You don't mix them in your inventory. Just hang on, you will find where to mix them later on.

Spoiler below!
Go to incenerator make your way over the board path and through the door. In there you will find an empty glass container pick it up and turn on gas. Use lighter on the burner and set empty container on top...that is where you mix the chemicals. Also in drawer there is a fuse you will need. When you mix the right chemicals pick up container carry it back over the board pathway to the caved in rocks set it on them and use fuse with chemical and light with lighter.

I have completed the game but I never found out in what order to mix the chemicals. I had the note and all, but still couldn't figure it out, so I just added all the chemicals to the "keypad" and pressed randomly. I got the right potion in a few seconds (and I've done it twice). Smile

1.magnesium
2.calcium
3.barium
4.chloride
5.phosphorus
6.sodium

So in what order is it, really?

RE: How to mix Chemicals - jonathan - 04-06-2007

You have to look at the second page of the note too:
"Badly Administered Dopamine Clouds Frequently Everything"

or

B = 1. magnesium
A = 2. calcium
D = 3. barium
C = 4. chloride
F = 5. phosphorus
E = 6. sodium

Then, the last page of the explosives book that you get near the beginning of the game describes "Death Mix", which is made of phosphorous (F) and barium (D). Mix these two chemicals, and you've got your explosive!

I never realized the last page of the chemicals was a mnemonic device. That's quite clever. I wish the devs had failed compositions instantly explode in your face and kill you so the player would have to take the time to figure it out properly instead of just trial and error like I did until it worked.

Maybe instead of letting it explode in your face, let it combine but it not explode when taken to the rocks...like a dud. If mixing and matching weren't so fast and easy, I'm sure I woulda figured out the mnemonic device.

Thanks for the explanation Jonathan Smile

I dont mean to brag cause I really needed help for most parts of the game but this I actually found out on my own.

*pats on my own back*
