Why are my balls clear?

So you’re telling me I Can’t remove moisture/ water through azetroping toluene? Is that what you’re trying to say?

Azulene is blue during distillation. Azulene is one of the many compounds that come with distillation. It’s not an entire fraction, in this situation

I don’t normally care when you’re close enough IE: negative psi or inches of vacuum. I would know what you’re trying to say.

But:

That doesn’t happen. If you were much closer or it was spelled wrong, that’s all good. But you’re way off and just find the correct term that would make sense. Things like this help you when you are questioned about your validity, wouldn’t you think?

Stop using that word. It doesn’t mean what you think it means.

That’s honestly what my phone corrects it to so I haven’t noticed it… so I’ll change that in the keyboard setting.

But azulene forms during distillation correct but from WATER SOLUBLE COMPOUNDS ie if water or moisture is in that distillation flask while he’s running he’s likely not removing the azulene, it’s always been explained to me even by many members of this forum as azeotroping it out. As in meaning to seperate the compound.

You’re really trying to throw shade for nothing. Have a great day man.

That’s not a word, it’s like you’re turning azeotrope into a verb, but it’s a noun.

You can’t seperate azeotropes. End of discussion. I’m done being nice today, I tried.

Dumb fuck.

Funny since the real word azeotrope, a noun, must refer to at least two substances, and means precisely that they cannot be separated through normal distillation

I’m sorry that I wasn’t aware a actual word. It’s been explained to me in that way as I stated. I figured it was meant as in the sense of doing or performing the azeotrope distillation.

@Dred_pirate i never said you can separate them I said by removing the azulene through the word that’s not real so I won’t use it, but azeotrope distillation.

We literally agreed about the samething in this thread yet you want to act like this for what? Grow the fuck up. You could have simply explained it wasn’t a real term in a polite way instead of acting the way you are right now.

Ah sounds like you are referring to removal of a substance from a mixture by boiling off an azeotrope it forms — fair enough

I’m not as retarded as I sound sometimes :man_shrugging:t3: I’ll admit I do use wrong terms on occasion & when corrected properly of these ones like this I take it humbly.

But I know facts are moisture present means you have a water soluble compound. & if not removed it will form these isomers & they will be present in that flask. If it is true single flask run that is.

Those streaks/cloudiness can be very well from excess water, I’m hoping them atleast winterize to an extent of filtering out the fats lipids & waxes, otherwise there would be a bit more odd formations I’d think, but then again I’ve never distilled fats or waxes in my spd runs

a water soluble compound like water?

This discussion is not about isomers! Not even a little!

This is why you get crap

That’s the point; we have no idea what you’re trying to say…

One does not simply “azeotrope water off”.

Okay water is bad context moisture is more proper how about that?

No this does include media’s in the flask from this quote, but in context moisture & water soluble compounds are the same.

This is what I’m explaining.

Me & dred both said there is moisture in there. It’s noticeable easy.

We don’t know if they winterize or run carbon scrub or even filter for that matter to an extent. So there could likely be a number of variables.

The one thing that is fact though is if it’s a single flask no swap out run & there is moisture in the product you will still have a azulene fraction. & if not removed & this is a single flask run would one not think that it is in there?

When you remove the moisture from a solvent you azeotrope it to remove moisture, does the context not apply the same to an oil or have multiple members here & “chemists” explained this wrong here.

noun

Got it already dred give it a rest. I won’t use the word that was explained to me by our peers.

No you don’t.

You’ve been given a definition of azeotrope.

Try substituting it in to that sentence.

Does is hold together?

Then stop using it dude. Hahhahahahahahaha

And agreeing that there is noticeable moisture in his short path, does not mean that you are saying something correctly

Well this seems to be well on point… @cyclopath

The two compounds formed an azetrope, seperating from the water. As the result of the azetrope, doesn’t accept water.

Does that help?
