? Who is Staudinger and what's he warning us against? We misuse and craft carcinogens to find out.

Now its time for the Patreon list! There are a lot of you, and it was a long list, so I decided to randomly pair you up and give each of you a friend. They are your friend forever now, thank me later. If you want a randomly assigned friend, feel free to join the Patreon. No pressure. Next video I could be putting you into groups of threes and requesting group presentations.

Also, three important messages from some featured description guests::

Live your best life people. Things are hard right now, but still don't be afraid to be curious and follow your dreams, provided you're safe and have some good social distance! Oh and to talk and get help if needed, that's a big one

Wash your hands!

And finally:

Stay inside and wash your fucking hands

(it's an important message!)

Also shout out to Joanna and Georgios, they aren't Patreons or anything, they just asked for a shoutout. Sure fine, hello.

Happy birthday to Rhodanide
