Nothing says "I'm a competent researcher" like reporting yields that defy the laws of thermodynamics. 180% yield? Either you've discovered how to create matter from nothing, or more likely, you've made a spectacular error in your calculations. But hey, at least you get to strut around the department with that smug "kemist" energy while the other labs question their entire existence. Pro tip: when your product weighs more than your starting materials, it's not a breakthrough—it's water in your sample.
Ours Is Better! (180% Better, Actually)
