having done a lot of organic chemistry in my years of education I can say with certainty that this post is much more realistic and representative of the vast majority of reactions you would encounter during organic synthesis. the flashy colors and striking color changes are much more common with inorganic reagents, but that’s not to say organic doesn’t have its colorful moments!
This was one of my favorite experiments in organic chemistry. I was mesmerized by watching the crystals form. Most of organic chemistry was making boring crystals but these needle-like shards were awesome

I remember doing this one myself and i can confirm that the crystals are indeed beautifull
I got a stroke reading this
So is the liquid just becoming more cloudy or is it actively freezing itself?
The reaction happened so slowly I didn’t realise it was a gif!
I know Acid Betty, but not Acid Ester.
