  • Hi! While I'm working on a more interesting video about alkali metals, I decided to edit a simple video about the reaction of anhydrous hydrazine with copper compounds. Enjoy!

      Hi! It's possible but 250g of SiH4 will cost me $2000 + expensive reducer for that gas cylinder. I'm not sure yet whether it's worth spending money on it or buying something else.

    ohhh WWWOOOOOOWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that copper mirror looks AMAZING!!!! and those formations REALLY DO look JUST LIKE the CRATERS ON THE MOON!!!! Maybe it's from left over fluid sticking to the mirrored surface and pulling it towards the center... 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂ - what if you were to allow the fluid to remain in the flask for an extended period of time, would it build up a thick enough layer that it won't be so fragile? then you could put some type of coating over it to protect it from touch... maybe epoxy 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂ - I have NEVER seen a coper mirror.. yea I've seen polished pieces of copper that had a mirrored surface, but they are nearly impossible to to get it perfectly flat and end up with a perfect mirror.... it's the same with and silver metal... that's why we use a similar technique to make the mirrors we all have in our homes... but a COPPER MIRROR?? I don't think ANYONE has done that before!!! - THIS SOUNDS LIKE A JOB FOR NILE RED!!!! lol
    - And that last reaction was SO UNIQUE!!! the way it changed to a shiny copper metal for a bit was unexpected, but then changing to a ton of shades of blue-green and grey that were all matte and the textures of it all moving around... HOLY MOLY THAT WAS TRIPPY!!!!
    - - - PLEASE DO MORE COPPER REACTIONS!!!!! I would think it's fairly cheap and the colors you get from it are BEAUTIFUL!!! Even just heating a piece of pure solid copper gives a a rainbow of colors... I'm guessing specific heats give specific colors... that would be cool and simple...but not easy!!! lol :) - THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN!!!!

    Do the "craters" correspond to drops of solution remaining in the flask? My guess is that the copper film doesn't have any adherence to the glass, but is attracted to droplets of solution by surface tension, causing the "puckering" effect.
