Liquid mercury

I used to make nitrogen triiodide instead. A lot easier to make, but quite unstable.
Dropped it in small quantities, near the door to the chem lab and when people stepped on it, it would go off with a loud bang and a purple cloud. :lol:

To the OP:
Sorry for the digression.

Mercury is very hazardous. If you can't find where to sell it, please contact your
nearest Hazmat unit to ask about proper disposal.

No way they are getting this bottle. Maybe the smaller one of possibly impure merc, but many haz collects don't even want to deal with the stuff.
 
One regret I have was not getting the large jars of metallic sodium and potassium.

Fun stuff right there. I love playing with chemistry. From making rocket fuel to nitrocellulose, super fun stuff
