    Wouldn’t that be uranic dihydrogen peroxide?

    I’m pretty sure dioxide peroxide is not a thing.

    Little Johnny took a drink but now will drink no more

    For what he thought was H2O was H2SO4

      Neat, I’ve never seen that version before. The one I know is:

      Johnny was a chemist's son
      but Johnny is no more.
      What Johnny thought was H2O
      was H2SO4.

      Fun fact: unlike some other site that shall not be named, Lemmy’s markdown can do subscripts!

      Little Johnny took a drink
      but now will drink no more
      For what he thought was H2O
      was H2SO4

        Really? It’s the squiggly to make subscript? I thought that was used for strike through?

              I don’t think it’s complete, though; some you just have to discover for yourself (or guess from familiarity with Markdown on other platforms).

      Strong acids are weak, you’d notice the boiling acid flavor and spit it out with the rest of your mouth lining right away.

      Doubt you’d die from drinking a bit of sulphuric acid, probably would spit it out as soon as you notice your tongue is burning anyway.

    Johnny was a corporate stooge,

    but Johnny’s words untrue;

    what Johnny sold as H2O

    was H2O4U.

    Is H2O4U chemically possibly? I feel like you could make a chain out of the oxygens and put hydrogen at both ends but I don’t hear anything more that O3

      Not as written. But uranyl peroxide is a thing.

      There’s UO4·4(H2O) studtite and UO4·2(H2O) metastudtite

    Is H2O4U actually possible to synthesize? Is it stable?

    Would it be a liquid at any reasonable temperatures?

        I wonder if there’s any Uranium-containing compoud that would be safe(ish) to drink… (In small amounts, of course.)

        It would have to be something that holds onto the Uranium atoms very tightly and also passes right through you without getting absorbed. Hmm… But the radiation aspect is always going to be a problem. No matter what other atoms it’s bonded to, Uranium will still be emitting a bit of alpha radiation – no big deal when it’s outside you since the outer layers of skin block most of it, but when it’s inside you, there’s nothing to block that radiation from damaging the cells of your digestive tract.

      Tetraoxidane (H2O4) is very unstable by itself, and I doubt adding a uranium into the mix would stabilize it

        Hm… I’m guessing that adding Uranium to that would make it quickly oxidize, and instead of H2O4U, you’d get mostly U3O8 (the most stable Uranium oxide) and a bunch of H2O and Hydrogen gas.

          And a lot of heat. If I had to guess, I’d bet on that being a… “rather energetic” exothermic reaction.

          Surely if you shook the bottle well, the ingredients would recombine like a vinaigrette, and the intended flavor could be appreciated.
