anykey Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Hey guys, just wondering if there are any liquids that react to oxygen or air and is not harmful to humans? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woelen Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 I don't think that such a liquid exists. Anything, which is so reactive, that it reacts with air, certainly is dangerous to humans (or in fact: any life form). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d22k Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 umm, i know very little about chemistry, but technically, limewater "reacts" to air, or ratehr the C02 in air, to form a precipitate. I doubt thats the kind of answer your looking for but it fits the brief none the less. Im sure there must be more examples, nothing violent im sure, but reactions are reactions.

jdurg Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 But limewater is not a liquid. It's a solution of one thing dissolved in another. There are MANY solutions that react with air but are somewhat harmless to humans, but I do not know of ANY liquids (I.E. a pure substance) that reacts with air and is non-toxic/harmful.
