Acidity alone doesn't corrode glass. The acids famous for corroding glass (HF and H2F-SBF7) do so because they contain free fluorides, not because of their acidity.
+mini hoov From Wikipedia: The term "Superacid" was first used in 1927 when James Bryant Conant found that perchloric acid could protonate ketones and aldehydes to form salts in nonaqueous solution.[1] The term itself was coined by Gillespie later, after Conant combined sulfuric acid with fluorosulfuric acid, and found the solution to be several million times more acidic than sulfuric acid alone.[2] The Magic Acid system was developed in the 1960s by George Olah, and was to be used to study stable carbocations. Gillespie also used the acid system to generate electron-deficient inorganic cations. The name originated after a Christmas party in 1966, when a member of the Olah lab placed a paraffin candle into the acid, and found that it dissolved quite rapidly. Examination of the solution with 1H-NMR showed a tert-butyl cation, suggesting that the paraffin chain that forms the wax had been cleaved, and then isomerized, to form the ion.[3] The name appeared in a paper published by the Olah lab.
this is not a superacid, since it is contained in glass. The HF with SbF5 (superacid) eats through glass faster than hot water through thinnest layer of chocolate.
Superacid means any acid with a lower pKa than sulfuric acid. Fluoroantimonic acid is _a_ superacid, trifluoromethylsulfonic acid is another. (And like HF, fluoroantimonic acid only eats through glass because of the free fluorides, not because of its acidity.)
we got anything like the xenomorph blood from aliens yet?
Just mix HF and SbF5.
Fluroantimonic acid is what you would be looking for my friend, its powerful enough to dissolve the front armour of a tank
Wouldn't the acid react with the glass since it's a SUPERacid?

i thought fluoroantimonic acid was the strongest
Of course that's the strongest. this acid is just 'one of the' strongest acid.:)
LaFFle lol but it's technically not THE superacid :P lol sorry I'm being pucky and literal xD

+LaFFle you can't really access fluoroantimonic, and it eats rough anything other than Teflon, so it is hard to work with.
The Chemistry Kid , oh and it's 400$ a gram
Thats a good band name
MR SLAV?

Forbidden Water
That must get incredibly hot...
It's so hot I have a SUPERboner
O
not the strongest tho
fluoroantimonic acid is da king
I'm all over these fake videos.
Pour it to your face
You first.
My face is already broken. I dont have to make it worse.
