Making a mirror.

this is so cool

Vampires can't see themselves in mirrors according to myth because the metal precipitating on the back of the glass used to always be silver

Put that solution in a supersoaker to brighten up the town. Mirrored splashes everywhere🤩

It is so cool what hazardous chemicals can do

@noobahurg I think we actually did something like this in my chemistry class! It was in December, we made silver ornaments by creating a specific chemical mixture inside a clear glass ornament ball. I’d send a picture if it wasn’t 2 am rn— I still have it.

Lo que está en el recipiente es el reactivo de Tollens. Nitrato de plata + hidróxido de sodio + amoníaco al que se le añade glucosa para que la plata iónica se reduzca sobre el vidrio a plata metálica.

Need some chemistry guy to let know what goes in it.

that is fascinating....

I’ve always wondered how those were made; it’s like magic 🪄🪞
