Check out my other channel NileBlue: http://www.youtube.com/c/NileRed2 Oddly enough, many lead compounds have a sweet taste. One of the most famous ones is probably lead acetate. It is highly water soluble and it looks and tastes like sugar. I'll be making it in two ways: 1) Lead oxide + acetic acid 2) Lead metal + acetic acid + hydrogen peroxide Video links: Explosiopedia: https://vimeo.com/111929288 TheBackyardScientist: https://youtu.be/iYj0sSC-NRc Info reference: https://goo.gl/Xg5TRt
