Chemistry and?

[Saint Michael]

Are there any clear, flavorless, odorless liquids that seem exactly like water but are some other chemical?

I don't think that's possible. If it's a different chemical, it'll have some different properties for sure.

Lots of liquids are tasteless and odorless.

"other chemical"

I agree that "lite beer" is a synonym for water though.

 

[Jeff7]

Liquid helium.

 

[Random Variable]

Fluoroantimonic acid. You should try some.

 

[Mark R]

Hydrogen peroxide
2-(Fluoro-methylphosphoryl)oxypropane ("Sarin")
Liquid paraffin

Tastes too much like battery acid.

Oh, I forgot. DiHydrogen Monoxide

Seem like water? What do you mean by that, like it behaves in the same way given the same situation?

Not a chance. Water is a very unique chemical nothing behaves quite like it or even have properties near it. The only exception I can think of is if you where to allow a different temperature range then water, but even then I don't know what would be near the same.

I mean you could drink it and you wouldn't know the difference... unless it was poisonous and you learned that after the fact.

Edit: By the way, this isn't homework... what kind of school is even in session right now? I'm just curious.

Hydrogen Peroxide has a very distinct smell/taste/texture and you'd know the difference; I haven't personally tasted the other two.

I'm also talking about pure substances. Pure Hydrogen Peroxide would start burning through your flesh the minute you touched it to your lips.

Wait is it a reference to Super Troopers? If so isn't the correct quote "littering aaaannndddd littering aaannnddd littering aaannnddd, smoking the reefer" You might be thinking of something else though.

EDIT: NM between to it.

You didn't specify that it shouldn't start burning through flesh

propylene glycol?

 

[xSauronx]

OP wants to poison someone and youre all helping....good idea

 

[FleshLight]

liquid CO, liquid CO2

 

[Gibsons]

DMSO sort of but not really.

Very strong oyster/garlic smell and, apparently, taste (not tasted it personally). Really awful nauseous smell.

Nothing has the properties of water without being water. At the very least it will have a different texture/feel.

I got it, and I almost parodied it before opening the topic!
