Make Electroconductive Gel: Silver Chloride Gel

AI Thread Summary
To create an electroconductive gel, various materials and their properties are discussed. Silver chloride gel is questioned for its conductivity, with suggestions that it may not perform well. Alternatives like silver flakes or dust are proposed, although concerns about corrosion are noted. Graphite grease is mentioned as a viable option, but there is a preference for a cleaner gel that avoids the mess associated with grease. The discussion emphasizes the need for effective conductivity while maintaining a clean application, without a specific purpose for the gel stated.

What is the environment for this gel? Would a grease work? Heat sink compound might be the answer in that case. I don't think that silver chloride gel would conduct electricity very well. Perhaps a silver flake or dust might work for awhile before it corroded. Graphite grease would be a good choice as well.
 
the gel should not be sooo dirty like grease! I've got no exact purpose for this gel, jjust wanted to kno how to make it!
 
It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
