most valuable substances in the world by weight

[Moonhawk]

Why are sidelight bulbs for an Aston Martin V8 Vantage not in the list. The last time mine went they cost around £3000 to replace.

[Danattheopticians]

Wow! When they went was it due to an engine fire!

[ikarl]

Gram for gram I thought fire was the most valuable substance

[kowalski655]

Is bull or horse kizz the most expensive? Not that I want anywhere near either!

And on a related note, if you are mega rich,and father a sprog to a golddigger then 1 tiny sperm could cost millions

[BrabusMog]

I thought it was ambergris?

Does anti-matter have any weight?

Turns out it does but I had to Google it. I presumed it had negative weight in which case it would be the cheapest substance available.

[annodomini2]

Antimatter (Anti-Hydrogen) is supposedly the most expensive by weight, something along the lines of $400Bn/g. (Haven't looked at the article yet)

The Chilcot report is pretty valuable, and one hell of a wait.

Sorry, wrong thread.

[Gandahar]

my jism obviously.


Apart from that this would be better off on a finance thread.

Nice to see they are mixing weight up with mass.
So hydrogen is surely the most expensive by weight..

Has that actually been confirmed? I thought there a were a few different hypotheses on the interaction between gravity and antimatter?

[talksthetorque]

A level physics and listening to the IMC while driving precludes me from elaborating any further.

It's clearly printer ink.

I believe bull semen is more expensive than printer ink.

Clogs the nozzles though.

Hydrogen is normally sold in liquid form which is heavier than air.

You've definitely got me there. O

I mentioned this list to my son, who is studying particle physics, and he reckons ununoctium is much more expensive to make than antihydrogen. Anti matter is relatively easy to make apparently, and lasts longer

I expect science buffs will find this interesting; how many can you guess before you look at the list? And can you guess the winner?

It must be soldering flux in B&Q surely.

this ^ this ^^ and thrice this ^^^ all these click for the next picture really grind my gears to the point that 90% of the time I just exit rather than look

How do you put a price on something that does not exist?
