Whoops!

Science MemesJohnny was a corporate stooge,
but Johnny's words untrue;
what Johnny sold as H2O
was H2O4U.
Is H~2~O~4~U 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 O~3~
Not as written. But uranyl peroxide is a thing.
There’s UO~4~·4(H~2~O) studtite and UO~4~·2(H~2~O) metastudtite

This is what i missed about old reddit the most.
Love it 😘
I don't want to be guy who needs to read the NMR spectra of this stuff.
Something something H2SO4
Is H2O4U actually possible to synthesize? Is it stable?
Would it be a liquid at any reasonable temperatures?
Tetraoxidane (H2O4) is very unstable by itself, and I doubt adding a uranium into the mix would stabilize it
No way to know until you try
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.
Refreshing!
Awww, the redditor by the name TheZyde understood the joke!
