  • My chemistry teacher told me of this horrible irony

    If you replace two of the hydrogens at opposite ends with Oxygens it can't exist.

    For it become a "parad-ox"

    Worse if they are right next to other. Then you can't do any experiments because they are "orthod-ox," and thus refuse to change XD

    (It's a pun...Get it?)

  • anyone else keep playing 1:40 over and over again?

  • @Vennificus

    Then would replacing the 1st and 3rd hydrogen with an oxygen create a metadox?

  • Everyone loves ⌬

  • 0:40 How do you recognize a woman's lab? Colors, colors, colors everywhere :-P

  • @MrCasualTea

    Benzene has two isomers that are constantly changing to each other.

  • In my highschool chemistry class we just learned that benzene does not in fact contain any double bonds, but that each bond is an intermediate between double and single. Now I don't know what to believe.
