That's some seriously red stuff. Usually the red to me is an abundance of hcl, but maybe not in this case, idk. I've found that 4:1, hcl(l) :H²SO⁴ is the equimolor amount, that uses up all of the sulfuric. Certainly 3:1 will still be gassing. Didnyou have a drying tube online with your gas?

You could be right.mwhen I was look ing for my method, I discounted it because distilling the benzl alcohol out of paint thinner was the most viable method of obtaining Benz. Alc ( the chemical companies sell it but theynprerequisite want to know too much about what you are doing with something) but I noticed recently its on Amazon, so I can just click buy and there are no questions

It's not controlled, but filling out the Sima Eldredge work sheet is daunting. WHAT college or professional licensed business are you representing what the business tax ID? What do you plan to use it for? No thanks
