Help CO2 bag via baking soda & vinegar? In a bag… would this be quick and painless-ish?

[wuaroi]

Hello , I apologize for making so many help posts but I am desperately trying to find a method and I am on a deadline … but I might of found a better method comparatively to H2S (hydrogen sulfide).

So my plan is to make a bag full of as much carbon dioxide as I can with as little oxygen possible. to do this I want to mix a whole box of baking soda and a lot of white vinegar together in a bottle with a hole in the cap connecting to a trash bag via a straw or some sort that can be detachable.

(Mind you I will be squeezing any air out of the bag and sealing the main opening shut allowing the only thing in the bag is the CO2 it makes.)

Once the reaction is done i will remove the bottle and close the small hole probably with duck tape or something idk. Then while still holding the main opening of the bag closed I will remove the string keeping it closed, take a deep breath, swiftly put my head in and close it with the draw strings. Then (while still holding my breath) i will quickly put a belt around the bag and my neck to keep in extra secure and after all of this is done, I will inhale as much air as I possibly can and hopefully pass out? Hopefully I will pass out in 10seconds< of taking very deep breaths and in turn die after fainting but I have a few questions.

Questions-
I would love to look these up on google but Im having much luck on the web so im here to see if you guys know.

1.) quantity.
Will a box of baking soda and how ever much vinegar it needs to be fully saturated enough? If not how much soda will I need to fill the bag with enough to pass out very quickly?

2.) pain.
After doing so many ridiculously painful methods to no avail, I am desperately looking for one that is realitivly painless but is extremely fast like less than a minute (to pass out at least ). How painful and quick will this generally be and what should I expect the feeling to be like?

3.) likely hood.
Is this actually going to make me pass out quickly and will I die? I understand that some people take the bag off when they're unconscious but other than that would this work if we ignore that possibility? Because I think I know how I can avoid that from being an issue.


4.) time until death (where resesitation is unlikely to impossible.
Lastly I want to know how long after passing out it will take me to actually die and at a point where I wont have to worry about paramedics saving me or like cpr. Although I understand that theres no exsact way to know, are we looking at like 5-10mins, 30-40mins or like 50< mins?

Thank you so much for reading this and if you know the answers to my questions please answer I really need help.
Also if there's anything wrong with this or something that I can improve with the same materials please lmk I only have 2weeks until I absolutely need to cbt I am so desperate to find the answers to my questions.

extra background about the H2S situation [skip able]
I mentioned it earlier in this post and ive made two other posts about this similar method but with FeS and HCl but I decided that I needed to find a better way because if I did manage to live or if something goes wrong etc etc, I dont want to A, leave a huge very noticeable bio hazard behind and B, I dont want to come back home smelling potentially of rotten eggs because that would be very bad. So in turn I thought about this method as CO2 isnt as dangerous and it also does reak of a horrible stench that sticks to you and your clothes.

Thank you for reading all of this have a great day and again, if you have any answers please lmk.

C02 is exactly what sets off oxygen deprivation, kicking in gear your SI, then the body starts desperately trying to get oxygen by violently gasping for oxygen.
I'm not trying to throw a negative spin on it.
Just want you to be aware. Lack of oxygen doesn't start that response, the buildup of carbon dioxide does.
I hope peace & love are able to find you!

But do you know how quickly youd pass out? If its only like 10 seconds it probably wouldnt be too bad

 

[maniac116]

No I don't know, sorry

 

[CantDoIt]

From my understanding the time to pass out depends on quantity of co2

but I might of found a better method comparatively to H2S (hydrogen sulfide).

I think, this method is likely to be substantially worse than H2S poisoning in terms of discomfort/distress and reliability.

That is true when CO2 is either gradually increased from base level but when suddenly inhaling carbon dioxide levels of 90% ppm < it overwhelms your system and although it might be uncomfortable fainting can be expected in a matter of seconds to a minute if done correctly.
I did way more research on how to do it properly with the exact amount of ingredients needed to make it a fast and generally tolerable method. I may make a final post on it as an instruction before i do it myself.

 

[Intoxicated]

Danneman's subjects used the following terms in reference to every concentration of CO2 tested: burning, tingling or prickling, and unpleasant (taste or odour); these terms were used more frequently at higher concentrations. Many described 100% CO2 as piercing, stabbing, painful or causing the eyes to burn or water, and 18 out of 20 subjects indicated that they were unable to take a full breath of this concentration.

Although I think that CO2 poisoning is quite endurable, it doesn't look like an unconditionally superior alternative to H2S. It's a tradeoff between comfort and produced contaminations at the death scene.

Also, vinegar doesn't look like a wise choice, since acetic acid is a volatile irritant. Citric acid should be a better reagent.

I have tried this.
With a ziplock bag instead of a water bottle. A 1L water bottle won't hold much.

Same method with Ziplock bag

1. I used 2 tbsp of each, idk much about chemistry. It wasn't enough in my particular scenario.

2. Theoretically it should be painless and quick. I'll be real the smell is terribly nauseating and burns and it takes multiple practices to even get ur head inside .

I didn't have enough concentration so I ended up ALMOST Blacking out cuz I waited for around 5-7 seconds, of growing pain, then I started losing consciousness. But I took the bag off. If I had had higher conc, it would hv worked .

3. Extremely likely

Its nice to hear the information from experience rather than just google , can I ask you a few questions about your experience though?

1 is it the kind of burning that could be manageable if you plug your nose and take deep breaths in through your mouth?

2 do you think you woulve been able to keep the bag on if you wanted to cbt or was it way to painful.

3 and idk if you remember, but when you did it in the bag over your head how much of each did you use ? Or did you only use 2 tablespoons of each?

Sorry for all the questions Im just trying to figure out as much info before I do it myself.

My current plan that should work at a chemistry stand point is mixing a 1:1 ratio of vinegar to baking soda with 25 table spoons of both inside of a 15liter trash bag since that should make 11 extra liters of gas to compensate the potential loss of gas when you put the bag on. So theoretically I would have a bag with roughly 90ppm< (so like 90%-98% pure CO2.

Although I think that CO2 poisoning is quite endurable, it doesn't look like an unconditionally superior alternative to H2S. It's a tradeoff between comfort and produced contaminations at the death scene.

Also, vinegar doesn't look like a wise choice, since acetic acid is a volatile irritant. Citric acid should be a better reagent.

Yea I would like to use other things but all I have access to that would work is white vinegar hopefully I could manage 10seconds of it /:

Also since I live with other people I couldnt come home smelling strongly of H2S if something does fail … so hopefully I could handle it.

Citric acid is cheap and widely available on the market. I can buy 1 kg of it for less than $2.5, and I guess it shouldn't be hard to obtain in general, unless you have no money. If you want some different useful household supply, you can take a look at sulfamic acid. It's a white powder used for removing rust and limescale.

Sulfamic acid - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

1 kg of this acid costs nearly $4 at the location where I live. Reaction with baking soda goes according to this equation

NaHCO3 + H2NSO3H = H2NSO3Na + H2O + CO2

Bump.

Curious if the OP was still around.
