Hi guys

I know that you can use dexpan to create crack in stones and concrete. Like non explosive demolition.

My question is what chemicals can create cracks in stones or concrete? I heard that calcium salt can create cracks in concrete but I don't know which calcium salt

Can somebody know any household or lab chemicals that can crack stones and concrete

Is there some reason you couldn't find this?

I wouldn't have found it, because I wouldn't have known what to search for...

But Google is really effective.

AI systems are even more "effective", in the sense that if they don't know the answer, they will just invent an answer.
- But they are less effective at providing a list of references
- And they consume a lot more electricity than Google queries!

Indeed, "invent" or maybe concoct or confabulate ?
