This might be the only Magic card name that directly references a phenomenon from chemistry.

Wonderful and essential when it was first printed, nowadays this guy's slightly less useful than Nature's Claim in Constructed sideboards, where 4 life's a small price to pay for the added versatility. It's still "strictly better" than Smelt, if you allow color variation in your definition of 'strictly.'

@Eternal_Blue:
It's safe to say green hates artifacts more, since I could actually see red having artifacts in some form or another. Goblins like to tinker and make things too, often dangerous things prone to self-destruction.

Artifacts go against green's entire philosophy. Green cares more about how unnatural and offensive they are than how much red cares about how much fun they are to smash and how hard they are to make.

White has always had erase. Its too bad green didn't get "exile target artifact." Especially in block with Darksteel stuff

No better nor worse than Naturalize. Less complete than Naturalize because it doesnt remove Enchantments, but is only 1 cmc. It doesnt matter that much since these days artifacts are generally much better than enchantments. In the end, strictly better than Shatter, and it fits since green is The most artifact-hating color.
