Math question

[monkey35]

I have a question I hope someone can answer or help me with.
One day a Chemist claimed he discoverd a liquid that would dissolve anything. What is wrong with his claim?

Well, obviously a riddle of some sort...

How about this: if the liquid dissolves ANYTHING, where is it?
Like, it can't be in a jar, or even in a thick-walled steel vault...
If it existed on Earth, the Earth would dissolve, right?
(Well, at least all the preachers and lawyers would pouff away)

You posted a riddle, and Denis gave you the answer. What's wrong with the help you've already received?

Ask the chemist, "Where did you discover it?"
No matter what he says, follow up with, "Why wasn't THAT dissolved?"
