    Salty water can dissolve and thus destroy a whole bunch of other chemicals… We’re lucky we evolved in an environment full of it so much that we are adapted to it!

      Same with oxygen. Such a corrosive substance, but we evolved to slowly react with it internally.

    You’re missing the fuckton of heat that is generated during neutralization. I’ve had a few lab volcanoes because of it (LOC due to the low-boiling organics flashing boiling).

    On unrelated news, mixing an orange and a red liquid doesn’t give you an orange-red liquid in all cases.

      And mixing the scent of an apple with the scent of cat hair doesn’t give you coconut scent.

      Why … would i think it would?
