Thank you very much for all your help ^^ I did understand the last one, but this one is certainly alot easier to write down. Once again, thank you for your help. I was allready a bit afraid as I didn't get it and it is kind of what my whole paper revolves around, but I do understand everything now, and even better I know how to phrase it and write down the reaction now! Thanks p.s. if you wouldnt mind, is it ok if I list you under my sources? after all you have given me some invalueble help here.

Thank you for your reply I was only curious to this luminol reaction, of course my science paper also includes many more things about luminol aswell as conclusions I have to draw from the lab test I did but I had no problems with that. Sadly the diagram you gave in your post is on many websites, but in many diffrent forms which just make it all horribly confusing especially since sometimes diffrent substances are also included in the reaction shown and things like that. It makes it hard to know which one to use for the reaction I had in my lab test. Thank you for helping me out though, its now clear to me how the substances react with each other ^^

A while ago at school I did a lab test with luminol, or to be more exact I made a solution of: 0,2 gram luminol (C8H7N3O2) 180 ml H2O2 10 gram Na2Co3 and 180 ml of water. I had it react with blood and a piece of rusty iron. (so the Fe3+ ions those are I believe.) Now I put myself in the difficult position of having to actually write down the chemical reaction. I can't seem to figure out the reaction myself, and my friends can't really either, I've looked online but I've only found luminol solutions which use other chemicals I know in theory how chemoluminescence works but that doesn't really seem to help me. I would ask my teacher but it's weekend, and I'd really like to know . Can anyone help me? -edit- sorry I posted this in inorganic chemistry I realized it goes in organic after making the post, I didn't want to make a double post so can a mod move it please? thank you.
