This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a compound called Boron Trioxide (from the Chemistry update) with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.
In Minecraft, Boron Trioxide is one of the compounds that you can craft using the compound creator. It is available in the Chemistry Update for Minecraft Education Edition and has also been added to Minecraft Pocket Edition, Windows 10, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch (if you enable the Education Edition chemistry features in your world).
Let’s explore how to make the compound called Boron Trioxide.
TIP: To enable the Education Edition chemistry features in Minecraft PE, Windows 10, Xbox One or Nintendo Switch, toggle the Education Edition option in your world settings. Because Education gameplay may break your world, the game will make a copy of your world starting with [EDU]. This is the world that will contain the new Chemistry “features”.
Required Materials to make Boron Trioxide
In Minecraft, these are the materials you can use to craft the compound called Boron Trioxide:
2 Boron 3 Oxygen
How to craft Boron Trioxide
1. Open the Compound Creator Menu
First, open your compound creator so that you have the Compound Creator menu that looks like this:
2. Add Items to make Boron Trioxide
In the Compound Creator menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3×3 grid. To make Boron Trioxide, place 2 Boron and 3 Oxygen in the 3×3 grid.
When crafting Boron Trioxide, you can place the elements anywhere in the grid and you will get the same result. In this example, we have placed 2 Boron and 3 Oxygen in the second row. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for the compound called Boron Trioxide which has the chemical formula of B2O3.
Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct elements, the Boron Trioxide will appear in the output box on the right.
