Milk + citric acid or pineapple juice formula? (chemistry)

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on a chemistry project focused on milk coagulation when combined with citric acid or pineapple juice. It highlights that milk is an unusual emulsion, and the coagulation process is complex, lacking a straightforward chemical reaction formula. The participants suggest researching the effect of pH changes on emulsions for a deeper understanding. A reference to a relevant scientific article is provided to support the exploration of milk's unique properties. Overall, the conversation emphasizes the complexity of milk coagulation and the need for further investigation into its chemical behavior.

Coagulation is not a simple reaction with a simple reaction equation, you won't find one.

I want to test a humidity sensor with one or more saturated salt solutions. The table salt that I have on hand contains one of two anticaking agents, calcium silicate or sodium aluminosilicate. Will the presence of either of these additives (or iodine for that matter) significantly affect the equilibrium humidity? I searched and all the how-to-do-it guides did not address this question. One research paper I found reported that at 1.5% w/w calcium silicate increased the deliquescent point by...
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!!
I'm trying to find a cheap DIY method to etch holes of various shapes through 0.3mm Aluminium sheet using 5-10% Sodium Hydroxide. The idea is to apply a resist to the Aluminium then selectively ablate it off using a diode laser cutter and then dissolve away the Aluminium using Sodium Hydroxide. By cheap I mean resists costing say £20 in small quantities. The Internet has suggested various resists to try including... Enamel paint (only survived seconds in the NaOH!) Acrylic paint (only...
