Do you think it's synthesized directly into blotter form?
- swiley 7y agoLSD is a solid (I think) so giving a volume probably means a solution which is a weird thing to talk about since it doesn’t really mean much.
- refurb 7y agoExactly. LSD is a solid. It’s as if I said I had 0.5 mL of salt. It tells you nothing other than you have water with salt in it.
- hprotagonist 7y agothe state of matter is a function of temperature and pressure. LSD is a solid, sure -- below 175 F. Then it's a liquid, but it decomposes into simpler molecules before it boils, so it doesn't really have a gaseous form at STP.
- swiley 7y agoIt probably decomposes before it melts, it’s a very fragile molecule. A more reasonable assumption is that it’s a saturated solution at NTP but that’s still quite an assumption.
