NH3
C3H7COOH

spot the similarity?
if not, it's alright.
it's really an experience, to spill aqueous ammonia (the former) onto your hand, let it smell for a while, before it goes off in 5 minutes.

it's really another experience to try to get butanoic acid (the latter) into a test-tube, accidentally spill some on your hand (one drop, for me) and smell for one whole day. in this case, butanoic acid reeks of vomit. i accidentally got it on my thumb, my RIGHT THUMB. chemistry was the second period of the day. the smell hasn't even gone after more than 12 hours, god dammit. my jie's now complaining about the smell.

Something to add to my hate list too, i hope.

studying organic chem is one thing. Hands-on practical is another thing. Screwing-up the transferring of liquids is also another thing. When the liquid's butanoic acid,


good luck.
you'll be avoided for the day just like Rahul.
