    Buy Fe2O3 and Aluminium Powder in NSW??

    ASSESSABLE PRACS (The Acidic Environment)

    What would be gained by allowing you to copy and paste the docs? You would not be learning rather, just copying and pasting without understanding the info. And besides that, why do you wish to copy the docs? Jamesy

    Increased temperature in chemical reactions

    Yes the noble gases do react, but as you said only at very high temperatures and to the best of my knowledge they have only been able to get xenon to react with fluorine gas. This mainly the case because fluorine gas has an extremely high tendency to strip electrons from any atom that it can...
