Chemistry lab veterans know the terror of magnesium heptoxide (Mg₂O₇) all too well. This highly unstable compound is basically the drama queen of the periodic table—it decomposes explosively at the slightest provocation. Drop a beaker? Boom. Sneeze? Boom. Think about your grant rejection? Boom. The compound doesn't even need a reason; it just wakes up and chooses violence. Working with it is like having a lab partner who's perpetually on their fifth espresso and third existential crisis.
