did you know this about epsom salt?

[Luger187]

Magnesium sulfate is the primary substance that causes the absorption of sound in seawater.[1] Absorption, in this case, means the conversion of acoustic energy to heat energy. The conversion is a strong function of frequency. Lower frequencies are less affected by the salt, so that the acoustic energy travels much farther in the ocean. Boric acid also contributes to absorption; but the most abundant salt in seawater, sodium chloride, has no known effect on sound absorption.

apparently its the reason animals in the ocean use low pitch sounds

edit: dammit i meant magnesium sulfate, not epsom salt.

yes thats what epsom salt is. you can use it to help add some magnesium. it also has sulfur in it though

start studying! i love learning new things. science stuff is good to know. especially basic chemistry

Study some shit on this site: http://www.ted.com/talks
They have some about bio chem and nutrients and stuff but pretty much every single video is interesting.

Same thing.

Way back in the day, we used to use epsom salt to cut crank.

 

[Luger187]

Same thing.

wiki says magnesium sulfate is MgSO4. epsom salt is MgSO4-7H2O. i think that may be after u add water though haha
