best acid/mixtures to readily dissolve organics?
I just had an idea of experimentation to determine what chemical is the strongest when it comes to dissolving organics materials, until I realize
that purchasing all the chemicals needed might be quite expensive, not to mention the chemical hazards they represent. Instead, based on the good
reputation of SM forum, I ' m turning to you, forumers, with this pool, to get your opinions, preferably based on a bit of your own experimentation

Strange first post, isn't it? Maybe you want to get rid of somebody's dead body, why should anybody give you instructions?

Not really an opinion is it? Then why a poll?

that wouldn't be a practical neither a discreet way, however rest assured , i'm just curious, I just want to see the corrosion strenght of a couple of
acids on organics

sorry I edited my initial post, to a considerably watered down version, an less focused on "living things etc" . Already tested some of these acids on
metals and nitrics + hydrochlorics worked fine.

Sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide is a little better than with HCl (aq).
Is the body still alive, or have you finished step one?

Sulfuric acid with hydrogen peroxide is the best.
Chromic acid would be about second best but is quite toxic.

I uhhh , know a guy. Sort of owes this fella a favor.
Sulfuric Acid / (STP) 30% Hydrogen Peroxide.
They tried to have me "put to sleep" so I came back to return the favor.

If you wanted to burn / blow it sky high I suppose.
Either way... Out of sight, out of mind.
This thread is creeping me out.

NaOH will leave nothing behind except the enamel from their teeth. I know this because a veteran had to fish out 2 sets of enamel after a pair of boys
fell in the caustic tank at work moons ago.
But since that isn't an acid I pick H2SO4
Atropine, Bicarb, Calcium.

I agree with papya, Sulfuric acid and potassium permanganate will take care of the body...

Yes yes yes, BASE for the flesh, not acids. Without even mentioning NaOH or Ca(OH)2, boiling sodium carbonate solution will easily remove the flesh
from bones, it's used in preparing skeleton specimens for labs. The bones, once freed from their meaty prison, can be burned, crushed, and disposed of
on their own, or one can treat them with sulfuric acid to make some white phosphorus!

!!! I did not know you can make elemental P from crushed up bones and H2SO4.

Clearly you've never visited this site's biggest thread, then(preparation of elemental phosphorus). Bone ash is largely calcium phosphate, which when
acidified with conc. H2SO4 yields phosphoric acid. If carbon is added to the phosphoric acid and the mixture is heated to white heat, gaseous
phosphorus boils out. That's a simplified way of putting it, anyway.

i read that the old source of phosphorus was from the bones of dead creatures,
(may still be?).

What about Cl2O7? It will certainly destroy any organics it comes into contact with. FClO3 would also be an
interesting choice, as would O2F2.
