AI Thread Summary
A user is seeking a standalone salt bath capable of reaching temperatures up to 600°C, with dimensions of approximately 1 foot tall and 0.5 feet wide at the base. They are specifically looking for a metal container equipped with a heating element suitable for melting lithium nitrate (LiNO3) and potassium nitrate (KNO3). Recommendations for online sources or manufacturers that provide such equipment are requested. Additionally, a suggestion was made regarding a 60:40 mix of sodium nitrate to potassium nitrate as a potential solution for achieving the desired temperature.

I am looking for a standalone salt bath that can reach temperatures of 600°C. Maybe 1 foot tall and 1/2 foot wide at the base. Does anyone know where I can find one online?

I'm talking more of a metal container with a heating element that I can just put the salt into. I will be melting LiNO3 and KNO3.
 

Thread 'Why does having 8 valence electrons make an element inert?'

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!!

Thread 'Solubility of MgSO47H2O in water'

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...
