^^Ha! Definitely sounds more interesting, although the procedure is a bit too complicated for my simple mind to grasp/execute.

Isn't science FUN kids?

Poor some (undiluted) into an empty 2 liter soda bottle, stuff some aluminum foil in there, put the lid on tightly, and RUN!

and make copper

^ My variation is so much better.

1 Coleman White Fuel Can - Empty, cleaned
3-5 small wads of aluminum foil
1 jug of HCL
3 'Punching' balloons

Pour HCL, (or red devil lye and water into can), drop aluminum wads into can, Stretch balloon over mouth of can(make sure to tie rubber band on nipple of balloon), inflate to full size, tie mouth of balloon. Attach rubber band to a post or something off the ground, and away from flammable stuff. Grab extending paint stick, or something similar to allow at least 6 feet between you and punching balloon. Place a small candle on end of stick, light candle, place under balloon.

PROFIT!


(I do not suggest this to anyone, nor I am not condoning this, I was taught this by a HS Biology teacher, so don't blame me if you kill yourself or others, blame the Public Education System.)

Common name for HCl is muriatic acid.

[AbsorbantNut]

i use it in pools?

[AndrewBird]

You can get it from any pool supply store

Generally called Muriatic Acid in that form. Same thing, different name. Hardware stores will generally sell it too. I use it occasionally to etch circuit boards.

I've used something called Milkstone Cleaner - available from any Diary Supplies place. It's Phosphoric Acid. Diluted down to 15%, works wonders!

With any acid - it will eat the oxide, which would result in pitting tho.
