However, they are discussing the new question, how to keep him in the trap. Again being chemistry student they think maybe a chemical mixture would work the best. A concentration of acid and water could work, since it could cause enough pain to keep Winter from escaping (He’s a bit of a wimp). However, they don’t know if the molecules of the water and acid would dissolve together spreading, water being the solvent, as it's easier to get, and less suspicious when carrying 70 gallons of it around, than acid, the solute. In simpler terms to someone who hasn’t just taken 8 years of chemistry, they are sure if the acid is soluble with the water to make a dangerous solution. Another option they are thinking about to trap Winter is using a pure substance of acid, instead of diluting it with the water. Also, if they used something clear, it wouldn’t be suspicious, even if it leaves less options on what to use for the acid. The other benefit if that it is a homogenous mixture, so it won’t separate like the water and acid mixture might, since they would be a heterogeneous mixture. Couple minutes later, right before illusion Moon finishes his presentation, they decided this would be the best idea. So in a couple days, they’re going to be carrying in 70 gallons of sulfuric
