Thanks mgb_phys. The paint has tiny glass spheres added to it and was developed in cooperation with nasa. Heres a link http://www.thermilate.com.au/ Yeah that's what i thought. I am sure he said endothermic though, have to relisten. Cheers Damian

Ok so there's this paint that has been produced which contains small glass beads. When painted on to a wall it acts as insulation. Very good insulation in fact. I was listening to a radio show where a person was talking about it and he described that it was endothermic in nature. Now i know what...

This is why chemistry drives me crazy. There are so many exceptions to the rule, it hardly seems a science in comparison to physics. Thanks heaps for your help though

Ok I understand that O2 wants to have a stable number of electrons for its period which is 8 and so it shares two pairs of electrons. But what about S8. I thought it would form S2. Why is it forming S8, what is the logic. Cheers Damian
