Has anyone heard about this chemistry test?

Somewhere I heard about this chemistry test where the students (advanced level) are locked in the chem lab for a few days to even a week, they’re given no food, and have nothing but the chemicals in the lab to survive? With a good enough understanding of chemistry, they should be able to mix different elements and compounds together to create organic compounds, proteins, fats, etc. Only water is unlimited, if even that. Has anyone heard about this before?

I think there would be some kinda of laws preventing a university or school (especially a school) from “locking” students somewhere without food and expecting them to get their nutrients from chemicals in the lab.
I’m sure this is an urban myth.
I’ve never heard of that. I doubt that any school would actually let that happen to their students not to mention the parents would be furious.
Not likely.
Not leagal.
I think someone is pulling your leg. I am not sure but I can’t imagine that even PhD chemists could make food in a laboratory. They can make additives but not actual food. If someone came up with a way to make food in a lab like that there would be no need for farmers.
There would be no prana or life force in those chemicals.
